Too funny....
Unrestored or restored? For retored I take lots of blankets and duct tape. You can build a wood cradle for it to lay in as well. I have also used a dolly from U-haul (don't remember her name.....) Wrap it is blankets and then hook on to it. A guy had build apump hauler out of an old shopping card. You would hook onto it and then when you tipped it back it dat at a 45 degree angle on four wheels. Need to upgrade toa heavier wheel. I could unload and move a pump by myself easily. Good luck

If it is a pump with removable doors, remove the panels and computer face on one side. Bolt short 2x4's across the framerails in two or three places. If necessary build these out past the side panels and screw two long 2x4' to these cross pieces. [these should extend above the top of the pump] You can then tilt the pump into the back of a pickup and slide it in. Once you have it at its location, pull the pump out until the base tilts to the ground and then stand the pump up. [yes you need help] Remove the 2 x4's and re-assemble the pump. I have transported four or five pumps this way without a scratch.
