[QUOTE="mattwtrs, post: 454807, member: 1187"] Back in the 70's we had steel hand carts that weighed at least 35 lbs. themselves. One day I was delivering to a trophy shop that was owned by a weight lifter. I had a shipment of marble trophy bases that I loaded on the cart. I couldn't tilt the cart back & the owner saw my predicament. He commented, "you dam skinny UPS drivers need to work out liftin' weights!" He helped me tilt the cart and as I was unloading the cart he started laughing. I asked what was so funny? He had the packing list in hand and he showed me the weight was 500 lbs. He then commented if you deliver 500 lbs to one stop you probably handle a couple of tons just in deliveries every day. [/QUOTE]
