It was probably youthful stupidity, but I transported an AlphaServer 2100
in my VW Golf 4 back in the day. I also lifted it out myself (luckily it
was on castors so just needed to make it out of the car). Sadly the machine
later died but I passed it on to a fellow Alpha-owner who stripped it for
parts.
Glad you managed to find homes for all three of them.
Cheers, MJ
