Quick question, I've managed to source some cheaps bricks but the only problem is they're an hour drive away so I have no idea what's the best way to pick them up. There's a pallet and a half left there (approx 6 - 700) which will weigh approx 1.3 tonnes. Anyone have any ideas for the best way to pick them up? Also, I'm still after more bricks (Boral Jarrah) if anyone has some spare from a build and wants to get rid of them? I'd be happy to help Tim ---------------------------------------- Building the PD Lisbon 24 http://www.porterdavis.com.au/#homeviewer/lisbon/24 Blog of our progress. http://lisbon24.blogspot.com/ Homeone build thread https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=28665 Re: Moving Bricks 2May 18, 2011 10:40 pm See if you can either hire a truck from hertz etc, or get them couriered to you. We have a dual axle trailer and that is only rated to 500kg, so by the time you do 3 x 1hr trips with a car/trailer you probably would spend more $$ on fuel than just hiring the truck in the first place!

Presumably you won't be able to get a pallet jack or anything (or it'd be too expensive), so it'll be a bit of a pain to get 'em in and out of the truck, but at least it'll be one trip!
