I assume you've already got a good method thought up for marking them.
However, I found when moving my /44 that a roll of 1 inch masking tape and
a felt tip marker works good for this. You can use the masking tape to
make tags on the cables or to stick on the hardware so you don't have to
write on it.

If you can get a liftgate I'd seriously recommend it. If you can't get
gloves, steel toed shoes, and help. I still remember unloading my TU-81+
by myself at my storage unit. About took my knuckels off, then got it
stuck in the crack of the elevator door. Which brings up something else.
A sheet of metal for placing on the ground so you can roll over it instead
of difficult spots in the ground.
