I have some dirt to move but I don’t have a bucket for the tractor.

I bladed some dirt together that I will load using a five gallon bucket.

I’m gonna put it on a tarp and leave enough that I can back up on it and pull the dirt off as I back up.

I’m gonna go with this test load before I really put a load on.

Should work, right?

You shoveled into a bucket, then picked it up into the truck?
Why didn't you just shovel directly into the truck?

Or better yet, use the grader to spread all that dirt out and you wouldn't have to touch the shovel... at all. grin grin

Why not just spread with a shovel instead of going through all the steps.

I didn’t touch a shovel. I scooped the dirt/sand up with the bucket and dumped it in the truck.

The place I needed the material was about 200 yds from the loading spot.
