Bar table dollies, lifters

Wonder what everyone here who has bar tables uses to lift and move the tables. I'm going to have a table in my garage but need to move (roll) out of the way when I need the space to work on a vehicle. I moved 100's of tables on their sides when at tournaments but that's a 2 man job so does anyone lift 1 end to place caster dollies under feet so can roll or a motorcycle hydraulic lift under center wood to lift all 4 legs to roll?

Just want to see ways you do it to move around. Once I make where legs go on the concrete should stay pretty darn level every time I bring back to that spot if the legs are locked.

The local Legion use a scissor style lift dolly to move around one of its 8ft Valleys.

I don't recommend this method. I did this when I did the epoxy on my garage floor. This also allowed me to determine where in the garage would be the best placement considering the walls, slope, attic door, and ridge around the floor. I did have the table on these skates with the slate on it for a bit, but I had plans to have it recovered professionally.

Why don't you recommend? It's a 1 piece slate bar table so they are made to be moved all over and ply the same cause slate stays level. Just want to know if better to lift center with a scissor lift or all 4 legs on dollies

Where ever you level it mark the position well. If we dont get the one at the legion in the exact spot it will play a bit off.
 
Would this work? It goes to the same height as the $499 bar table moving unit.

That's exactly the one I was looking at cause my dad has similar for his motorcycle. Since solid wood bottom. To me lifting in center to move makes most sense and easiest. Just wanted to see how others do it or if they made their own contraption

I think I’ll buy the $129 one and tell everyone how it worked out.
 
This is what the Veterans clubs in town use. They went together to buy it and share when needed. Works great.

In my case, I had a three piece slate. Also, the table did not stay still. While the legs lock in place, it would move if you leaned on the table at all...
