A bucket transporter is provided including a dolly frame with a central base and at least one axle coupled to the base and extending outwardly therefrom and a pair of wheels rotatably coupled to ends of the axle. Further included is a dolly post coupled to the central base and extending upwardly therefrom. A bottom support including a circular ring is pivotally coupled to the central base of the dolly frame such that the bottom support is adapted to only swivel between a lowered orientation with the circular ring situated within a horizontal plane and a raised orientation with the circular ring situated within a vertical plane.

[ I claim:] [1.] A bucket transporter comprising, in combination:a bucket having a circular bottom face with a cylindrical periphery coupled thereto and extending upwardly therefrom thus defining an interior space and an opening having a peripheral lip;a dolly frame including a central base with a top face, a bottom face, a front face, a rear face, and a pair of side faces formed therebetween, the top face having a pair of slots formed therein adjacent the side faces of the base and a circular bore formed in a central extent thereof about a vertical axis, the bottom face having an arcuate front extent, the dolly frame further including a pair of axles coupled to the side faces of the base and extending outwardly therefrom in coaxial relationship and a pair of wheels rotatably coupled to ends of the axles;a dolly post having a linear lower extent that has a length over 3/4 that of the total length of the post and a linear upper extent forming an obtuse angle of about 120 degrees with the lower extent, the upper extent having an elastomeric handle grip formed at an upper end thereof, wherein a bottom end of the lower extent of the dolly post is removably coupled within the circular bore of the base of the dolly frame;a bottom bucket support including a circular ring with a peripheral lip coupled thereto and extending upwardly therefrom, at least one support strip coupled between diametrically opposed points along the circular ring, the peripheral lip of the bottom support having a pair of spaced and parallel arms coupled thereto and extending rearwardly therefrom for pivotally coupling to the base of the dolly frame within the slots thereof, whereby the bottom bucket support is adapted to only swivel between a lowered orientation with the circular ring situated within a horizontal plane and a raised orientation with the circular ring situated within a vertical plane; andan upper bucket support including a plate having a rectangular configuration with a circular bore formed therein between a top face and a bottom face thereof for slidably receiving the lower extent of the dolly post and a threaded aperture formed in an end of the plate adjacent the bore for threadedly receiving a wing nut which may engage the dolly post for maintaining the upper bucket support at a fixed elevation, an end of the plate opposite the circular bore having a pair of prongs integrally coupled thereto and extending downwardly therefrom;whereby the bucket may be situated on the bottom bucket support when in the lowered orientation and the upper bucket support may be lowered such that the prongs engage the peripheral lip of the bucket whereafter the upper bucket support is fixed via the wing nut thereby allowing the transporting of the bucket.
