Last year when moving from one apartment to another, I transported all my furniture and possessions by bike!
For those on Mastodon, the #CarryShitOlympics hashtag has some real gems in this style.
It’s so good!
I wanted to challenge myself to do it all by bike, so I started the lease on my new apartment a month before my old lease expired.
So they spent an entire month additional rent probably like $1500+ so that they could do this??? Carrying stuff in bikes is fun, but this seems pretty out of touch.
I’ve given myself a month of overlap even moving by car/truck before. Much less stressful than having to move everything in one day or moving everything to a storage unit then back into the new house (moving everything twice).
Seconding this - I’ve done the month overlap thing twice, with cars and a moving truck and everything. Once because my current landlords expected me out on the last day and the new people wouldn’t let me move in until noon on the first even though the place was already empty for “renovations” (slapping another coat of white paint over everything, dirt and all). The other time because I had a line on a great place and didn’t want to miss it. It still made moving way easier and I was able to skip the moving truck that time.
My rent is $1k, not an insurmountable extra cost for just one month. Even if I were going to do it by car, I wouldn’t have wanted to start my new lease right when the old one ended, because the added stress of moving everything in one day would have been significant.
Okay understood!

That is awesome, but it reminds me of this Portlandia sketch: https://youtu.be/dDWbevekowI
That’s offensive! 😆 The shirts they got for that sketch are spot-on. “If it’s fixed, don’t brake it” is absolutely I could see friends wearing.
