was thinking very hard :
Why not fix a pulley to a rafter, make a suitable sling/carrier and
attach it to a rope, temporarily install a pal/child/wife in the loft,
and just haul things up for the aforementioned pal/etcetera to unload?
I find a robust 10 gallon plastic bucket (old chemical container), with
a metal handle works well.
I use large garden waste bags such as these

That may solve part of the problem. I need to discover what weight they
can handle. Thamk you for that.

Pick-up a used 1m3 "builder's bag" from a building site, I think they're
rated to 1T (for things like sand, soil and ballast) but will certainly
be adequate for your needs. They have 4 handles (and a couple of
forklift loops) so would be very easy to put a rope through - and free!
Surely quite impossible to get up through the loft hatch though.
errr - they're bags so are flexible
