Be careful going over the boarder with that thing. Radar imagery will pick you up every time, lol. Bring a couple of photos so you can splain that contraption, - Just kidding!

You don't have to get the bed all the way off, but getting it at least eight inches to a foot off of the frame really helps a lot. It also isn't the heaviest thing ever for how big it is. Two able-bodied friends could probably do a lot, they lift one end while you put a block underneath. Best of luck.
