Hire Someone to Pick Up and Deliver Furniture
Do you need to hire someone to pick up and deliver furniture? In the past, when a retail store didn’t offer delivery services, it could be a major inconvenience.
You would have a few options. The first would be to call a friend with a truck and offer them gas money, and perhaps pizza, to help you out.
