Or a "H" frame for lifting cube chapes

You get pallet trucks that are battery operated

 

Cheap electric powered pallet trucks from £1295

 

Not practical on rough terrain though. Where I deliver its normally up a muddy farm track

Is it possible to get a trailer close enough to where they want the ibc dropping? If so how about a mini skip lorry type trailer setup? I have considered something simular for moveing portable jumbs about the place without the need of a loader on site all the time.

Trailers are not really feasible due to a lot of single tracks and lack of turnaround space.

There was a yellow one on ebay a couple of times last year, it was in Sunderland and price was about £12k. I'm sure the same motor was also in one of the Land Rover magazines so I will see if I can find the article because it had the guys details in.

That's the one I was on about, I really fancied it.

Having driven a trantor in the late 70s i can tell you that they are a good tool up around

60mph in high range towing an empty tanker all with air brakes and not a bad thing to work on

I would avoid an Agrover at all cost! They had terrible portal drop boxes at the axle ends that contained chains and suffered from massive amounts of backlash when you took off or changed gear. These chains stretched really quickly and rattled and clunked. Buy a mog!!
