If you don`t , you know what might happen.......
Id also checkout the video of the crew trying to load a CH-53 onto a ferry...or not to....especially if it`s got a ramp.....check it`s still got the wheels on after loading as well........

Seriously, you might want to arrange it to be loaded with the ramp level/depends on tide,or up the ramp then raise the ramp ,level,roll off ramp;same for offload....Geometry of nose/aft wheels going up/over/down a ramp...aerials under fuselage,etc....good brake pressure and chocks essential.....
