box because I don't particularly want it in the kitchen and there
isn't any room in the bathroom, and b) now I have this nice new couch
so I don't want them destroying it so soon. Tough call. BTW, are
couch and sofa interchangeable? I use them interchangeably, but I'm
never sure. My couch would NEVER fit through a window (although we
considered it). The delivery guys said they weren't authorized to
hoist it (they aren't authorized to do a lot of things). I basically
DID hire movers--the delivery guys who charged $99. If they didn't
do it I would have hired someone else. Should have hired my original
movers from when I moved in a year ago. they do good work.
