An apparatus for providing improved transportability for a clothes hamper to and from a laundry facility comprising: a four-wheel assembly and an extendable handle assembly for removable attachment to an existing clothes hamper. The wheeled hamper system further comprises castors which may be rotatable through 360 degrees enabling the clothes hamper to be maneuvered in virtually any direction. At least two wheels of the wheeled hamper system may comprise a wheel brake thereby allowing the clothes hamper to remain stationary during non-use and in-use periods. The extendable handle assembly may be extended or retracted by a user allowing the clothes hamper to be easily pushed or pulled on either four wheels or two wheels. A hamper lid may further be removably attached to the clothes hamper by a hinge enabling the hamper lid to be swingably closed thereby securely retaining the contents of the clothes hamper during transport. In an alternative embodiment, the four-wheel assembly, extendable handle assembly, and hamper lid may be pre-installed to a clothes hamper.
