I have recently purchased a used clark c500 s80 8000lbs capacity forklift and would like to know its weight I am guessing 13k or so. The forklift is not running and I must now move it to a different location a few miles down the road. I have a way of getting it on a truck but no way of getting it off. I have checked with a couple of the local tow truck drivers but they say it is to heavy for their rollbacks! The only other idea was to rent a large forklift and maybe just pick it up and drive it over to the new location which is only a mile or so. Sorry for the long winded ? Any help would be great. TIA Nick

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
