We need something to help move heavier furniture around while preparing to paint.
Things like a china cabinet, heavy bookshelves, etc. that don't come apart or have wheels.
We're looking at hand trucks online, but it's hard to tell what to buy. The prices and features vary quite a bit.
Also, how do you keep the item from falling off? Even the trucks rated at 800 lbs (more than anything weighs that we own) only have a teeny shelf at the bottom to slide under the furniture.
So here are the ones we're looking at:

This one's convertible to a 4-wheel dolly, although we don't really need that capability right now. But who knows what we'll need in future?
[ url=https://www.walmart.com/ip/Milwaukee-37109-Flow-Back-Hand-Truck-600-Lb-Capacity-Red/127014690/] Milwaukee 37109[/ url] This one is much less expensive, but doesn't convert to a horizontal dolly.
Thoughts and advice are welcome.
