Vibration Misery! Please help

I have a 4 ton 14 seer Ruud heat pump that replaced my former 4 ton 13 seer Gibson Little over 2 yrs ago. The outdoor unit has always been located outside of my bedroom. Vibration is occuring when the unit turns on in heat mode making it difficult to sleep as the vibration is physically felt in my body. HVAC company has done all they know to do. Naturally they're not feeling it when here and doesn't seem to be as pronounced during the day. But is every night!! I even put heavy duty husky brand vibration pads under my bed posts and this has not worked. I called the manufacturer who tells me to call my HVAC contractor. I'm at a loss and could use some advice from anyone who has experienced or solved a vibration issue like this. I need my sleep and the stress is mounting. Additionally the outdoor unit is emitting a lot of water during defrost that's resulted in the pad and ground around it becoming a block of ice in below freezing temps. Unit on risers. I've never had any of these issues in the 14 yrs I had my Gibson.
