One kind of heavy duty portable ramp is designed for maximum safety when it comes to weight transfers off a truck or trailer. These ramps are supported by legs that can be adjusted to height. Using the legs means no weight from the ramp is resting on the trailer. The ramp doesn't get pressed onto the trailer, and the transfer of weight from the vehicle to the ramp is smooth and even. These heavy duty portable ramps are often operated by hand crank to adjust the height, which means no hydraulic system needing scheduled maintenance. It's important to remember that in spite of the "standalone" features of such a heavy-duty ramp, you should still attach the ramp to the trailer using safety chains to prevent mishaps.
