​For most of our clients bringing laptops, that's not too bad, and closer
for things bought at Flea.

For us with gear, we would need to unload in front and go park, taking
turns watching the gear/room and reverse at end. Doable.
(Alternatively, we could use carts with streetworthy wheels instead of
indoor wheels, as i did with my overpriced garage last time.)

I have the wheeled gurney that can be used to ferry any desktops to/from
curbside or Fleamarket ... i did that at the old Ubuntu UG installfests in
Media Lab lobby, I called it cURBuntu service :-)  ​

Bigger issue with Flea is whether / how-soon they get space and dates for
this year  !!
