Id like something able to carry ~6 1U Dell servers at once, and maybe make it over an elevator gap without a running start. Collapsible would also be nice, if I can throw it in the back of a car once in a while is a big plus.
Look at medium-/heavy-duty luggage carts for luggage going on airplanes. I've moved incredible loads -- like a half-dozen full-tower desktops _and_ a 20" CRT in one trip -- on a good _medium-duty_ one (similar to a "Clipper 200"). If I were buying one today, I'd look hard at a Clipper 450, or, if I could justify the money, a Clipper 730, for the folding 'shelf' cum work- surface. Wesco and Kart-A-Bag are good brands too. You probably wont go far wrong with any such in the (circa) $60 and up price range. double-check the wheel- size (5" min, 6" better) though. They all go better over elevator gaps if you pull rathe than push 'em. :) see <http://www.handtrucks.com/hand-trucks/folding-hand-trucks/4567+1579+2524.cfm> for lot of possibilities Note: I have no experience with that vendor, google images search led me to them.
