Bill,  Most of the commercial guys I know use a 12 to 14 foot flat bed, four
wheel drive trucks.. Eight frame can fit 10 pallets on the bed and 10 on
top, 4 hives each...I run 10 frames so I can only put eight pallets
(33"X48") on the deck and eight up..that is, story and half...on a 12 foot
bed..We use a Bobcat loader which I tow behind my truck...Makes it somewhat
easier than lifting each individual hive.
