I was not quite sure where to post this but where can i get a light weight ramp that is solid and is collapsible for wheeling my drum hardware case from the ground up into the back of my truck? (i have a blazer) I need to get ahold of one of these quick because im about to start rehearsing with a band and my hardware case weighs a ton.

Please offer any help.
 
Can't you just get your bandmates to help lift it? It'll be a hassle setting up the ramp/taking it down and putting it away.
 
I will be lifting it on my own at my house.

My truck is not big enough to fit 2 cases plus my drums and everything else.
 
I would seriously reconsider my hardware setup if I had this problem. There is no way I would want to move anything that heavy on a regular basis. What happens if you gig at a venue with 3 flights of stairs?

What kind of truck?? I have a pickup and I can fit my stuff AND have room left over for other gear should I need it. It's got a lid, so I don't even have benefit of HEIGHT and there's plenty of room.

2 small cases shouldn't take up more room than one BIG one, if you plan it correctly. I knew a female drummer that did it. She was a small girl, so it was beneficial so split the weight into two cases. If you plan, you can do it.

Of course. if you give up without trying, you'll never solve the problem.
 
Go to your local lawn mower shop.
They sell ramps for loading riding lawn mowers into trucks. They have collapsible ones and kits for making your own out of wood too...
