A braking apparatus for a hand truck that keeps the hand truck stable while lifting or dropping a load from the hand truck. The braking apparatus includes a lever and clamps for pivotally mounting the lever to an axle of the hand truck, and a recoiling mechanism that allows the lever to switch between a deployed position and a non-interfering position. The operator can press the lever against the floor to prevent the rolling of the hand truck while loading.
