    Gotta love deliveries in Duluth(San Francisco North: It's on a bay, gets lots of fog, and has 90% grades for streets). Try to take off from the stop sign that some buckethead thought was a good idea to put in the middle of a hill, and arrive at your next stop to find two eight-foot pallets of smokes all crashed over. The individual cartons aren't labeled for any store, so you have to read through the bills and find how many of Every. Single. Type. of cigs the customer ordered and put them all back together again. :biggrin_25516:

    I don't miss that.

    This is is one of my favorite techniques. Use the clipboard to add an extra top layer to the dolly

    This is one was to a marina. 100'+ dock to take it down plus the distance between the dock and the parking lot. Got out of there in 2 loads thanks to this type of stacking

    No pics, its not my route anymore but he was holding the handtruck with an arm over is shoulder like he was scratching his back, he was probably only 5 foot4 tops so his shoulder was a lot closer to the handle

    Im trying to figure out how I would get down the ramp like that though. And I'm close to 6'. But I've gone down the ramp with a load proly twice. Almost ended terribly both times. I can't imagine how I could take 2 down fully loaded

    He had an electric pallet jack and liftgate, but he had to deliver to a second story restaurant on pier 39. The company was BiRite out of Brisbane, CA
