4 - Wheel the server to your trailer.
5 - Set up ramps on your trailer
6 - Use a winch, come-along, or more ratchet straps to pull the pallet jack up your ramps and onto your trailer.
7 - Done.
Getting it was actually really easy. It rolled well and only problem we had was getting it out of the elevator. Having the drop down trailer was a life saver and a investment im willing to make to get one. Scrapyaherd has the photos of it. could definitely tell we had some serious weight today.
Server came out to 2300 lbs
laptops- 678 lbs
power supplies-133
Another job done by Dune and Scrapyaherd! The right equipment makes the job hella easy. I'd highly recommend the drop trailer, that thing is all sorts of bad a$$. Except for using the pallet jack for 2 seconds to jack the front lip up to get it out of the elevator we literally rolled the server out of the building and onto the trailer.

Good job, did you gring it right to the buyer or did you bring it to the house?
We took a quick look inside and closed the door up to say goodbye. Trailer was a one day rental, and the buyer closes early.
