Quick summary
Lifting Heavy Things (FS19) is a free Farming Simulator 19 add-on that lets players physically pick up and move bulky items — giving you a more hands-on way to manage your farm. It’s designed to add convenience and creative freedom, letting you rearrange loads and set up the yard without always relying on tractors and forklifts.
What you can pick up
- Round bales and other large roll-style hay
- Fertilizer sacks and similar supply containers
- Square bales and palletized loads
Practical benefits
- Speeds up daily chores so you spend less time shuffling equipment
- Makes experimenting with unusual layouts and setups easy
- Helps keep tight areas organized without needing extra machinery
- Lowers dependence on heavy equipment for simple repositioning tasks
Setup and compatibility
Installation is simple and it works well alongside most other mods. Casual players will find it straightforward to add to their mod folder, and experienced modders report it integrates smoothly into multi-mod setups.
Things to keep in mind
The mod trades some realism for convenience: it allows players to move items with near-superhuman ease. If you’re chasing a highly realistic simulation experience, this can feel immersion-breaking. For sandbox play or casual sessions, many players consider that trade-off acceptable.
Who will enjoy this most
If you prefer open-ended play, like experimenting, or want to simplify logistics on a busy map, this mod is a strong fit. Simulation purists who prefer strict realism may want to avoid it, but most players who value flexibility and quicker workflows will appreciate the added control.
