Flowerpot Moving Device

A flowerpot moving device that allows a user to move large flowerpots quickly and with ease, the flowerpot moving device comprising:

• a body component shaped as a flowerpot, which comprises an upper opening, an upright arcuate wall forming a somewhat cylindrically-shaped container, wherein the upright arcuate wall has an interior surface and an exterior surface, and a bottom for holding planting medium and one or more living or artificial plants, and wherein the wall tapers inward from the upper perimeter surrounding the upper opening to the bottom;
• a set of wheels mounted to either end of an axle and secured to the bottom of the body component at a first end;
• a stabilizing bar secured to the bottom of the body component, on an opposing side from the set of wheels;
• and
• a handle comprising two parallel vertical rods connected at their ends, in a spaced apart configuration by a horizontal rod, which acts as a handhold;
• wherein the upper perimeter of the body component is formed in an outward roll to provide structural rigidity to the body component at the upper opening;
• wherein the stabilizing bar fits underneath the body component and does not protrude out from the bottom and is same height as the set of wheels, ensuring that the body component remains in place;
• wherein the handle is secured to an upper perimeter of the body component;
• wherein the handle comprises at least one telescoping segment that allows a total length of the handle to be extended or retracted;
• wherein the at least one telescoping segment is hollow and has a slip lock for locking the at least one telescoping segments at a specific length;
• wherein the horizontal rod of the handle comprises a button, which when depressed releases the handle and allows the handle to retract to its original position;
• and
• further wherein a user pulls the handle and moves the body component via the set of wheels, allowing the user to transport the body component to and from any location with minimal physical effort required.

A method of moving a flowerpot, the method comprising the following steps:

• providing a flowerpot moving device comprising a body component with a base portion and an upper perimeter portion, such that a set of wheels are secured to the base and a rubber stabilizing bar on the opposite side, and a telescoping handle secured to the upper perimeter portion;
• filling the flowerpot body component with dirt and flowers, as desired;
• extending the handle and tilting the body component on its wheels;
• transporting the flowerpot body component via the wheels, by pulling the handle;
• and
• retracting the handle once the flowerpot has been moved to a desired location.
