Moving Jacuzzi J-340

[mmkur]

I am trying to venture closer to spatopia and have a question in regards to moving a used J-340.  Is there a recommended way to transport the tub?  I might have access to a trailer that would allow me to transport the tub it side, but i do not think it is large enought to lay it flat.  Is there anything thing specific I should look for  while inspecting the tub?  It is currently up and running, so I do plan on making sure all the pumps, diverter, etc are working properly and inspecting the inside prior to purchase.

Thanks in advance to everyone's replies.

I got some great advice when I moved my tub, can't find it though.  Transporting it on the side is doable, I think the advice that I got was to ensure that it was equipment (pump access, etc.) side up, and to make sure to cover the shell and not expose it to direct sunlight.  spatech tuo helped me out with the move, if we're lucky he'll chime in again
