Default Dolly wheel

So I need to collect and transport a hot tub. Dry weight approx 300kg, been looking at options but think that dolly wheels / skates are the best method.
Anyone local happen to have some lying about?
Kicking myself as I seen some in Aldi a few weeks ago but don't really want to go fork out £££ just to move the tub onto a trailer and off to my drive.
Alternatively 20 skateboards from pound land may suffice! Or some precision trolley jack manoeuvring...

Scratch that.
Just managed to find 4 in another store - bonus they were reduced to £7.
Rated for 250kg each is a bargain tbh.

Be careful putting a jack under it as they are not fully covered underneath, may be better biting the bullet and get someone like Northspa's to do it for you.
They are good blokes and have used them before.

If at first you dont succeed,avoid skydiving...

No parachute require to freefall,only if you want to do it twice.
