that will work, 13 is kind of a stretch since the wheelbarrows won't be filled to the brim lol
make sure you rinse the wheelbarrows out good first and they're damp when you start
take your time and don't dump any

its only 2 yards. only goin 4" thick not like ill be driving on it. this shed is just for storage of yard tools and misc crap. Might want to check your math on 2 yd., concrete covers approx. 81 sq. ft. @ 4" thick. With the 10 x 16 and 2 - 3 x 9 aprons you mentioned I calculate closer to 2 3/4 yds. I believe the local companies have a 3 yr. delivery minimum, so you will be paying for 3 anyway. Concrete varies in weight but I would guesstimate a reasonable weight you are going to be moving is around 8000 lbs.

But don't you mean it would take 1 yd to cover 81sq ft@4" thick?

Well I called hatzers where I will be ordering the concrete from And they dont have a tow behind pump. They suggested a georgia buggy and suggested rental pros called them and they dont have one. I guess its a wheel barrow with a motor on it and can haul about a yard. Anyone know where I can rent one?

A Motorized wheel barrel can haul 1/3 of a yard but no one in this area has one. I used a contractor from the Urbana area. It was pretty slick. This contractor used Hatzer for the concrete. He was licensed and I had a permit from the city.
