Need strong backs and a van: moving Kumiko to safer housing
Moving day on Tuesday: we need a few strong people and ideally a van.
🇯🇵 Osaka, Osaka, Japan337 views
After a break-in at the old place, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Osaka, and the lease starts on Tuesday. I have three kids, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for a few strong people for about six hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the third floor with no elevator 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 for reading my story.

A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Osaka.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Newcastle upon Tyne.
You're not alone. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update.
Hope you get there. Greetings from Red Deer.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I hope August is when things finally get easier
