The forklift I will use doesn't have an extendable boom and would probably lift 10000# though it would probably be unsafe to lift it very high.
If all else fails there is a guy a half mile down the road that runs a sawmill with a large front end loader. We've had him move stuff before and I'm sure I could get him to help me out.
So, in short.......I'm not worried about it.
