How many 33.5kg concrete paving patio slabs...
 

...can you fit in a 3.5 tonne box van.

Well the guy who bought my 145 slabs (4.85 tons) thought he could carry them all. We did the money transfer, I showed him the slabs and left him to it. He then knocks the door a couple of hours later asking for a bit of advice.

"Do you think I might have to take some off?" He says.

The fuel tank is touching the floor and the tyres look flat.

"Yes" I said. "About half of them if not more".

"Bugger" came the reply. "Was hoping I could do it in one trip".

"Try about three trips" I said.

So I left him off loading the slabs again.

Nice of you to give him a hand.

I was waiting for that one. :lol:

The only reason I was there at all is I am off work with a neck injury. I warned him before he came I would be unable to help with the loading. ;-)

I am confused.. its a 7.5 tonne box van, if the vehicle weighs 2 tonne wet with driver surley he could take them all?

How much does the 7.5 tonne truck weigh?
