I need a small table/ chest of drawers in fact anything strong & approx 2ft x 1ft 6. Must have castors as it will be moved on a regular basis supporting a heavy item.Not bothered about scratches as long as reasonable price.Can collect if not to far from Moreton,I dont drive so would have to ask neighbour. Thanks
Is it something that will be on display indoors and therefore need to look presentable , or is it just a platform to transport something from A to B and then be out of sight , and how high does it have to be ?
Hi Venice,it will be used indoors only & height approx 18 inches.Ive renovated a dolls house for my 3 year old Grandchild but want to move it from living room when she's not visiting.The house is very heavy & wooden
Ah, what I have wouldnt be suitable Im afraid ,thought it might just be for a large planter or something, its rough cut plain wood just over 3ft long and 18" wide on casters a ft high . Its just the frame, would still have needed a piece of ply to fit on top . I understand your problem, we hoik around our old dolls house when the grandchildren come too!!
Thanks anyway Venice.Ive been haunting charity shops so still hoping to get something
Castors £2.10 for 4 at toolstation or cheaper plastic twin wheel ones £1.59 for 4.

Thanks Fish, Worth thinking about ,probably easier to find a table without castors & fit them
Hi Lincle, how about an old tea trolley. Some stronger than others.
Examples;
http://www.ebay.co.uk/bhp/tea-trolleyphone up the charity shops, junk shops and house clearance. You never know what they will have.
Hi Granny,looked at a couple of trolleys but they didn't look strong enough.Ive left my number with some shops so still hopeful. If anyone out there spots something please let me know. Zimmers excluded !
Hi Lincle, I've just come in from shopping at Aldi and they have a Trolley do;;y there that would suit you. It has big strong castors with an 18mm thick board on them, the board is 400mmx400mm square, and is probably about 8/10 inches high - maybe these aren't exactly what you want but the thing is certainly very robust and you could probably adapt it. Incidentally, it is priced at £14.99 - I hope this is of some use to you.
Hi Everyone, Firstly thanks to you all can I ask you to keep the suggestions coming.The Aldi trolley wasn't what I was looking for .I need the house to be raised a good couple of feet off the floor so my Grandchild doesn't need to lie on her tummy to see inside it.
Try putting a wanted post on freecycle site Lincle it gets results sometimes otherwise I think find a table in a junk shop and do the Castor's as Fish suggests.
Yours if OK Prenton 15" width 24" length 15" high. Send pm please.
Hi Dusty I've pm'd you but don't know if You got it. The table looks fine but a relative has told me he has one.Ive not seen it yet & can't contact him until tomorrow afternoon.Will it be ok if I contact you again then. Thanks
No message no problem. I am busy the next couple of days,so just let me know.Cheers!
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions .Dusty thanks so much but I've been given one by a relative .
HiDusty Sorry to be a pain but the relatives table isn't at all suitable so if you still have could I take you up on your offer? I have no room left to p.m you so if you let me have your number I will ring you.Thanks
Hi Dusty, Thanks so much,table is perfect . Shelf is an additional bonus.
