[Tucker1]

I've been trying to find a piece of equipment to help me move my hives singlehandedly. Every once in a while, I'll see a picture of a odd looking dolly/hand truck, that can be used to move hives with only one person. (I'm a one man band.) It seems to have an extra arm that clamps on the hive to hold it in place and keeps it parallel to ground.

Does anyone know where I could buy one?

Regards,
Tucker1

Hey Tucker -- i took an air filled tire hand cart and welded forks on it that are 17 inches long - to slide under the hives - works great -

i also have the 2 hand hive lifters that work great with 2 people - but if im by myself i just use the cart

check out yard sales this year for a cheap hand cart to modify - they are costy to buy new

You may be talking about this. It's a hive mover from Mann Lake. Works great and really saves your back.
