I've bought the accessory Muck Truck towbar, fits to the front of the skip on pins. It says rated to 2ton trailer, although I've never tried to use it for that weight - imagine the wheels would spin.

 

I have a towbar on my muck truck, I'm sure it could move 2 ton, on flat tarmac though. 

Mine could move my 1.4 ton chipper on flat road planings, but can't do it up a slope on the same surface.

Looking forward to seeing how well my mini loader will shifts it, could make things a lot easier 🤞👍

I read somewhere that some big yankee chippers have movers as well.   I think the best answer is a small wheeled loader with a tow hitch on the fixed grab. The loader is a game changer
