What does it take to move a Planta greenhouse?

Preparing to move a 10' x 26' greenhouse is no small undertaking.

The first step was to locate a fairly flat location and prepare it to accept the greenhouse.

Once the new site was selected, it was time to level the ground and prepare the new footing to match the footing at the original location.
Once leveled out, the new footing was put into place with T-posts to keep everything in place and provide anchoring.

Preparing the greenhouse for the move requires disconnecting it from the existing footer and placing it on boards to act as the new footer.
Once it is secured, straps and other wood are used to keep it square.

Once all secured, the greenhouse was gently slid off of the old footing and into the yard where it was raised in order to accomodate two sets of dolly wheels.
With the aid of a lawn tractor, the greenhouse was moved on top of the new footing and secured.

After a week or 2 of effort, the Planta 26 is finally in place.
