Transporting CDW FA288

[2DutchWesthome]

We need to replace our CDW FA288. Our relatively new insulated chimney liner is too big for modern stoves, hubby unwilling to replace. But by whatever divine intervention, I've found the exact same stove with little use, all pictures appear it to be in great condition. But it's 4 hours away. Cast iron is known to be brittle, I can access a truck, would need to hire some brawn to get this done but how do you transport such a heavy, cast iron object without cracking something. Especially something 35 years old, give or take.

At 634 pounds you are going to need an industrial equipment moving company, or have someone take it apart first.
