1. For someone on a tight budget who needs to move a mix of boxes and one large appliance, would it be more cost-effective to rent both a utility dolly and an appliance dolly, or is there a versatile option that handles both tasks?

   1. If you’re working with a limited budget, consider renting just an appliance dolly. Appliance dollies are designed to handle heavy, bulky items like large appliances, but they can also be used for moving boxes. This way, you avoid renting two separate dollies and still get the support you need for both types of loads.

2. For a first-time mover handling both boxes and a heavy refrigerator, is it better to rent both a utility dolly and an appliance dolly, or can one type safely handle everything if I’m careful?

   1. For your situation, it’s best to use an appliance dolly for the refrigerator, as it has straps and a design specifically for heavy, bulky appliances. For boxes and lighter items, a utility dolly is much more convenient and easier to maneuver. Renting both will make your move much safer and more efficient, especially if you want to avoid damage or injury.

3. How do I know when I actually need to invest in a specialty dolly rather than just using a basic hand truck? I usually only move boxes and small pieces of furniture, but sometimes my moves end up taking forever.

   1. If you mostly move boxes and small furniture, a basic hand truck generally works well. However, if you often deal with items that are bulky, heavy, or awkwardly shaped—like appliances or large pieces of furniture—a specialty dolly can save you time and effort. If your moves are taking a long time due to difficulty handling certain items, it might be worth investing in a dolly designed for those specific loads.

4. You mentioned that appliance dollies have stair-climbing wheels and built-in straps. Do these work on tight or spiral staircases, or would a different moving method be safer for large appliances in those situations?

   1. Appliance dollies with stair-climbing wheels can handle standard stairs, but tight or spiral staircases are challenging due to limited space and turns. In those situations, it’s often safer to use extra helpers to carefully guide and lift the appliance, or consider professional movers with specialized equipment. Always remove obstacles and plan your route beforehand to minimize risks.

5. I saw you mentioned furniture dollies have carpeted or rubberized surfaces—are there certain types of furniture or flooring where one material is better than the other, especially if you’re worried about scratches?

   1. Carpeted surfaces on furniture dollies are usually best for delicate wood furniture or items with finished surfaces, as the carpet helps prevent scratches. Rubberized surfaces work well on heavier or more rugged furniture and give extra grip, but rubber can sometimes leave marks on light-colored flooring. For hardwood or tile floors, carpeted dollies are often preferred to avoid scuffing, while on concrete or unfinished floors, either material works fine.

6. I noticed you mention the appliance dolly has stair-climbing capabilities. If I’m moving a heavy washing machine up a narrow flight of stairs by myself, how safe is it really, and are there special techniques to avoid damaging the stairs or the appliance?

   1. An appliance dolly does help with moving heavy items like washing machines up stairs, especially with built-in stair-climbing wheels or tracks. However, moving such heavy appliances alone can be risky. To minimize damage and stay safe, secure the washing machine tightly to the dolly, use moving blankets to protect both the machine and the stairs, and always tilt and move slowly. If possible, have a second person assist to keep the load steady and balanced.

7. I noticed furniture dollies typically have a flat platform with casters. Are there any tips for maneuvering these through narrow hallways or doorways without damaging the furniture or walls?

   1. To safely move furniture dollies through tight spaces, make sure the furniture is centered and securely positioned on the dolly. Go slowly, use gentle turns, and have someone guide you if possible. Placing moving blankets or padding on the furniture and along wall edges can help prevent scratches or dents. If a doorway is very narrow, measure first to ensure the dolly and item will fit before proceeding.

8. You mention that utility dollies are great for boxes and compact furniture. If I’m tackling a move by myself, how can I tell if a utility dolly is sufficient for a heavy armchair, or should I invest in a furniture dolly instead?

   1. For a heavy armchair, check the weight capacity of your utility dolly—most can handle smaller items and boxes, but larger or bulky furniture can be tricky, especially if you’re moving alone. If the armchair is wide, heavy, or awkward to balance upright, a furniture dolly is safer and easier since it offers a flat, stable base to slide and move oversized pieces. Consider the item’s size, your strength, and maneuvering space before deciding.

9. The article mentions furniture dollies have carpeted or rubberized surfaces—are there situations where one is preferable over the other? I’ve moved stuff with both but never really knew if I was picking the best option for my hardwood floors.

