I had to bring up a laundry cart to tote everything to the basement: 4 pillows, laundry supplies, four loads of laundry, and the walker. There is a 1/2 inch rise between my door and the hall and I had to fight a full cart while I tried to lift it over the rise into the hall. Stella ran between the legs into the hall, and by the time I got to the elevator, she was no longer on three.
