Why Your Friends Hate Helping You Move
(and Why You Should Hire Pros & Save Friendships)
(Hint: Call Us)
We all know the drill: you bribe your friends with pizza and beer, promise it’ll “only take a couple of hours,” and suddenly it’s eight hours later, your couch is wedged in the stairwell, and your best friend hasn’t spoken to you since 2 p.m.
Let’s be honest—friends hate helping you move. And honestly? They have every right to. But don’t worry, there’s a better way. Let’s break it down.
1. Pizza and Beer Are Not Currency
Sure, pizza is delicious and beer is refreshing. But when your buddy has just carried your 300-pound dresser down three flights of stairs, a pepperoni slice doesn’t cut it.
The pro fix: Movers don’t need pizza bribes. We show up ready to lift heavy stuff because it’s literally our job.
2. Friends Don’t Have the Gear
Your friend Chad has a pickup truck. Great. But does Chad have moving blankets, dollies, lifting straps, or furniture pads? Nope. And that’s why your dresser has a new dent.
The pro fix: At 1+MOVERS, we come armed with all the gear to move your stuff safely, quickly, and without new battle scars on your furniture.
3. Nobody Knows How to Carry a Couch Properly
Moving a couch isn’t a two-person freestyle dance routine—it’s a science. Most friends end up turning it into a comedy sketch instead.
The pro fix: Professional movers are basically couch ninjas. Tight corners, narrow doorways, spiral staircases—we’ve done it all without the sitcom laugh track.
4. The “I Suddenly Have Plans” Escape
Funny how many friends are “busy” the weekend you’re moving. Can you blame them? They know what’s coming.
The pro fix: We don’t cancel last minute. Our movers actually show up (and on time, too).
5. Accidents Happen (Especially with Amateurs)
Your bestie didn’t mean to drop that box labeled “Fragile.” But accidents are bound to happen when people aren’t trained.
The pro fix: We know how to wrap, stack, and transport valuables so they arrive in one piece. Plus, we’re insured—your friends can’t say the same.
6. Your Friendship Deserves Better
Nothing tests a friendship like arguing over how to angle a queen-sized mattress up the stairs. Do you really want to risk it?
The pro fix: Protect your friendships. Let movers handle the heavy lifting while your friends show up later for the housewarming party (with the beer this time).
The Bottom Line
Your friends love you. But they don’t love sweating through their shirt while hauling boxes across town. And honestly, they shouldn’t have to.
That’s where we come in. At 1+MOVERS, we handle the grunt work so you can save your friendships—and still get the pizza delivered when the job’s done.
