I just have to bring it to, I would share.

I have a tenant who they ask and her to cut her sofa up to get it into the apartment.

So, I mean, this is real.

So I will give it to the chair and Nitro also.

They are building apartments much smaller or their reconstruction of the apartment, and the tenants should not have to be concerned with throwing away their furniture or cutting it in half and sewing it back up when it get inside.
