Abstract: A transportable utility carrier apparatus for coupling to a transport vehicle, including an upper frame, a recessed platform connected to the upper frame, a wheeled base, a lift system interposed between the base and the upper frame for moving the wheeled base relative to the platform between a transport position and a freestanding position, a square hitch tube connected to the upper frame, and a rollered receiver hitch mountable to the transport vehicle. The wheels are spaced from the ground in the transport position. The square hitch tube is receivable within the rollered receiver hitch and the rollered receiver hitch eases insertion of the square hitch tube thereinto to prevent binding on unleveled ground.
