A convertible hand truck includes a primary frame, a secondary frame and a linkage member. The primary frame has a hook member and a pair of wheels rotatably mounted thereon. The secondary frame has at least one caster rotatably mounted thereon. The linkage member has one end pivotally joined to the primary frame, and the other end pivotally joined to the secondary frame. In particular, the primary frame is movable into (a) a hand-truck position, generally parallel to the secondary frame, (b) a reclined-cart-position, generally positioned at a predetermined angle with respect to the secondary frame, and (c) a platform-cart position, generally perpendicular to the secondary frame. And while the primary frame is in the reclined-cart-position or the platform-cart position, the hook member of the primary frame secures the primary frame to the secondary frame, and the pair of wheels of the primary frame cooperates with the caster of the secondary frame to support the primary frame.
