ABSTRACT:
This invention involves an apparatus for lifting and transporting toilets. The apparatus includes a base portion, at least two toilet lifting members, a toilet securing member, and a lifting mechanism. The toilet lifting members are configured for positioning underneath the bowl portion of a toilet. The toilet securing member extends upward from the base and contains a u-shaped upper portion that is designed to fit over the rim of the toilet bowl and secure to the inner portion of the toilet bowl. The lifting mechanism preferably comprises a handle attached to a piston. The base portion includes wheels for transport. The toilet lifting members and the toilet securing member contain a padded region for contacting the toilet to prevent damage. The toilet securing member is height adjustable to accommodate various sized toilets. An extension portion is provided for attachment to the u-shaped portion to secure larger toilets.
