[QUOTE="stoney, post: 1073, member: 34"] I use this method as well and it works great, I use a split board down first, then escape board then 5-6 FD boxes.. while I’m still working the site I’ll leave escapes on top as well which helps empty supers as they’re drawn up to the light, if robbing is an issue I switch the top escape for a mat , tie the stacks with mini strops and pop back to collect another day. you can stack them on pallets on the trailer as well.. chock the wheels.. come back in a couple days hook her up and drag it to extraction. Means the hives aren’t stacked up too high with all the weight on the top [/QUOTE]
