Abstract: A method of constructing a bottle carrier for a two-wheeled hand truck having a normally generally vertically disposed hand truck frame comprising transversely spaced side rails joined by at least a pair of vertically spaced cross rails between its upper and lower ends includes the steps of providing a generally upright carrier frame having a projecting platform of a size to support a bottle in upright position and which incorporates a bottle girth enveloping element of a size to closely embrace the diameter of an upright bottle on the platform; and providing vertically spaced load bearing parts on the carrier frame spaced apart vertically a distance corresponding to the vertical spacing of the pair of cross rails and configured to disengagably latch the carrier against the cross-rails.
