A collapsible luggage carrier having a load support beam with a wheel assembly attached near each end of the support beam. A pair of folding spaced-apart support forks are pivotally mounted to the support beam. Also provided is a pair of folding frame struts, each comprised of an upper elongate member pivotally attached to a lower elongate member, the free ends of the upper elongate members terminating in handle portions juxtaposed or optionally fastened detachably together to define a complete handle, and the free ends of the lower elongate members spaced-apart and pivotally mounted to the load support beam.

A collapsible luggage carrier that folds into a compact linear configuration, said luggage carrier comprising: (a) a rigid load support beam; (b) a wheel assembly attached proximate each end of the support beam; (c) a pair of independently folding spaced-apart load support forks, pivotally mounted to the support beam inward of and proximate to the wheel assemblies, the support forks when folded nesting adjacent to each other and against the support beam; (d) means for locking each support fork in an unfolded position; (e) a pair of independently folding frame struts, each comprised of an upper elongate member pivotally attached to a lower elongate member, the free ends of the upper elongate members terminating in handle portions juxtaposed to define a complete handle, the lower ends of the lower elongate members spaced-apart and pivotally mounted to the load support beam proximate to the wheel assemblies, the upper and lower elongate members of each folding frame strut pivoting approximately in the same plane as the upper and lower elongate members of the other folding frame strut, so that when the folding frame struts are in a folded position: the upper and lower elongate members of each folding frame strut nest adjacent to each other, the nested elongate members of each folding frame strut nest adjacent to the nested elongate members of the other folding frame strut and both folding frame struts nest against the support beam with the handle portions overlaying the ends of the support beam; and (f) means for locking each folding frame strut in an unfolded position.
