ABSTRACT:
A tool for moving material includes a relatively large rectangular platform for receiving material to be moved. A handle extends from the rearward edge of the platform and is secured to the platform by a handle receiving shank secured to the platform over a portion of its length from the rearward edge of the platform. The platform is preferably a flat sheet of semi-rigid or slightly flexible material such as an aluminum-spring steel alloy and the handle receiving shank causes a slight curve in the material over the length of attachment. The platform is such that as it is pushed under material to be moved, and such material is loaded onto the platform, the platform curves or sags to receive and hold such material so that the loaded platform may be dragged and the loaded material will substantially remain on the platform during such dragging.
