Moving

I'd think that a good dolly could move those. Sure, they'd get shaken up a bit in the move, but would settle back down.

I have a demijohn but it's old, it has no basket. I would move the barrel intact but put a moving strap over the bung; I would break the carboy down into smaller carboys and seatbelt them in a car. The glass on mine looks pretty thin, I won't even pick it up more than half full, too awkward.
