Daily Dose of Struggle Bus: Moving A Couch Up an NYC Walk-Up

Moving in New York City.

Five words, one agonizing hellscape of sensations that know no bounds.

Packing is one thing, getting movers another, but then… the behemoth. The gaudy monstrosity that is the tacky three-seater passed from curb to apartment to another apartment (and probably not the last one ever).

The couch.

The Sofa. The Sofa King deluxe bullsh*t that's been delivered straight from the mouth of hell to the stairwell of your apartment building.

Of course, it's easy to breakdown the pain. It's much more difficult to figure out a solution, which our friends at Burrow just. Might. Have. Done.

The immovable object standing between you and potential domestic bliss.

If there's a nightmare we replay over and over, either real or imagined, it's much like the one we’ve created with a little help from our friends Edge in Motion Productions.

Of course, it's easy to breakdown the pain. It's much more difficult to figure out a solution, which our friends at Burrow just. Might. Have. Done.




Yeah, before you think about getting a giant ass couch you'll have to finagle into the building, deftly maneuver up the stairs (LOL), and then into your apartment’s doorway (GODSPEED), think about getting a Burrow.

Burrow is a modular couch that you buy online and get delivered right to your door. It comes in a few boxes, takes 10 minutes to assemble, and has an electrical outlet with a USB adapter attached just under the seat so you can plug your couch into the wall outlet that inevitably gets covered up, and plug any device you need right into your couch.

Commiserate with your troubled friends who knew not what they were doing when they decided that their giant ass couch was a good idea.

Then, dry your eyes, pick yourself up off the floor, and head to your nearest furniture store. 

Carefully pace the general couch area, casually sneak up behind each and every couple, and whisper, ever so gently, “Why must we all suffer?”

Obviously, either don't do any of that, or do it and run, but then head over to Burrow—on your phone, on your desktop, doesn’t matter ‘cause it’s easy AF—and find the couch that you know won't drive you to madness/leave you in tears/end your marriage.

Get a two seater—hell, get a 20-seater—get it in one of five different colors, and get it without having to set foot in an obnoxious cafeteria or pretentious showroom. 

Oh, and if you're not in love with it? Welp. You get a 100-day trial. 

You're welcome.
