Hand truck is equipped with integral universal clamping system arranged for restraining loads of varying geometric configurations back and against the upright frame of the hand truck. The integral clamping system is comprised of a telescoping clamp bar carrying a gear operated load restraining clamp equipped with universal load gripping fingers. Clamp bar and clamp telescope inwardly and outwardly to accommodate cargo of varying depth and are pivotally mounted to a lug inside the vertical slide track, allowing the clamping system to function over the entire height of the hand truck, pivot up and down, swing horizontally from side to side or, be stowed completely out of the way inside the slide track for conventional use of the hand truck.
