I used my factory's forklift... But a local builder had a barbacue party with free iced Corona Beer in his shop,,, All the members of the Airclub were invited...
Not all were present but at least double the hands need.
One important thing: For Safety first unload the box, then start the party. Timing this is Very Important!

Hi Mike,
'fraid a lift gate won't help - the crate is too big.
Some folks consider just shoving the box off the truck, but some
others think this is extreme. I went to the freight terminal with a
U-haul and then pulled the crate off the U-haul with my little
tractor (Kubota - small but a lot of heart and a three cylinder diesel engine).
I like your idea of a ramp of some sort, but that doesn't solve all
the issues. You still need to figure how to move the 800 pound box
to the ramp and then from the ramp to your storage location.
I wonder if there are some equipment movers in your area. They are
experts on this sort of thing.
Good luck,
Paul

shipper's truck and into their shop. All 8 reply's are from
2002, so thought
I'd ask again for any new feedback on this subject. Shipper's terminal's
are 2 hours from me North or South, so I'm planning on
them bringing the kit to
house. They can back their truck up to my shop, but how do I get box off
truck?
