How to load riding mower in bed

If you are picking it up from the deere dealer then they will likely have a loading dock. Back your truck it. It will be shorter than the dock but at least the difference in height is alot less.

 

I have used 2x6's to load mine into the back of my truck for the past 6 or 7 years and haven't changed them yet.... Im 215lbs plus the wieght of the lawnmower.... The only change is the boards don't lay flat now.... but that just started the past year. I do have metal attachments onto the truck that you lay on the tailgate and not have the boards on it themselves....
