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?

A friend sold her white couch on Craigslist after her brother got drunk, broke his nose, then passed out face down on the couch. She woke up to find it *covered* in blood. She cleaned the cover, then sold it on craigslist. You never know what people are selling.
