Hey everyone - just to close the loop for anyone searching in the future, here is the rest of the story: *I was actually hoping the crushed stone would arrive before the forklift - and I would just find a way to get it onto a tarp on a pallet or two...but the forklift came first. *He walked on the ground and assessed it to be okay...the wettest spot was on my own lawn - and he did leave a couple ruts about 2-3" deep...but didn't tear the lawn up at all. *And that was a 7,000lb forklift and a 1.5ton load. *When the dump truck came - his rig is a 26,000lb truck, with another 10,000 of material and he wouldn't even attempt it. *He said that the 1" plywood would do absolutely nothing except get pulverized. *He dumped on a tarp on the lawn and we moved by hand - took about 80 trips with the wheelbarrow less than heaping. *My back is definitely sore today. *Thanks again. Your back will feel better the next time you do it. ;) Glad it worked out for you. R |
