I made up a dolly/trolley from a piece of blockboard and 2 wheeled
sledge things that go permanently under a cooker/fridge etc to move
for cleaning. So very low centre of gravity.


Get ahold of a real hand truck (dunno what they're called in the
UK--anyone know?)--a good sturdy one. You'll be pleasantly surprised how
easy it is to move things. You'll feel like Archimedes himself.


Screwfix do some very nice dollies.


So you call them "dollies"? Over here that's a misnomer; a dolly is what
N_Cook called a "trolley", a platform with wheels. (I.e., what piano
movers use.)
