Asking just in case there is another option! No access to shed floor from underneath. How big a piece? Same size as washer or bigger?

Marine Plywood, as thick as you can get. use a full sheet and put both washer and dryer on it.

Some of the new front loaders [especially Samsung and LG, [[also sold as Kenmores] will shut down and code if they vibrate to much on spin.

I do not have a license to kill, but I do have a learner's permit.

I feel like I'm living the movie "Idiocracy" with this administration.

"Share the Wealth" my arse, HIDE the wealth is more like it.
