Sorry about that.
Nononono hahaha. I would never put a lot of weight in my bed. Especially considering it has rusted through holes in it. I would acquire a trailer. I do want better shocks though. Not sure what to get

Tractor Supply rents trailers all day long. Just a thought.

They don't really rent large trailers do they?

Home depot wont work with you if you ask them to put it on 2 pallets? I feel like they would.

3k lbs is enough weight to bend the axle tubes. Rent a uhaul for $20 and save your truck.

Rent the truck from Home depot or have them deliver it.

Large enough for a 3,000 lb load.

This isn't making sense to me. Home depot will only load as much as you specify. No way in hell are they going to sell pavers only in one load. Can you not lift or handle a single paver ? Are you that weak ?

Being a mile away, I wouldn't waste time borrowing a trailer...commoonnn. Sorry, but this thread has gone completely stupid...ridic-cluelessly so.

It will be work enough after you get them home. Have Home Depot deliver, save your truck and your back.

I guess I am ballsy or stupid. But I would do it. That's a very short distance....

The drive train would be able to handle it for sure, just the suspension would be the issue.... Home Depot rents trailers.
