A container skate of synthetic material facilitates movement of a container. A sliding body has two inclined ends facilitating sliding of the body in opposite directions with a container thereon without further damage to the container or support surface over which it is moved. The body has an upstanding plug extendable into a container corner fitting so pulling of the container draws the body with it, sliding over a surface while bearing container weight. The body further includes a stop member extending therefrom and spaced from said plug.
