Battery removal - 2015 Vista 31KE

Another new to me question. I was looking at the battery compartment and wondered how hard it is to get the big chassis battery out and back in? Easy to get hands on but seems like an awkward lift. Well for an old guy anyway. Miss my old journey with the slide out trays :-)

Thanks
Ben

Go to the Auto Parts store or Walmart and get one of these. Still not easy, but not too bad:

Hard job! You are right that it tends to hang on everything and seems to weight lots more than they did 20 years ago???
I have an old strap with metal buckles that fits down over the battery posts and make a handle.
Something like this, maybe:
