A dolly for large appliances facilitates manual movement of soft drink vending machines, refrigerators, etc. The dolly has a dropped floor between each end, with the ends raised for installation of casters therebeneath. The lower central floor area is preferably only about 1.5 inches above the lower supporting surface when the dolly is resting thereon, thereby allowing a large machine to be tilted slightly and the dolly maneuvered therebeneath. The low floor also results in a very low ride height for the appliance, enabling the appliance to fit upright through a standard doorway. Carrying the appliance sideways on the dolly, also permits large vending machines to fit through a standard doorway by opening the door of the machine to narrow the effective width of the machine. A roller lever is also provided, for lifting one end of loaded dolly for maneuvering the lifted end across thresholds and other floor discontinuities.
