Unloading a truck can be quite a task with this stuff.
For that
reason I always rent a truck with a hydraulic tail (or what the
proper name is for it).
We used to do that a lot for museum stuff - but the problem there is that some
of the bigger machine cabinets only fit on the tail-lift with an inch or so to
spare - we were always paranoid that one was going to just drop straight off
the back.
Ramps seem a bit better *if* you've got the necessary cables/straps to safely
cope with the distance/weight.
(I'm having the reverse to the unloading issue right now - we've got a huge
cabinet in the basement of our house that I want to get back up to ground
level, and working against gravity rather than with it is a major pain!)