   1. Yes, there are situations where one surface is better than the other. Carpeted dollies are generally gentler and help prevent scratches on delicate furniture or finished wood surfaces. Rubberized dollies provide more grip, which is great for keeping heavier items from shifting. For hardwood floors, both types can work, but make sure the wheels are clean and free of debris to avoid scratching. If you’re especially concerned about your floors, carpeted dollies are a safe choice.

10. If I need to move both boxes and a big refrigerator in one day, is it better to rent just an appliance dolly and use it for everything, or should I rent both a utility dolly and an appliance dolly to match the tasks more closely?

    1. If you have both boxes and a big refrigerator to move, renting both a utility dolly and an appliance dolly is the safer and more efficient choice. The appliance dolly is designed for heavy, bulky items like refrigerators, offering better stability and straps. The utility dolly is lighter and easier to maneuver for moving multiple boxes quickly. Using each dolly for its intended purpose can help prevent damage and make the moving process smoother.

11. I noticed you listed typical weight capacities for each dolly type. Are those maximum weights or recommended safe limits? If I have a heavy piece of furniture that’s close to the top end, should I go up a size for extra safety?

    1. The weight capacities listed in the article refer to the recommended safe limits, not the absolute maximums. If your furniture is close to the upper limit of a dolly’s capacity, it’s a good idea to choose a larger or stronger dolly for extra safety and stability. This helps prevent equipment strain and makes moving heavy items safer for you and your helpers.

12. If I only have to move a couple of heavy boxes and one small refrigerator, would it make sense to rent just a utility dolly, or should I consider an appliance dolly even though it’s mostly boxes? Not sure if it’s overkill or safer.

    1. For mostly heavy boxes, a utility dolly should do the job and is easier to handle. However, if your small refrigerator is heavy or awkward to maneuver, an appliance dolly offers extra stability and straps for safety. If the fridge is light and you can move it securely with a utility dolly, you can skip the appliance dolly. Prioritize safety—if in doubt, go with the appliance dolly.

13. When it comes to maneuvering large appliances up or down stairs, how effective are the stair-climbing wheels and support straps on appliance dollies compared to doing it with a regular hand truck? Are there any tips for using those features safely if you’re moving solo?

    1. Stair-climbing wheels and support straps on appliance dollies make moving large appliances up or down stairs much safer and easier compared to regular hand trucks, which can be awkward and unstable. For solo movers, always secure the appliance tightly with the straps, keep your grip firm, and take one step at a time. Make sure the stair-climbing wheels are aligned with the steps, and pause if you feel off-balance. Never rush, and if the item feels too heavy, consider getting help for safety.

14. If you’re on a tight budget and only planning a one-time move, is it smarter to rent a dolly or buy a basic hand truck? Are there quality differences between rental equipment and what you might find at a big box store?

    1. If you’re only moving once and want to save money, renting a dolly is usually more cost-effective than buying a new hand truck. Rental dollies are often sturdy and well-maintained since they’re designed for repeated use. In contrast, basic hand trucks sold at big box stores can be less durable, especially the cheapest models. For a single move, renting typically gives you better quality at a lower overall cost.

15. How do you usually decide between renting a basic utility dolly versus a specialty furniture dolly if you are moving on a budget? Are there situations where one is truly necessary, or can you get by with a utility dolly for most household moves?

    1. When moving on a budget, a basic utility dolly is often sufficient for most household moves, especially for boxes and smaller furniture. However, specialty furniture dollies are better for very heavy, bulky, or delicate items like large dressers or pianos, as they offer more stability and protection. If your move mainly involves standard boxes and not oversized furniture, you can usually get by with just a utility dolly.

16. I’ve never used an appliance dolly before. Can you explain how the built-in straps work to secure a refrigerator, and whether there are any tips to make it safer when going down stairs? I’m a bit nervous about managing that part.

    1. The built-in straps on an appliance dolly loop around the refrigerator and buckle tightly to hold it in place, preventing shifting during the move. Make sure the straps are centered and snug, but not so tight that they damage the appliance. When going down stairs, keep the dolly tilted back and move slowly, one step at a time. Have someone help guide and support from below if possible, and always keep the weight balanced to stay in control.

17. Do you have any tips for selecting a moving dolly to fit within a tight budget? For example, are there certain types that are generally less expensive to rent or buy but still suitable for moving heavier items like furniture?

