If Your Furniture Could Talk During a Move, Here’s What It Would Say
We spend our lives with our furniture. It knows our secrets, supports our daily habits, and endures years of use without complaint. But if your belongings could speak up on moving day — they’d have some things to say. We imagine it would go something like this.
The Sectional Couch
“We’ve been through a lot together. Movie nights, naps, that phase where you ate dinner on me every day for two years. I’m asking one thing: please don’t try to get me through that doorway in one piece. I have feelings. And I definitely don’t fit. We’ve already tried this twice.”
The Kitchen Junk Drawer
“I have been meaning to tell you about myself for years. There are batteries in here from 2014. There is a key that opens nothing you currently own. There are 11 takeout menus from restaurants that have closed. I am a time capsule. Handle me with appropriate reverence — or just throw the whole drawer away. Your call.”
The Treadmill
“I was bought in January 2022 with such intention. Such hope. And then for three years and seven months I have served exclusively as a very expensive clothes hanger. And NOW you want to move me? I weigh 280 pounds. I want you to think about what I’ve been through before you start wrapping me in moving blankets.”
The Box Spring
“I cannot go up those stairs. I want to be clear. I have never fit up those stairs. I will not fit up those stairs today. Please arrange for me to enter through a window or simply accept that the guest bedroom will be changed to a bedroom without a bed.”
The Pile of Stuff From the Closet That Wasn’t Packed
“Oh, you forgot about us. Completely understandable. We were very quiet in there. There are 23 of us, of varying shapes, and none of us fit in regular boxes. We look forward to the moving truck. We have waited long enough.”
The One Box With No Label
“Even I don’t know what I contain. This is a mystery we will solve together, probably in six months when you’re looking for something else.”
