Hello, is anybody available to help me for a couple of hours around noon on Saturday in exchange for some cash?
I need to load a few things on a van in Whitemans Valley and take them to storage in Taita.
The heaviest items are a queen size futon mattress (rolled up and taped) and a small desk and a small chest of drawers. I will have a trolley so we could use that on the staircase or carry the things together.
The rest are boxes.
Thank you!

Open Homes: A necessary nightmare
