Device for transporting a load comprises a chassis including two longitudinal girders crossing each other so as to form the general shape of an asymmetrical X, the height of the V of the upper portion being equal to N times the height of the V of the lower portion (e.g. N=3). A device for support on the ground is arranged at the lower end of the lower V. while the ends of the legs of the upper V comprise handles. Braces are provided to ensure a parallelism between an axis of a supporting element of the support device, and a straight line connecting the ends of the handles. The load is placed at least partially on a seat formed by two cross members that are arranged on either side of the crossing point of the longitudinal girders.
