pallet jack
Manual load lifter
A pallet jack is a wheeled tool for lifting and moving pallets.
The operator slides two flat forks under a pallet, pumps a handle to raise the load a few inches off the ground, then rolls it to a new location.
Manual pallet jacks are human-powered; electric versions handle the lifting and propulsion mechanically.
Also called a pallet truck.
