Moving a VAX 6000

I just got a VAX 6000. More details on the system itself will come later.
Right now, I need to move it the short distance from its warehouse it my
garage. I will probably do this tomorrow. I want to run my logistics plan by
the list and see if there are any problems.

Basically, my idea is to borrow my parents' utility trailer, throw an old
mattress (which I have) in it, lay the VAX on its side on top of the
mattress, and tie down. 3.5 miles later, we'll slide the VAX off and push it
upright. Repeat the process to get the other cabinet.

My only concern ATM is laying the VAX on its side. That won't damage the
enclosure, will it?
