The number of times I have been in that situation is to damn high. Even if I do have a friend around it will usually be someone who can’t pick up the other side of the coach somehow. So then you throw the whole damn thing on your back and carry it up/down the apartment stairs and wonder why it was so much harder than it was a few years earlier. “I need to be able to afford movers next time” you think… As you move someplace with unaffordable rent and your best friend debt riding in back seat.
