    It's a hail mary approach but if you park on an inclined patch of ground, basically anyplace your trailer will come close to dragging the ground, you have the equivalent of a level loading ramp. Then if need be, drive over blocks (2 x 6 cut square) just at the point you may need an extra few inches.

    Either that^^^ or lots of 2x8's. For under your drive tires and to elevate the box truck. Hope it pays good lol.

    And this is a prime example of actually using the brain one was blessed with, compared to most folks who just rattle it around in their noggins. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

    Yep, I tell my drivers to always look for a "mechanical advantage" when loading/unloading, exactly like in the photo, just a subtle wallow in a parking lot can make a huge difference in loading deck height and angle depending on whether your trailer axles are IN the hole or in FRONT of the hole!
