Abstract: A hand truck assembly for lifting and moving heavy loads includes a plate, which is engaged to and which extends from a lower end of a rod. The plate is positionable on a surface beneath a load with the rod extending upwardly. A user can grasp and pull the rod, proximate to an upper end of the rod. A rearward frame is engaged to and extends from the rod proximate to the lower end so that the rearward frame is opposingly positioned on the rod relative to the plate. An axle is rotationally engaged to the rearward frame and is perpendicular to the rod. A pair of wheels is engaged singly to opposed ends of the axle. A lower limit of the pair of wheels is coplanar with the plate. The load is lifted from the surface by pulling on the rod to pivot the plate around the axle.
