A truss transporting and leveling apparatus (TTLA) that provides a means by which & single person can quickly and easily raise a truss structure and then transport, move and level the truss structure to a required or desired location. The preferred embodiment of the TTLA is comprised of the following major elements: a rear panel, a right side panel, a left side panel, a front panel, leveling means, mobility means, and at least one mounting bolt. The mounting bolt(s) are inserted through an opening on a truss structure, thereby securing the bolt to the truss structure. A nut secures the bolt within a side-oriented T-shape opening while allowing the area of the bolt between flanges to move within horizontal and vertical sections of the opening. A bolt is initially forced from the horizontal section upward into the upper end of the vertical section and then when the jack and upper support platform have completed their travel, the bolt drops downward into the lower end of the vertical section, thereby maintaining the upper support platform at the elevated position.
