Ah, I was unaware that small forklift belonged to us. Do we have a pallet jack too or would we have to purchase one? In a storage area like this where everything is on the floor, I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing that the forklift doesn't fit (though it would be optimal to find warehouse storage where we could continue to use it.) Anyone can operate a pallet jack as opposed to the few that could drive the forklift. A group focused on recycling shouldn't be too worried about exerting a little bit of human effort instead of using a large machine that would be overkill :) Tony > Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2009 13:03:05 -0400 > From: tbrown@xxxxxxxxxxxx > To: frgeek-michiana@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [frgeek-michiana] Re: LangLab visit > > The smallest of the forklifts was in fact donated to us.
