I worked for a company once that had a "Load handler" in the back of the lawn crews pickup. It was used primarily for grass clipping 95% of the time. <p>I had the pleasure of dumping it a few times. I wouldn't really call it a "LOAD" handler, more like a "BlOODY KNUCKLE" handler. If you have ever used one, the crank on the tail gate is a bear. To begin, you always have to shovel out about 2/3 of a full truck of clippings before it really moves. Then, when you get there, you have to fight with the handle.<p>As you crank it, the handle pulls up on the tail gate and you end up getting no where. Then, you start getting mad, try to muscle it, and bam, the tail gate goes up and you bang your knuckes on the back of the pickup bed. Not a good feeling.<p>I love the advertisements for it. They show this guy unloading like a ton of 3/4 crushed stone out of his truck. It's funny if you ever watched it. The guys rolls the stone out perfectly while his wife or someone else inches along the driveway and the stone is layed perfectly across the ground. NOT THE CASE.<p>Now, for all intensive purposes, it is helpful for unloading the truck once it gets pretty empty. It saves some time, and I guess I would say it does earn its price tag.<p>However, it is not the dream dumper that they make it out to be.
