I *have* a trailer, and have had it for many years, however it was after I asked the question - back in 2004!

I have one 3 foot by 2 foot by 2 inch thick slab that the neighbour didn't want. I can barely lift it, I can only move it by 'walking' it from corner to corner if I have to move it (propped up against a wall). That size is bloody heavy. Forget carrying them in a domestic car.

I had to remove about a half-a dozen paving slabs of that size prior to a new patio being laid. As you note, they had to be "walked" to move them. I found the main problem was once they started to moved it was almost impossible to stop them! In the end, as I didn't want them, after moving the first couple I just broke them up into easily transportable bits to take them to the tip.
A rough calculation shows each slab weighs about 65 kg.
