...Having pushed mine [tractor]
to its limits I know it will lift around 1500 lbs through its range, and
lift 2000lbs a few inches and stop.  This does not mean its inferior to
your home made stack up.  It means it has design limits.  Your stacked
up tool may be able to lift 4000lbs or even a lot more, but it might not
be practical for "knocking around" an 8500 lb container.  You bump an
8500 pound container with a 6000+lb tractor and the container is going
to move.  Bumping around is a legitimate way of moving things.  LOL.
-------------------------------------
I didn't mean to imply that my stuff was better, it's fine for the one task it was designed for and almost useless for others. I'd love to find a justifiably affordable tractor/loader/backhoe, even one too small to be commercially practical, since I can hoist a boulder or log beyond the capacity of any loader I could maneuver through my woods.
I didn't respond to the container post at first because I have no idea how to move that much weight without large trees for anchors, and you are much too far away to borrow my reject* pipe bollards for rollers. The neighbor's ~2000 Lb shed was near my lifting limit, with my equipment distributed among four corners. I picked it up high enough for him to back his heavy equipment trailer under it with his New Holland.
* They are 4" in diameter, which is 3-1/2" nominal pipe. The requirement is 4" pipe. They were the second free gift that didn't meet MA regulations, the first is a steel fire door with a window 10.0" x 10.1", the limit is 100 square inches. It's now between my garage and basement.
Here in NH I could legally own a muzzle-loading cannon that big if I had a place to fire it. We still have militias, and Redcoats to oppose them.
