That's determined by the coefficient of friction between the load and the surface. A coefficient of 1 means the force to drag is equal to the normal force (ie, the dead lift). Most things (including moose fur on soil) have a coefficient < 1, but it's not hard to engineer combinations > 1, such as race tires on asphalt.
