Hi Guys This one is mainly for vendors. Iam thinking of buying a 8ft 1ton payload loading ramp so i can load and unload with a pallet truck. The real question is is it common to have to book a luton tail lift for less than 4plts just trying to think of different services to accommodate my van too. With Thanks in advance

Will that work? Have you worked out your loading angles etc, could be a very hard pull up a ramp with a 500kg load on a pallet truck, and then the angle at the top of the ramp. Just a thought.

I carry round a 2.4metre alloy ramp but because of the angles it is only useful for light pallets, flightcases and hospital stuff on casters. Thats apart from loading mmotorcycles safely which was the reason it was purchased.

Not impossible to rig up a small electric winch which pull the pallet truck up the ramp if the work is semi-regular.

With all that gear on board you won't be able to carry a ton pallet especially if its a sprinter they only take just over a ton wihtout all that extra baggage on board
