It can be handled and moved on a 2-wheeled sack barrow and easily bowled over Inflatable Slide For Sale onto a truck or trailer. Do not try to lift a complete inflatable. Lift only one end at a time. When the rolled inflatable is lying down, take up a squat position, lean a shoulder into the end and push with the legs.
