[QUOTE="gman042, post: 906598, member: 36560"] This is the way I do it. However.....this is not UPS dictated use of handtruck. They say that allowing gravity to pull the load out of the truck puts too much stress on your back. I had this argument with supervisor. I said....."Okay....so it is allowable for me to pull a fully loaded handtruck up 3 flights of stairs to make a delivery? You don't think that would put my back out? I am working against gravity and friction when I have those forces working FOR me when lowering the hand truck from the vehicle." They tell us to work smart buy don't allow it. [/QUOTE]
