Abstract: The invention is a collapsible luggage cart for hauling luggage items across a floor. The luggage cart includes a handle, a carrying platform for receiving the luggage items, and a hinge which is used to connect the carrying platform to the handle so that the carrying platform is pivotal between a fully raised position wherein the carrying platform is generally parallel to the handle, and a fully lowered position wherein the carrying platform is generally perpendicular to the handle. Means are provided for supporting the luggage cart assembly in a vertical position with respect to the floor when the carrying platform is in either the fully raised position or the fully lowered position.
