At the following pics you can see how I move my 280 kg/ 617 lbs pumpkin from the pumpkin patch and up on the trailer. I’m alone and therefore you can’t see me at any of the pics. All I need to do this is: two iron tubes (square 50x50 mm/ 2”x2”) with oil on and an iron-bar lever and of course I must grow the pumpkin on a thick plywood, which I always do. This technique makes it possible to handle really heavy pumpkins without using a truck or a crane.
