A lift table includes a receiving and supporting assembly and at least one lifting arm that extends perpendicularly to the receiving and supporting assembly. The assembly and the arm are mounted on a frame for pivotal movement between an article supporting positon, wherein the receiving and supporting assembly extends horizontally and the lifting arm extends vertically, and an article receiving position, wherein the lifting arm extends horizontally and the receiving and supporting assembly extends vertically. While the assembly is in the latter position, an article is attached to the lifting arm. Then, the assembly is pivoted to the article supporting position. During this movement, the receiving and supporting assembly moves under the article, so that the article is transferred from the lifting arm to the receiving and supporting assembly.
