hiring someone to move will cost more than the couch itself

Do they move the stuff too? I’m looking at an upcoming move for my house locally. Things like heavy furniture. I’d do all the packing.


No. It's literally people with pickup trucks doing gigs. Hire a licensed/insured moving company.

Whether you use movers or someone off of Craigslist, etc, you should plan for it to cost about this much. You will need two people and make sure to consider both homes - if it’s going to be a tight fit or any awkward smaller spaces to navigate, the movers you hire could cause damage.

This is why buying furniture from other people often is not money saving if you can’t move it yourself.

look on craigslist. i think there's even a guy on there that says he's a veteran and does these kinds of jobs.
you will find a few options.

There are small mover companies like "Two Men and a Truck."

Roommate and I are thinking of buying a couch off Craigslist. We’re both short so we’re unsure about being able to carry it up/down stairs by ourselves without damaging us or couch or building. Who should we call to help with this: moving company, Task Rabbit, day laborer? How many people does it take to lift a normal full-size (3seat) couch? What’s a reasonable cost for moving one item cross-town?
