Like said earlier, pull it across the yard, yes.
Pull it down the highway, no way would I try.
Seeing as you are only pulling it 200 feet, I would do it.
But also like stated, pics please.:toothy12:
As far as $300 to have a professional move it, I don't think that is too far out of line. He has to drive a rig to your location, take the time to hook it properly, allow time for the unexpected, take responsibility for damages if they are his fault, pay insurance, drive the rig back and make enough money to pay for that rig and still feed his family. Depending on where he is located vs you, he could easily have $50 in fuel cost alone not counting other expenses and could easily spend a good portion of the day out there. Sure, $300 is a lot of money but by the time you figure in all the expenses, he might walk with $150-$200.
