    The lightest I have ever seen loaded is 3 tons. The heaviest was 12 tons. Since it is not full to the top, my guess is 5,500 pds. assuming most of it is sheet metal.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    7,920 pounds. I guess Patriot was the closest lol. Too bad I was only getting 60/ton minus 100 for the bin. But, theres no way I could haul that for $100

    Best guess there was more than sheet in the bottom. Congrats, you have found a great way to play middle man.

    The bottom layer was appliances and there was also a motor cycle in there. We also crushed everything down with a tractor
