How to Choose the Right Furniture Dolly Casters
Choose casters based on load, floor type, and mobility needs. Swivel casters allow tight turns; locking casters keep dollies stationary. Rubber treads reduce noise and protect floors indoors. Steel casters suit heavy industrial use or rough terrain.
Larger wheels handle obstacles and uneven floors better. For heavy or commercial furniture moving, use four or more casters with matching load ratings for stability. Plate mounts provide secure attachment to dollies and carts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What load capacity should furniture dolly casters have?
Choose casters with a load capacity that exceeds the total weight of the furniture plus the dolly. Typically, each caster should support at least one-quarter of the combined weight.
Are swivel or fixed casters better for furniture dollies?
Swivel casters offer better maneuverability for furniture dollies, especially in tight spaces. Fixed casters provide stability but less turning ability.

Polyurethane, rubber, and steel are common. Rubber and polyurethane reduce noise and protect floors, while steel casters handle heavier loads and rough surfaces.
Can furniture dolly casters be locked in place?
Yes, many furniture dolly casters come with locking mechanisms to prevent movement when stationary, improving safety during loading or unloading.
