I always put 2 ratchet straps over and around the drawers so they can't open when they are being moved, as well as the locks being locked. Up here, when guys switch from one job to another, a lot use the towing company's slidebacks to move the bigger boxes. It works well. There is a hell of a lot of weight in a 6ft box.

Myself, I just use my 4x8 utility trailer and move things that way. I put the side rails in the pockets and it holds things upright quite well. That little trailer has moved more crap than I would of even realized if I hadn't used it myself. It's just nice to have a source to haul things with available without going out to rent one.

I'm emptying the roller, it's at least 400 lbs empty. Packing my smaller boxes and using those milk cartons for the rest. Those Milk cartons can take some weight.

Help me first...depends how I feel after that lol.

I started today.... took two truck loads of tools and parts over to the storage locker. I've got the tool boxes out, and I am just waiting to get them out. I didn't realize I had so much stuff.

Question again...

Those hooks in the beds of these F150's.... do you think they would take the abuse of hooking a come along in there and pulling the boxes in with the come along?
