    How come those coils can not be loaded shotgun style to keep the center of gravity lower? Are they thinner gauge metal and susceptible to collapsing if laid down?

    They are very thin aluminum. Laying um on their side could damage. No chains allowed, must have plastic, and tarped. They are very protective of their coils.