    1. If you’re on a tight budget, consider platform dollies or basic utility dollies, as these are usually less expensive than appliance or specialty dollies. Platform dollies can still handle heavy furniture and are often available for rent at local hardware stores. Look for models with sturdy frames and durable wheels, even if they’re basic. Renting can also be more cost-effective than buying if you only need it for a short time.

18. I noticed you described both utility dollies and furniture dollies for different uses. If I only want to invest in one dolly for occasional moves, is there a type that’s versatile enough to handle both boxes and some larger furniture, or should I always plan to rent multiple types?

    1. If you want just one dolly for occasional use, a sturdy utility dolly (upright hand truck) is generally the most versatile choice. It can handle stacked boxes and, with careful positioning, many pieces of furniture like dressers or small couches. For very large or bulky furniture, a furniture dolly is better, but for most moves, a utility dolly should be sufficient and convenient to own.

19. Can you explain how to safely use an appliance dolly when going up or down stairs, especially with really heavy items like refrigerators? The article mentions built-in straps and stair-climbing wheels, but I’m still nervous about managing the weight on steps.

    1. When moving heavy items like refrigerators up or down stairs with an appliance dolly, always secure the item firmly using the built-in straps. Make sure the dolly is positioned under the center of the load. With two people, one should pull from above while the other guides from below, keeping the dolly tilted slightly back. Use the stair-climbing wheels to ease each step, and move slowly, one step at a time. Never rush or try to handle heavy appliances alone.

20. For someone on a limited budget, is it better to invest in a furniture dolly or a standard utility dolly if I mostly move boxes and the occasional small dresser? I’m not sure which one would be more versatile for a small business.

    1. If you mostly move boxes and only occasionally a small dresser, a standard utility dolly (upright, with wheels and a handle) is more versatile for your needs. It handles stacked boxes easily and can manage small furniture as long as the items aren’t too bulky. Furniture dollies are better for large, heavy furniture but are less helpful with boxes. A utility dolly should give you the most flexibility for a small business on a budget.

21. You list typical weight capacities for each dolly type, but how strict are those limits? If I have something that’s just a little over the recommended weight, is it a hard no, or is there some wiggle room?

    1. It’s always best to stick to the manufacturer’s recommended weight limits for each dolly type. Exceeding these limits, even by a small amount, can increase the risk of damage to the dolly or injury to the user. Manufacturers set these limits with a safety margin, but relying on that isn’t advisable. If your load is just over the limit, consider using a dolly rated for a higher weight to stay safe.

22. How do I figure out the right weight capacity when choosing a dolly? For example, if my heaviest item is around 600 lbs, should I choose a dolly with a much higher capacity just to be safe, or does that make maneuvering it harder?

    1. When selecting a dolly, it’s wise to choose one with a weight capacity slightly higher than your heaviest item, so for a 600 lb item, a dolly rated for 700–800 lbs is a safe bet. Overestimating too much can make the dolly bulkier and trickier to handle, so aim for a balance—enough capacity for safety without adding unnecessary size or weight.

23. I noticed you mentioned that utility dollies and furniture dollies have different weight capacities. If I have to move both boxes and some heavier furniture, is it better to rent both types, or can one handle both jobs safely?

    1. If you need to move both boxes and heavier furniture, it’s safest to use both types of dollies. Utility dollies are great for stacked boxes and lighter loads, while furniture dollies are specifically built for heavier, bulkier items like couches or dressers. Using both ensures you avoid overloading a single dolly and makes moving easier and safer.

24. For someone on a tight budget, is it better to buy a basic utility dolly and try to adapt it for multiple uses, or is it worth renting specialty dollies for specific items like appliances or large furniture? I’m trying to avoid unnecessary expenses during my move.

    1. If you’re watching your budget, buying a basic utility dolly is usually the most cost-effective choice, especially if you have several items to move. Utility dollies are versatile and can handle boxes and smaller furniture. For very heavy or awkward items like appliances, you might consider renting a specialty dolly just for those items, which saves you from buying equipment you’ll rarely use. This way, you balance flexibility and minimize expenses.

25. Could you clarify if there are certain types of surfaces or flooring where a furniture dolly with rubberized wheels is recommended over one with regular casters? I want to avoid damaging hardwood floors while moving heavy items.

    1. Rubberized wheels are definitely recommended for hardwood floors, as they provide better grip and are less likely to scratch or dent the surface compared to regular hard casters. They also help prevent marks and make movement smoother across delicate flooring like tile or laminate. Reserve regular casters for concrete, carpet, or other tougher surfaces where potential floor damage isn’t a concern.

