This is how we heat our upstairs using wood pellets. They get one-two ton of pellets put on our truck and then we off load each 40lb. bag of them by hand. Very hard work for a person at any age. I got it in my head we needed a better way to get these into our shop so we can stack them. I wanted loading rollers ever since I saw them used at a Tuesday Mornings warehouse/store a decade ago.
Finally our local used warehouse supply store posed several used ones for sale. We drove an hour away to look them over and came home with one. It took us two tries to get it off our truck and back on to terra firma. It is very hot here and this is hard to do in the heat.
And here it is still strapped together.
It is over 35 feet long when stretched out. It is height adjustable and very smooth. Now we can slide the pellet bags instead of carrying them from the truck and into the shop. I am very happy with this and the future old me will be as well. The price was $225 for one used 35 ft. loading rollers set. We had to remove some stuff to make room for it. But that is another story for another time. For now we are almost set for winter.
