        Before you take them down, devise a plan of action, number all sections with marker pen and take lots of photos so you and put them up in the right order.

          I agree with everyone else, take them. Depending how far you have to move them take the glass out and dismantle them as little as possible. If in walking distance keep the frames intact or if farther move as six panels: 4 sides and 2 roof. They'll fit on a roofrack or in the back of a van easily.

            Can you join the 2 together to make a 14x6?

                You can "walk" a complete GH quite easily (without the glass obviously). Just make sure that you have 6' clearance through gateways etc

                  Do have them and don't wait and do get help and don't forget to sit in there on sunny days. Not helpful I know

                      And if you can't fit them both on your plot, you could walk 5 mins in the other direction and put them up on mine!!!
