Simple: Go to your local hardware store. Find a furniture dolly. When you get it back to your build area, add a handle.

Better: Garden supply store, get a cart. Bigger tires and a raised workbed. Better for going over those pesky cable covers.

Best: Custom cart that can go over said cable covers, with rails for the robot, toolboxes, etc.

I'd go with the garden-type cart, at least for now. You could modify it later.
