Update: Need some help with furniture lifting ?Sunday?

[drwex]

Summary: still need some brief help moving furniture. I'm at the point where I need to make arrangements but if I don't have help then I'll need to postpone.

The person who is going to be receiving the furniture has arranged some lifting help on her end, which reduces my need to about 30-45 minutes for a person or two to help me shift stuff out of and back into the van once I get it to my place. This will likely be late afternoon on Sunday - preferably this Sunday the 7th but I could also try for the 14th or 21st.

I'd like to get it done this Sunday but other Sundays this month are possible. If you're able to assist let me know please.

I'd already volunteered. Just need to know a rough time, please.

Ah Pygment wasn't sure

[drwex]

She had said you might.

The timing will depend entirely on traffic and whether or not I can take a panel van I haven't yet rented up the GS Parkway. I tend to think not, but maybe so. If not it'll add another half hour or more to the trip time.

My plan is to call Pygment when I've got an ETA and have her distribute that information to people.

I can help. Just give me a time to be there.

I appreciate the thought

but we're talking some amount of lifting here. I have you mentally slotted as a person who doesn't lift heavy object - is that wrong?

Recently have helped with the moving of 2 different large chest of drawers and was lifting heavy loads at the 3-Day.

There have been times in the past when heavy lifting has been a no-no...usually due to my head injuries or the occasional back issue. But when I'm in relatively good health, I can help lift most furniture.

Ah, that's good to know. Your help will be welcome. I saw your email working on sorting out the white things, which is also appreciated.

I'll see if I can recruit the roommate as well.

Sadly no. He volunteered at first, then had to back out as he's apparently busy on Sunday.

That probably conflicts with plans this Sunday. I'll let you know when I know the actual time frame. Currently no conflicts on the 14th or 21st.

I'd probably need to leave your place by about 4pm.

Looks like we're pushing off to the 14th

I also seem to have a couple crew available so I'm less panicked than I was. OTOH, see my email to you.
