Load them on your liftgate 2 high.... Strap them to your liftgate, then run bungees around them to your grab bars!


If I hadnt been passed by a truck loaded in like manner, I wouldnt believe it... Cant believe a shipper would load it.


Didnt catch a name.. Just a door sign...

I've seen somthing similar. I saw a truck running drums stacked 3 high, 3 across & 2 rows deep like that. To be fair, the lip of the lift gate was up sp the drums would be more secure.

That's common practice in HHG. Put a picnic table or a bunch of patio furniture on the gate and strap it up! I'm not so sure drums are a good idea or legal though. I remember hearing a story of a guy with food-barrels (the blue ones) who had too many hand had chained is doors partially shut. State police pulled him over, put him out of services. He left anyway and then the chain broke. Grape gelly all over 95 in MA and cars skidding like they where on Ice on the slick the gelly left. Cops where not pleased.
