how much BGC track can you get into a 750kg trailer?
This morning I followed up on a lead that I got from talking to a gentleman on Anzac Day. Dropped in to a local earth moving & recycling place and recovered some lengths of BGC track that they had in their scrap pile.
The price was beer, and I will drop that off next weekend.
Utilised a forklift and chain to get the easy stuff, then had an excavator tear the scrap pile apart, pulled the track out and loaded it into a bucket tractor then dropped it into my trailer.
All up, just under 2 hours for about 25 sections of track. Some of it new and some worn out, some broken and some rusted solid.
Not all of it is useable, but I should get a fair bit that can go onto a vehicle.
