Abstract
A multi-diameter container dolly includes an outer ring and a pair of support members, substantially perpendicular to each other that diametrically span the outer ring. The support members are configured to provide a series of nested support surfaces for containers of varying diameters. Each support member has a series of steps yielding support surfaces of progressively smaller diameters relative to the center of the outer ring. Casters are provided at the end of each support member for ease in maneuvering the dolly. A tow strap is also provided for moving the dolly.
