A transport device includes a flexible base plate which is rolled up when not in use and is spread out flat to receive a load to be transported and is raised at least at the longitudinal sides when in use. The transport device has holes for the attachment of straps or belts at least along two longitudinal edges of the base plate. Reinforcing elements each include two plates fixed to the base plate on both sides by an eyelet and two further fastening elements associated with the holes. The eyelet borders the hole for attachment of the strap or belt. The eyelet and the two further fastening elements are disposed in a triangle.
