Help a family move in Albany - 4-hour job
Moving day on Thursday: we need anyone with a van and ideally a van.
🇺🇸 Albany, New York, United States425 views
After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Albany, and the lease starts on Thursday. I have two children, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for anyone with a van for about five hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the fourth floor walk-up and the new place has an elevator. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Avery. I hope things turn around soon
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care
So sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
so sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Albany.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 26 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Mysuru
