Heavier loads are loaded first in a truck. Why?
For a stable equilibrium of a body, its center  of gravity should lie as low as possible.  Loading heavy loads first in a truck and loading  light loads on the heavy ones can lower the  center of gravity of the truck and load system. This ensures the stability of the system and the  loads can be transported safely. Therefore the  heavier loads must be loaded first in any  transporting vehicles. For the same reason, the  passengers are not allowed to stand in a boat  and the bottom of a ship is made heavy.