26. I’ve never used any type of moving dolly before, so I was wondering if you have any tips for actually lifting heavy items onto the dolly without hurting yourself. Are there methods or accessories that make this step easier for beginners?

    1. When lifting heavy items onto a dolly, use your legs rather than your back to lift—bend your knees, keep your back straight, and hold the item close to your body. If possible, get someone to help so you can lift together. You might also find lifting straps or forearm forklifts useful, as they help distribute weight more evenly and reduce strain. Slide items onto the dolly when you can, instead of lifting them fully. Always check the weight and stability before moving.

27. I see you mentioned appliance dollies have special straps and stair-climbing wheels for bigger items. Do you have any tips on safely maneuvering them up and down stairs, especially if I’m handling a heavy washer by myself or with just one helper?

    1. When moving a heavy washer with an appliance dolly, always use the straps to secure the load tightly. Tilt the dolly back so the weight rests on the wheels, and work with a helper if possible. One person should steady the washer from above while the other guides from below, taking one stair at a time. Move slowly, communicate clearly, and never rush. If you feel unsure or the washer seems too heavy, consider hiring professional movers to stay safe.

28. I’m trying to decide between a utility dolly and an appliance dolly for my small business when moving new inventory around the store. How do I know which one is safer for heavier items that need to be taken up a few steps?

    1. For heavier items that need to be moved up steps, an appliance dolly is generally the safer choice. Appliance dollies are designed with straps to secure the load and often have stair-climbing wheels, making it easier and safer to maneuver bulky or heavy inventory up or down stairs. Utility dollies are best for smaller, lighter items and flat surfaces.

29. In situations where I need to move both several heavy boxes and a large appliance in one day, is it better to invest in both a utility dolly and an appliance dolly, or is there a versatile option that covers both tasks efficiently?

    1. If you often need to move both heavy boxes and large appliances, some convertible dollies can switch between a two-wheel utility dolly and a four-wheel platform cart. These offer good versatility for both tasks. However, for very heavy or bulky appliances, an appliance dolly with straps and extra support is safest. If it’s a one-time move, renting both types might be more cost-effective than buying.

30. When it comes to weight capacity, how do I know if I’m overloading a hand truck or furniture dolly? Are there warning signs while you’re using it, or should I weigh everything in advance to stay safe?

    1. It’s important to check the manufacturer’s weight capacity for your hand truck or furniture dolly before loading. Weighing items in advance is safest, especially if you’re moving heavy objects. Warning signs of overloading include difficulty moving the dolly, wheels bending or straining, wobbling, or odd noises. If you notice any of these signs, stop and reduce the load immediately to prevent damage or accidents.

31. Do you have any advice on choosing between renting or buying a dolly if I only plan on moving a small apartment once? I’m trying to decide what makes sense budget-wise based on the dolly types listed here.

    1. If you only need a dolly for a one-time move, renting is usually the most budget-friendly choice. It saves you the cost and hassle of storage afterward. For moving a small apartment, a basic two-wheel hand truck or a small platform dolly will do the trick and both are widely available for rent at moving or hardware stores. Renting lets you pick the exact type you need for just the day or weekend you’ll use it.

32. You mention that some dollies come with carpeted or rubberized surfaces. Do these surfaces help protect wooden furniture from scratches, or should I take extra steps to wrap my furniture before placing it on a furniture dolly?

    1. Carpeted or rubberized surfaces on dollies do help reduce the risk of scratches to wooden furniture, offering a layer of protection. However, for valuable or delicate pieces, it’s wise to take extra precautions. Wrapping your furniture with blankets or padding before placing it on the dolly adds another layer of protection against bumps and scuffs during the move.

33. For someone on a tight budget, is it worth investing in specialty dollies like appliance or furniture dollies, or can most moving needs be met with a standard hand truck? I have a few bulky items but mainly boxes and smaller furniture.

    1. For most moves involving mostly boxes and smaller furniture, a standard hand truck should cover your needs quite well. If you only have a few bulky items and don’t move often, renting a specialty dolly for just those pieces might be more cost-effective than buying one. Only invest in appliance or furniture dollies if you expect to handle very heavy, awkward items regularly.

