Any ideas for transporting and moving 8x4 sheets of plasterboard from A to B without needing to go upstairs. I'm soon going to be taking a delivery of 28 sheets of soundshield board 15mm. I took a delivery of 12.5mm standard board once on my own (28 sheets) and it ****ed up my wrists for two weeks as I had to lift the board on edge and then walk it down three steps and through a door way and and then another 8 metres to lie flat. I don't want to go through that again and at the moment I'm working with an old fella who I don't feel right asking to help. All mates are out of town.
We are talking 34.27kg per sheet. It will be fine fitting them on the ceiling as I've got the use of a hoist, it's just transportation to worry about, any ideas?
N.B the boards must be placed on edge to get through the doorway into the house. If necessary I can make some formwork over the stairs to help any wheeled device, will be difficult but not impossible
