I\u2019ve been searching for articles particularly on one would pack their vehicle mine being a truck in the event I had to get out. I know pallets that are shipped have a specific order on what goes on first comes off last. I have to factor in weight especially and usually pack the bed with the heaviest items over the axle or forward. I would also be interested in how you would organize backpacks as weight is also a major factor. Many Thanks<\/em><\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Well, we\u2019re going to cover the vehicle loads in this article and follow up with one on backpacks and rucksacks in Part 2.\u00a0 So, let\u2019s jump into it!\u00a0 One of the things that you must find out first regarding your particular vehicle is its load capacity.\u00a0 How much weight can it hold?\u00a0 How much can the axles take?\u00a0 It is more than this, however: certain weight loads will shift with terrain and with the gradient driving upon.\u00a0 A steep incline that tilts the bed of that pickup too far will end up turning that pickup into a dump truck.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, you also need to assess what you\u2019re transporting to minimize danger.\u00a0 Ammo, flammable liquids, and so forth.\u00a0 An accident with a power line can introduce electricity into the equation and create a secondary explosion that ends up being worse than the accident.\u00a0 Let\u2019s go through some basics.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Strap down all your loads as best you can\u2026and make this mandatory with anything that is liquid\/fluids, such as water cans, fuel cans, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure all your flammable liquids are in sealed and sturdy containers that do not leak and can hold up to rough handling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the rest of the article&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>12 Tips to Pack Your Bug-Out Vehicle Like a Pro\u00a0 \u201cHi, really appreciate all the articles you and the others do on these websites!