34. If I just need to move a few heavy boxes and a small couch into a storage unit, is it worth renting both a hand truck and a furniture dolly, or can I get by with only one type to keep costs down?

    1. For your situation, a furniture dolly should be enough. It will let you move both the heavy boxes and the small couch by simply stacking the boxes and placing the couch on top. Just be sure everything is balanced and secure during the move. Renting only one dolly will help you save money and still get the job done.

35. If I only need to move medium-sized boxes and occasionally a small fridge, would a utility dolly be sufficient, or is it worth investing in an appliance dolly for the extra features and capacity mentioned in the guide?

    1. For moving medium-sized boxes, a utility dolly should work well. If you only move a small fridge occasionally, you can still use a utility dolly, but you’ll need to make sure you secure the fridge carefully and have someone to help steady it. An appliance dolly offers added stability and straps for heavy or awkward items like fridges, so consider it if you expect to move appliances more often or want extra peace of mind.

36. For someone moving heavy appliances up a narrow staircase, is there a specific feature or brand of appliance dolly you recommend, or are they all pretty similar as long as they’ve got straps and stair-climbing wheels like you mention?

    1. For heavy appliances on a narrow staircase, look for an appliance dolly with stair-climbing wheels and sturdy ratchet straps for extra security. Some brands offer models with extra protective padding and a wider handle grip for better control in tight spaces. While most reputable brands provide similar features, investing in a dolly with a solid reputation for durability and customer support can make the process safer and easier.

37. I’m moving some heavy appliances up a few steps into my garage, and I noticed you mention appliance dollies with stair-climbing wheels. How hard are these to use on your own, and do most rental places carry the ones with straps and pads?

    1. Appliance dollies with stair-climbing wheels are designed to make moving heavy appliances up steps much easier, but they still require some strength and caution when used solo. The stair-climbing feature helps a lot, but going slowly and keeping the load balanced is important. Most rental places do carry appliance dollies with straps and sometimes pads, but it’s best to call ahead to confirm they have the specific model you want.

38. If you’re moving by yourself, is there a particular type of dolly you’d recommend for handling both stacked moving boxes and some bulkier furniture? I can’t buy multiple kinds, so I’m hoping to pick the most versatile option within a tight budget.

    1. A convertible or combination dolly would be your best bet in this situation. These dollies can switch between an upright hand truck position for stacked boxes and a flat platform cart for bulkier furniture. They’re designed to be versatile and can usually handle most household moving tasks on a budget, making them ideal for solo movers who want one tool for different types of items.

39. Do you have any recommendations for people on a budget who might only want to rent one type of dolly for their whole move? Is there a certain type that works well enough for both boxes and some furniture if you’re limited on options?

    1. If you’re looking to rent just one dolly for your move, a standard utility dolly (also called a hand truck) is a versatile choice. It’s sturdy enough for boxes and can help with lighter pieces of furniture like small dressers or chairs. For heavy or bulky furniture, you might need to recruit an extra set of hands, but a utility dolly should handle most basic moving needs on a budget.

40. If I’m only moving boxes and small furniture between my apartment and a storage unit, is it worth renting more than one type of dolly, or can a utility dolly handle both jobs efficiently and safely?

    1. A utility dolly should work well for moving boxes and small furniture. It is designed to handle stacked boxes and can help you move compact furniture safely. Unless you have bulky or oddly shaped pieces, you likely won’t need to rent a second dolly type. Just be sure to secure your items with straps, and avoid overloading the dolly to stay safe.

41. You mention that furniture dollies have carpeted or rubberized surfaces. Can these surfaces cause any issues with certain flooring types, or should I be worried about scratching hardwood floors?

    1. Carpeted or rubberized surfaces on furniture dollies are generally designed to protect both your furniture and your floors. However, small particles like grit can get trapped under the wheels or the dolly’s edges, which might cause scratches, especially on hardwood. It’s a good idea to check the dolly for debris before use and consider placing felt pads or a protective sheet on delicate flooring as an extra precaution.

42. For someone only moving lightweight furniture and boxes into a storage unit, would a furniture dolly be overkill, or is it worth the extra investment compared to just using a hand truck?

    1. If your items are mostly lightweight furniture and boxes, a hand truck should be more than enough. Hand trucks are easy to maneuver, especially in tight spaces like storage units, and they’re great for stacking boxes. A furniture dolly is helpful for bulky or heavy pieces, but for lighter moves, it’s probably more than you need and not worth the extra investment.

