What do you use to load those logs on the truck and trailer?

I agree....maybe more

Most of the time we load truck and trailer with Stu's mini. It is Vermeer S800tx with Branch Manager grapple or pallet forks. I found Stu's mini in Oklahoma City at the Vermeer dealer. Rate lift is 800 lbs and tipping is 2800 lbs. Now using smooth track to protect the lawns. It is a tank. Lots of pulling power and then pivot to feed the chipper. Stu claims it does the work of 3 or 4 people and is never late or sick (hangover).

Saturday I used my Bobcat Toolcat with a heavy duty grapple. It is rated for 2000 lb lift.

I am going to unwatch this thread It is depressing.

I know and I agree. The tractor, skid steer, mini-skid steer, dump truck, etc. posts/threads are depressing. It is just me, my saws, 2 wheel barrows, a dolly, and a non-dumping 16 ft trailer. I envy the heavy equipment owners for sure.

Happy Easter everybody....
