Abstract

A toilet dolly for lifting a toilet from a floor includes a frame having a pair of spaced-apart members which are positionable on opposite sides of the toilet desired to be lifted from a floor, and a plurality of wheels enable the frame to be rolled into operative positional relationship with a toilet for purposes of lifting the toilet from the floor. A pair of spaced-apart linkage members are connected to the spaced-apart members for pivotal movement relative thereto, and the linkage members include bowl-lifting portions which are moved between lowered and raised conditions as the linkage members are pivotally moved relative to the frame structure. The lever assembly further includes a foot-engagable portion which enables a user to pivotally move the linkage members relative to the frame structure with his foot to thereby lift the toilet to an elevated condition above the floor.
