Can someone give me some advice on the best non-tractor way to lift the 500lb kin into the trailer? Pallet, tarps??

You can easily do it with a tarp and 4 strong people. one that size can be lifted with a ring and an engine lift as well. Tried and true without tractor is a tripod but the tarp and 4 people is faster and cheaper!

Easy with a tarp or heavy quilt, for safety figure 100 lbs per person, however me and BiZ handled his 271 with a lifting tarp. Good Luck, and check the bottom......

Thanks guys! WiZ- do you think the blue tarps would hold?
