Nickelodeon Moving Story
By Dan Wilson, London

Mark Forer gave a harrowing tale of brutal movers' treatment of
a nickelodeon in 000412 MMDigest.

There's a company in the UK that specializes in moves of really
sensitive equipment that can't even be cased or wrapped.  The shipment
merely has to be small enough to fit on the back of a flatbed truck
which has a demountable tilt to protect it from rain.  The transport is
door-to-door only, customer loads and unloads.  The firm is called PET
-- I forget what the P stands for but the rest is Electronic Transport.
You pay around 80% more than a standard move.  Everything is wholly
insured.

I can't believe there aren't exactly similar operations in the States.
Maybe a look at the PET web site might yield some clues.
