It depends on the size of the lorry
Lorries can weigh any amount from 2 to 100 or so tons.
A weighing bridge is usually a large, flat, rectangular metal plate, set at road level, on which a lorry can be parked to get the lorry's weight. An empty lorry may be weighed on entering a business premises (tare weight) and then weighed when loaded before leaving to give the gross weight. The difference between the gross and the tare will give the net weight of the load put on the lorry. It will also ensure that the lorry is not overloaded, which is a road-traffic offence.
maximum gross weight for a lorry in the uk is 44 tonnes (44 000 kg)
The Horse Lorry usually carries Horses. The largest Horse Lorry there is in the World can carry ten horses at one time. Now that is a big horse load.

5 tons
what kind of lorry? a 7.5 tonner will weigh around 4-5 tons empty, a four wheel rigid 18 tonner will weigh around 8-9 tons empty. add an extra ton for each additional axle. a solo tractor unit will be around 7-8 tons, coupled to a tri-axle curtainsider the weight empty will be around 15 tons, coupled to a fridge trailer closer to 18 tons empty. subject to design weights/taxation class, a 4 wheel tractor coupled to a tandem trailer can be loaded up to 33 tons, a triaxle trailer up to 40 tons, a six wheel unit coupled to a triaxle trailer can go up to 44 tons
A stone is equal to about 14 pounds. 14 x 80 = 1120 lbs. A ton is equal to 2000 lbs. So a half ton lorry would probably work as it would only be slightly overweight. But a 3/4 ton lorry would be better, as it would provide a little extra margin of safety.
