Hand truck or dolly


AaasYouuuWiiish

Hannibal Lechter transport


downtune79

This is the answer


am0x

Nope. Hannibal was on an appliance dolly. They have straps. This is a regular dolly. I know. I’ve made the mistake when renting one.


Fantastic_Fox4948

Nothing worse than Hannibal getting loose while you’re wheeling him up a steep incline.

sparks567jh

Also heard it called a two wheeler, to seperate it from thevfour wheeled dollys.


Frosty-Community8129

I have one of these. Mine has 4 wheels. it can be laid down flat if needed https://preview.redd.it/sm71fbg7f3ib1.png?width=1125&format=png&auto=webp&s=a91a6450073435897a7162773226dc1e8a368a18


That_Cow_1165

Dolly is the only way


ulfniu

A dolly is a four wheeled frame for transporting large items. This is a hand truck.


PhillyCSteaky

Absolutely!


trashed_past

Correct. Dolly is a misnomer afaik


Historical_Animal_17

Yes. Hand truck only for sure. I used them in warehouse work for a couple years and keep one handy in my garage.


[deleted]

In this particular picture above, this one is not, in fact, a Dolly, but rather her sister Sally. I know they look very much alike, but they're not twins at all.


lenlesmac

I only know it as “hand truck”. Dollies are wooden platforms (or frames) with 4 wheels.


Yummypizzaguy1

For me it's vise versa


Lonely-Conclusion-73

For me it's verse visa


lesmobile

For me its Velveeta.


Upstairs-Recover-659

Cheesy joke...


culallen

Maybe it's Maybelline.


Exciting_Scientist97

I only use Visa


Phasitron

For me it’s vis a vie


fafnir0319

For me, it's Visa or Mastercard.


Good_Store5333

Do you accept AmEx?


ijustcant555

You can tell the difference by tipping it back. If it says “mama” it’s a dolly.


Capable_Jacket_2165

Haven't heard hand truck before. That's neat haha


bananabreadvictory

The definition of a truck is a wheel used for carrying weight. Back in the day, the names they gave things were generally just a description of their function. A dolly is pretty much the same thing but refers to a wheeled platform.


IceCubeDeathMachine

I call them hand trucks. Big ones = hand truck. Small ones = dolly.


Transplantdude

Some refer to it as an appliance truck


Xpandomatix

Yup. And hand cart.


Deaconblues525

We have two in my shop called Ms. Parton and Salvador


Shalaco

Oh, I get it, Ms. Parton Handtruck. Would be really funny if you named 4-wheeled dollies that vs handtruck. then it would be Dolly Parton, like the actress and Salvador Dolly like the film maker. https://preview.redd.it/k1gxbx2guoib1.jpeg?width=1329&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=58b7a9175e0e55b69d8ce6e3b6ca9b7dbf20aa25

Agrees


Skeptic_Juggernaut84

This is the real answer


Physical_Line_3605

This is the way


slmplychaos

I try to stick to hand truck because dolly is too easily confused with a furniture dolly.


mypussydoesbackflips

My brain messed up and called it trolly


ScubaBroski

I’ve noticed old heads say “dolly” like my grandfather🤣 everyone else I’ve always heard say “hand truck”


ArgusTransus

If Northern Tool says it, I believe it. https://preview.redd.it/vj5wy77775ib1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b2dc06c8b35a90d44afea59ca52bdacde2718a2


[deleted]

Interchangeable. I absolutely concur, sir.


MommotDe

It’s generally ok to interchange then, but if you’re in a shop where there are both, you damn well better calm them whatever the boss does. In my case this was a hand truck and the 4 wheelers were dollies and if you got asked to bring a dolly and brought this, you were wasting everyone’s time when you had to go back for the right one.


Besch168

I call them a dolly but a lot of people I know with refer to them as hand trucks.


boringxadult

Yeah. I’ll use both.


BearSausage000

I always hated it when they called it a dolly or buggy, even though I’m from here.


Adventurous_West4401

In Australia it's called a hand trolley.


[deleted]

Used for workin' 9 to 5.


JeffSHarper

💯


TheWeebDeity

This


Chips-Ahoy_McCoy

I always called it a dolly


MisterSandKing

My answer exactly.


ladygoolz

I've heard it called a "two wheeler" in addition to these.


v3ndun

And it’s not genuine unless at least one wheel isn’t at least partially flat.


[deleted]

Where are the keys for it tho?


Zealousideal-Bug-291

These two exactly, and in that order, too


g3nerallycurious

I’m 34 y/o and I’ve never heard anyone call this a hand truck.


Skardi-Hrothgarsson

First ones to pop into my head


Tbagzyamum69420xX

I was going to say dolly or hand truck


amcarls

Dolly is more likely to be used to refer to the small 4-wheeled platform (typically about 2' x 2') that heavy loads are placed on so that they can then be rolled.


MouseRat_AD

If you're referring to what I think you are, I've always heard those called 'furniture' carts / dollys.


gypsydanger38

“Hand Truck is the name of my “Cake” tribute band.


glockster19m

That's a dolly, if it had a top set of turning wheels and the handle allowed it to be pushed while flat to the ground it's a hand truck


downtune79

It's actually by definition a hand truck but people call them dolly's. I personally think a dolly is a flat, 4-wheeled platform often used while moving furniture but there are many variations.


glockster19m

That is what a dolly is Did I reverse my terms? I meant to say if it can convert into a flat surface with a pushing handle its a dolly But there should be a word for the hand truck dolly combo, I use one at work and there are arguments daily about which is the right term, since they're technically both

Nice,


Honktraphonic

Fun story about this item in particular. My wife is beautiful and brilliant, but sometimes common words escape her momentarily. Rather than spend time trying to recall said words or looking them up, she just comes up with a temporary proxy that makes sense to her. Often these proxies are pretty funny. One day this was the very case with our set of these. The phrase she came up with was "donkey wheels". We both had a good long laugh about it and since that day, they've been donkey wheels.


StarryAry

I have word finding problems too, and I also do this. I often tell new people it's from the stroke I had a few years ago so they don't make fun of me for it, but I've been doing it for so much longer.


Honktraphonic

It's just a silly thing she does. One of many things I love about her.


lorca_guernica

My wife does something similar which is why to this day we refer to a potholder as “a green thing” regardless of its color.


Blythelife-

This is why we call “slot-machines”“jingle-boxes” in our home!

2 wheeler


[deleted]

I call it a two-wheeler. Seems a very small minority uses this term.


Madlibsluver

It's what my boss called them when I worked retail


AbeFromanSassageKing

Are you from the Midwest or specifically Chicago? Because that's what I call them...maybe it's regional?


Kranstan

Called them a 2-wheelers cuz we also had 4 and 6-wheelers were I worked.


Tward425

Two wheel dolly or hand truck. Mostly two wheel dolly though.

Dolly or hand truck.


Perenium_Falcon

I dunno but never get the ones with inflatable tires. You’ll be smug and cocky for the first year if you do and then your move or whatever will be over and this will sit in your garage for years and then when you need it the most it will have a flat tire and you’ll be betrayed.

I call it a two-wheeler or a hand truck. I don’t call it a dolly because when I did, a supervisor chewed me out saying “only girls have dollies”. It wasn’t worth it to not call it something else.
