This reminds me. Keep in mind what you are moving acrossed. If its gym floors, Craig's idea would work great. If it was out door in the grass. Might want to reconsider. The main difference would be how high it goes and the type of wheels. However, I think hydraulics would definitely be the best for lifting.
