Moving Maytag Stacked Washer/Dryer

12 years ago

I have a Maytag Washer Dryer stacked unit, model number for the dryer: LSE7800, washer:LS7800.

They are at the moment sitting somewhat in the middle of a closet space that is 9" wider than the units. My hope is to push the unit all the way to one side of the closet to make use of the whole 9" of potential storage space. I've tried to look behind the unit but have only been able to see the drain and water hose connection through a small hand mirror I held behind it. There appears to be enough give for a slight move, any precautions or advice before I attempt this would be helpful.

Be careful not to squish the dryer vent hose. My W/D are stacked in a very tight space - getting them in there required two strong guys and movers straps under the set. Their first attempt to move them into place squeezed the dryer hose too much and they had to replace it and move them again. Works great, now.
