proto type freezer/crate dolley

[The Cobbler]

Here is a few prototypes of what I would call freezer/ fridge.crate dolleys
we do a lot of work in lived in rental units. it's always a PITA to move fridges and freezers around.
I came up with this idea , essentially a 4 wheel dolley that we jack the item up with, then it has 4 swivel casters we can easily move where ever we want.
no more having to unload/load the fridges . it came in handle to move the TV too, . and a godsend for the freezer/.

nice work. It is very similar to a piano mover.

 

[The Cobbler]

yes, but with the jacks we have better control over raising & lowering

Those are available commercially and usually have a ratchet ******** each one to lock them to the freezer/safe/desk to help keep them coming loose. They retail for $500 or so but you have much cheaper/easier design. You could add a set of ratchet load straps that would help with using it.

 

[The Cobbler]

yes, sort of used the ideas from the commercially available ones and implimented my own design to them .the reason I have the strap under neath is so a fridge door can still be opened while on the dolly. it's actually very stable once it is ratcheted up tight . we fooled with several versions until I landed on this design.
once I paint it I also will line the plate with rubber
