Moving Large Containers

Nyboy, I worry that you might get hurt. Yes, you've ordered that cart but how are you going to lift those heavy pots to put them in? I hope you have a friend helping you when you do it.

Lesa your tractor isn"t a old it is vintage !! I have a small sears one from the early 70s. Mary you are so sweet. For the record I am talking about using blue 55gallon drums for planters, filled with dirt a couple hundred pounds.
 
Nyboy, I'm going to nag you like mom. Make sure when you lift the pot you squat and tighten your core. It would also be nice if you used one of those belts like the home depot guys use. You can still hurt yourself even with 200lb pot if you're not careful.

Off topic (surprise!:rolleyes:) but speaking of tractors we are going to go take a look at a 1947 Farmall Cub that I saw on CL. It's in our neighborhood too.

It's so darn cute.

I'm pretty sure that's one of the most important things you should check for when purchasing a tractor.

labor day weekend I went to empty a mop pail, felt something pull in my back thought this isnt't going to be good. could stand straight for a week after. Pain would make me cry. Could not believe the drugs clients carried on them and offered, Winona Ryder would have been in heaven. Bays right I do have my talents ( I make a mean cocktail) but being butch isn't one of them. Bob you must have a body like a greek god to be able to do all that, all I can say is Lucky wife God bless!
