Moving day volunteers: Alice's family relocating in Winston-Salem

Alice has found a safe new apartment in Winston-Salem and needs help moving heavy furniture on Thursday.

After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Winston-Salem, and the lease starts on Thursday. I have my elderly father, 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 just one flight of stairs. 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. Thank you so much.

    Take care, Alice. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 6 people at work. God bless.

      You're not alone, Alice. I hope things turn around soon. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!

      • Lena Ingrid Åberg

        Sending good thoughts, Alice. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best

          Hope things get better soon, Alice. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'll check back for the next update!

            Wishing you peace. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.

              I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Reading this morning. Greetings from Reading

                  Praying for you. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.

                    Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

                      So sorry you're going through this, Alice. Your post was clear and honest

                        take care, Alice. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
