There are so many different ways, and situations, the bottom line is less handling, its still labor but anywhere you can eliminate a step, not work off the ground and or put a lot of strain or work on your back, makes it much easier more tolerable.
I'll bet its a wash, takes 2x the time to load that truck tightly packed and to unload, vs, small loads, multiple trips, which may burn a little more fuel.
Where I live, the main road, a state road, opens up to a 4 lane road, leading into the nearby city and interstate highway system. On the return trip home, where it changes back to 2 lanes, it backs up to a standstill with local and a lot of non local traffic heading into Vermont.
The section of road from the 2 lane where it changes to the bridge connected to the highway is loaded with traffic lights, and intersections and somewhere on this stretch, all the way up to the change to 2 lanes I can spot a tractor trailer, a truck or anything large enough to see again and remember by the name on it, or whatever it is. I will use an alternate route to go around, its longer, but I don't sit, and there have been many many times where I get to my lane, where I turn off the state road, and meet that vehicle I bookmarked in my head, exactly sometimes, so its a wash, I keep moving, but its longer distance, they keep moving slower, but shorter distance, funny how that works, it still seems faster with the longer router because you are not sitting.
