This is how I use to break down plywood. I made miles of cabinets out of my father's garage with only a contractor's table saw (grizzly), drill press and a couple of router tables and portable power tools.
I never have to pick up the whole sheet of plywood or Melamine by my self, always only half. I use a 1x materials on edge made into a grid couple inches lower the the tail gate of my pick up truck sitting on saw horses. Once the plywood is slid onto the cutting grid/ table from the bed of pickup, the T square saw guide goes onto the marking and the piece gets rough cross cut to 1/4" over (you bet your behind its perfectly sq). Set that piece aside and next one get cut. Set up table saw and trim all to size. By now, the pieces are easy to manage. All table saw cuts are done inside two car garage. I rigged my saw with a 52" fence due to lack of room and on HTC mobile base. I can cut a typical kitchen by myself in one to two days and finish assembly in about a week.
