I use a 500# hydraulic table from Harbor Freight ($136) which happens to fit the hitch perfectly. I jack the table until the entire weight is off the kingpin then unhook the hitch. Lower the table to ankle height and roll into the garage. No lifting, no climbing.
Those tables are awesome. I bought one from Harbor Freight, used it to install my 300 lb Onan generator, then sold it for almost the same price on Ebay.
PS - nice looking garage by the way.
