>  A good large-tire handtruck is worth its weight in honey.
 
Costco sells a really good red hand truck for about $30 CAD (21US).  With
an appropriate ramp and properly designed floors, such carts are capable
of moving hives and/or stacks of supers very nicely without any lifting.
I once moved a whole yard (25 hives heavy doubles) using such an
arrangement and a small trailer with no effort at all.
 
Buy the simple one, not the one that comes apart etc.
