A seat stowage cart enables loading, transporting, and stowing a removable vehicle seat of the type found in sport utility vehicles. The seat is drawn manually upon a pair of ramps which pivot on a frame. The seat passes over the pivot axis, urging the ramps toward a seat stowage position, therein supported by a pair of support members. The ramps are adjustable for seats of varying width. The frame is selectively variable in height, and includes wheels. A pawl is provided for releasably locking the ramps against pivoting, and for blocking the seat wheels from rolling.
