I haven't seen those (don't watch tv), but our elementary PE department has
some scooters that are about 14" square with four 2" casters on them.
During the year the kids scoot around the gym on them (tile floor), and
when we need to move things like shelves we can just lift up one end, slide
one of those scooters under it, and then pick up the other end and set it
on another scooter. I've sometimes moved smaller things with just one
scooter in the middle, but that can be a bit tippy. Two is better. For
short distances one person can move something (or if there is LOTS of empty
space), but it is usually easier to have two people steering. Rolling is
easy, even on carpet. Steering, though, is fun! They never seem to want to
go in the direction you want them to.
If you don't have such things around, your maintenance people could
probably make some quickly. If you need directions email me privately and
I'll send you the information.
