Hi,
I might be buying a pin from the Toronto area and need to transport it in a couple weeks to the London area. Are there any reliable door-to-door companies that you guys use to move pinball machines? I was hoping for set-up too. I'm kind of stumped on how to move it without doing it myself and unfortunately my back and elbow won't allow it. When I moved houses prior, the moving company moved my current one but they were VERY inexperienced at moving them properly despite claiming they had moves a lot of pins.

Any help appreciated.
thanks!

He's a mover not a pinhead he gets it in the door and that's it....unless there is extra $$$$ involved would be my guess. 2 Machines in 1 trip from London to Toronto for $150 but that was 2-3 years ago

Hi find myself in the same predicament as you. I want to move a machine from the GTA to Wiarton area. Did you ever find somebody to move your pin?

Wiarton is pretty far up North but you could try to arrange something with Dave Astill. He isn't a dedicated moving company but he does offer transport, move in and setup of pins for people that buy from him. He lives up in the Collingwood area and sometimes does make trips into Toronto so you could perhaps coordinate something with him to pick it up on his way back and compensate him for his time and travel expenses. If you want shoot me a PM for his email address or else you can send him a private message here:
