An apparatus 2 for transporting an aircraft wheel comprises a platform 4, configured to receive an aircraft wheel; at least one retractable roller mechanism (6, see fig.2) connected to the platform and configured to move between a retracted state and an extended state: and an actuator 8 arranged to move the at least one roller mechanism between the retracted state and the extended state. The roller mechanism is configured to a least partially support the platform when it is in the extended state. The roller mechanism may be a swivel castor, a plurality of roller mechanisms which may be a plurality of swivel castors. The platform may be entirely supported on at least one roller mechanism when it is in the extended state. The platform may comprise a mounting portion, the portion comprises a mounting surface which may comprise non-slip material. The apparatus may also comprise anchor points to which a restraining member may be attached. Finally, the actuator may comprise a lever, and may be located on the side of the apparatus.
