Brockport Bill 1,871 #36 Posted May 7 here is suggestion to go pick up a tractor --- Option #1 get a friend with a pick up truck and ramps to go with you to pick up the tractor -----Option # 2 -- find a friend with a vehicle car or truck with trailer hitch then rent a local Uhaul trailer with ramp -- simple and cheap $ for one day rental. Option # 3 if you want to avoid a round rip with a Uhaul then do a OneWay rental for a Uhaul - pick up trailer near the tractor location destination and simply load it and then return the trailer to local Uhaul location near you. Option # 4 -- rent a van or pick up one day rental from Home Depot -- cheap $ - they have trucks with hitches or just load the tractor in the truck or van -- lots easier if you do not want to rental trailer -- #5 ask around at your work or network of friends - you will likely find someone you know who owns a small tow behind type landscape trailer with ramp thats sitting in their back yard , #6 -- locally here in NYS the Tractor Supply stores have inventory of small trailers for rent or also provide them to customers who have reward points at their store ---- Lastly - - if you load a tractor in a truck suggest you do NOT ride the tractor into pick up instead put in low gear and let the tractor slowly drive up into truck with you guiding it -- Good luck 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My truck won't handle over 200 lbs. It's also got the original wood bed in it. Took a few of the metal strips out, so I wouldn't put anything valuable within. I did think of the Home Depot truck rental, if I find something local. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
