Doubt they will shift, but they will be a pita to move around in front of
the lift every time you move it. I doubt it will do any damage to the
carpet if you use nothing. Weight is evenly distributed as you roll. Just
don't turn the wheels when you are not moving.

Steering only while rolling is a great answer and a correct answer but it
seems the person they charge with changing light bulbs isn't always part
of the brain trust for the organization. So repeating the instructions
many, many times doesn't always work.

A helper moving plywood might be cheaper in the long run.

Just a thought.
