I think UPS said mine was 165. That included what I shipped it in too.

I shipped one in a crate I made out of wood and got it right at 149lbs with a digital bathroom scale. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 

It's usually 125lbs with packaging when I use a 20x20x20 box and THICK foam.

I shipped one via FedEx in a cardboard box with a wooden bottom in it to FL with no problem. The only catch was that it had to go to a business according to FedEx but that was no problem.

Strange we are all getting different numbers. I guess I was overcharged.

So, how much does it really weigh?
 

I've shipped a dozen or so in the last couple years and that's always what mine weigh. 120-130lbs with packaging. I'll weigh 2 from the shop just to see what the bathroom scale comes up with.
 

I shipped one and swear it was like 150... its right around the limit.... I had a hookup thou and we claimed it weighed less. I packaged it in a nice tuperware thing with handles and the driver didnt mind lifting it i guess.... they know when its too heavy.... He just hooked it up somehow...




there are a few good threads on this!!!! LEt me see if I can dig something up for you...

Someone dug it up for me!
