I can carry about 3 boxes of halves which equals about 75 lbs. typically 2 in a backpack and one on my shoulder.I do start to feel it in my back after awhile. One time I carried 4.5 boxes and that almost killed me, i still have night terrors thinking about that day.

I carry in 2 stout hand totes 3 boxes each when pick up my 6 per week at my regular Bank, at another bank where we used to order 20 and pick up 16 or 18 according to FRN's avail the Banker uses a Dolly and wheels it out to our Ford Ranger pickup, now they only will allow us to do 10 at a time, which will be on dolly. (We gots 18 boxes coming 2sday, 8 here in Tn and 10 more from an Ark Bank.)

Used to do alot of heavy work in Timber industry sawing logs & stuff, 6 Boxes are heavy but not too heavy for my 120 or so foot walk to my ride, though my teller has hard time putting 1 Box at a time on counter. ;D
 
I never carry more than four of the flat boxes. If you carry more the weightwil cause the end flaps of the bottom box to burst. I had it happen to me.

My Boxes aren't flat but cubed like a Brick, the Rolls are stacked in layers of 3 and 3 rows at right angle to the other three, (when open my Box(s) none of the ends of Rolls are visible only the sides of the rolls). This is what mine looks like;

Obe,
Never saw boxes like that or wrappers that color. Probably why I have not seen as much silver as you :icon_scratch:

Did you notice writing on inside of my Box says Quarters are in it? Strange they'd not put them in Boxes made for Halves. oh dont forget I've plenty of Skunks with these too, 12 in a row once
 
4 boxes, or 2 1k bags. I would try 5 boxes if I could order that many at a time.
 
I picked up a small folding dolley that can handle 150 lbs..... Works like a charm for 6 box max haul. ..folds up and fits in my trunk, with the halves...COSTS $22 @ Big Lots HH Gayle
