The trailers were absolutely essential. All of the loads could have been done without ebikes, but I probably would have had fewer friends willing to help on that day if we were on acoustic bikes.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure OP wouldn't be able to carry that by bike.

Carry what? Bet I can.

Maybe "wouldn't be able to" was a little strongly worded, for I've seen people carry the weirdest stuff by bike, from 65" flatscreens to mid-sized furniture, but it cannot possibly be comfortable nor safe to carry a sofa by bike (eg. not a trailer pulled by bike/car/pedestrian) for any significant distance.

If you have any kind of trailer, then that's of course a entirely different story.
