hello, i need to lift very heavy, rolled up bounce houses by myself into a truck. would a teamstrap work for individual workers?

If by individual you mean just one person doing all the heavy lifting and loading, I don´t think so. For heavy furniture and big appliances, you need at least 2 people, each at oposite ends of the teamstrap. I hope this helps you. :)

Absolutely will not work for an individual. As the name implies, the strap is for a team...of two.

We had trouble with two of us using the straps trying to move and empty tall freezer. It was awkward.

It may handle the weight if you are lifting just one corner. But you would have to put a block btween the jack pad and the point under the Hummer as it will not lift it high enough for your needs. That would be my opinion.

Mine is lowered, an easy-go 6person. Seems to me it would work as long as the lift is to ridiculeous. Like a mud rider.

It will lift both wheels but wont be stable. Works great for one wheel at a time

I don't believe that the lifter would handle that kind of weight, even to raise one side for placement of sliders. I really like mine, but it has its limits. Maybe you can rent some piece of equipment for this project instead of having to buy it. It's possible that the safe couldn't be moved back into place right away, though, which could lead to more rental expense. (My husband and my son once moved an 800-pound safe from a truck bed, across carpeted floors and into an interior room, and I thought they would both end up in the hospital. Moving your safe around the room should be much easier. The hardest part is tilting it to put something underneath in order to slide it - and tilting again to remove whatever you have put underneath.)

Hi Colleen,I don't see why not. We never had any one person get towed. I'm thinking it might make it tow a little crooked because the weight isn't distributed or centered. sorry I couldn't help you more.

Actually never heard of nor saw anyone using a snatch block this way. Is it safe to do so? Seems to be a good way to tear up the truck or any standing nearby should a cable break...

A heavy duty hand truck will also work or a couple of very strong men. It is very heavy to scoot around on the floor.

We have been pulling by hand,- we go from camp site to dump station............ so guess it would depend on how far that would be for you.. Safe isn't an issue. More, how much energy do you have. Full it is heavy. The additional handle that you can buy is definitly worth it as it enables one to stand straight rather than stoop. It is a good product. They say one can pull behind car/truck as well. We have never had that great of a distance where we felt it necessary. We do like it. And would buy again.

Garage is a great place to use the solohitter. As long as you have enough room to swing you should be fine.

The pitmen arm puller should work well up 1 ton trucks. Use a little heat if the puller gets tight and it will pop off. Leave the nut on a few threads to prevent the arm from slamming to the ground.

This unit will work fine, but not if you're trying to use it by yourself in those areas. It's heavy and you really need to have both hands on it. It's made for someone else to use on you.

I used it exclusively for picking up women. If you have men trapped in your walls you may want to hire a contractor and alert the local news.

it would have to be a strong drill, air impact would probly work better but then the threads would probly come out. i used a 1/2 rachet with a socket i made just for the lift..the threads came out of the block..its a POS and i would not recomend except for light light duty couple times a year. if you value your hands and fingers get a better lift. read my review and use you own jusdment

I do not know from personal experience but I have heard that it would. I did use a hoist and pulled myself up with it and it held me just fine. Hope it helps.

The Potlifter could handle the weight, it's the size of the load that might be a problem. Since the lifter is made up of straps, "holding" or attaching it to concrete blocks might present a dangerous problem. If the blocks slipped out of the straps someone would have some really sore toes! Getting the blocks to stay in the lifter would be a real concern for me.

This one isn't that powerful so I wouldn't recommend it. This company does sell one that would handle your need for varying depth and also climbs walls too.
