House Moving

Having our stick built house moved 38 miles from the Skyway area of Colorado Springs to Penrose, Colorado by Mammoth Structural Movers.

Below is a picture of the house we are having moved. The house is 1250 square feet with a two car-attached garage. This picture was taken before preparations to move the house.