43. Could you explain a bit more about using appliance dollies on stairs? Are the stair-climbing wheels truly safe for heavy items like washing machines, or should I be worried about damaging the stairs or the appliances themselves?

    1. Appliance dollies with stair-climbing wheels are specifically designed to help move heavy items like washing machines up and down stairs safely. The wheels distribute weight more evenly and reduce strain. However, it’s crucial to secure the appliance tightly and move slowly, with one person guiding from above. While these dollies help protect both your stairs and appliances, using extra padding and checking the dolly’s weight rating ensures added safety. Take care with delicate stairs, as scratches can still occur if you’re not cautious.

44. If someone has minimal experience with moving equipment, how difficult is it to use the built-in straps and stair-climbing wheels on appliance dollies? Are there any common mistakes beginners should avoid when using these features?

    1. Using the built-in straps and stair-climbing wheels on appliance dollies isn’t overly difficult, but it does require care and attention. Beginners often make mistakes like not securing straps tightly enough or letting them twist, which can make loads unstable. With stair-climbing wheels, the common error is moving too quickly or misaligning the wheels on stairs, which can cause tipping. Take your time, double-check strap security, and move in controlled, steady motions on stairs for safest results.

45. Is there a big difference in price between utility dollies and appliance dollies? I’m on a tight budget for my upcoming move, so I’m wondering if it’s worth renting a specialty dolly or just making do with a basic hand truck.

    1. Utility dollies, also known as basic hand trucks, are usually more affordable to rent than appliance dollies because they have a simpler design and fewer features. Appliance dollies tend to cost a bit more since they come with straps and balancing features to handle heavier or bulkier items. If you mostly need to move boxes or lightweight furniture, a utility dolly should be enough and help keep costs down. For heavy appliances, though, renting an appliance dolly is safer and could prevent damage or injury.

46. As a small business owner who often buys secondhand equipment, what would you recommend for someone on a tight budget? Is it better to invest in one versatile dolly type or buy specialized ones for different tasks?

    1. If you’re working with a tight budget, a versatile, multi-purpose dolly is usually the best investment. Look for a convertible or platform dolly that can handle various loads and surfaces. Buying used can stretch your budget further, but always check the condition carefully. Specialized dollies are helpful for unique tasks, but for most small businesses, one adaptable tool is more practical and cost-effective.

47. You mentioned that appliance dollies have stair-climbing wheels and straps for stability. Are these essential for moving appliances up or down just a few steps, or would a regular hand truck still be safe for that situation?

    1. For moving heavy appliances up or down steps, even just a few, an appliance dolly is much safer than a regular hand truck. The stair-climbing wheels help distribute weight and reduce strain, while the straps keep the appliance secure. A regular hand truck might work for very light loads, but it won’t provide the same stability or control, increasing the risk of tipping or injury when handling large appliances.

48. I’m trying to decide between a utility dolly and a furniture dolly for moving several large but lightweight pieces of furniture. Is one type generally easier for handling awkward shapes, or should I consider using both?

    1. For large but lightweight furniture with awkward shapes, a furniture dolly is usually the better choice. Its flat, wide surface makes it easier to load and balance bulky or oddly-shaped items. However, if you need to move items up or down stairs, a utility dolly with its upright frame and straps might help. Some people use both: the furniture dolly for flat surfaces, and the utility dolly for stairs or tight spaces.

49. Could you clarify the weight capacities you listed? For example, if I have a large dresser that’s just at the top end of a furniture dolly’s capacity, should I risk it or opt for something heavier duty to stay safe?

    1. If your dresser is right at the top end of a furniture dolly’s weight limit, it’s safer to use a more heavy-duty dolly. Overloading can strain the dolly or make it hard to maneuver, increasing the risk of damage or injury. Always aim to have a buffer between your item’s weight and the dolly’s maximum capacity.

50. How can I tell if the dolly I’m looking at can support the weight of my items? Are the weight capacities usually listed somewhere on the dolly itself, and what happens if I accidentally go over that limit?

    1. Most dollies have their weight capacity listed on a sticker or metal plate attached to the frame, usually near the handle or on the platform. You can also find this information in the product manual or description if you’re shopping online. If you exceed the weight limit, the dolly could become unstable, the wheels might get damaged, or the frame could bend, leading to possible injury or equipment failure. Always check the listed capacity before use to stay safe.
