Yes, this. Many people transport their goods by public transport, using a trolley. See this:

Even though it was written about how to look up "barrier-free" in Zurich, presumably similar info will be available for your public transport system.

This is very wise advice. You'll soon gather from their reaction what they (as Taxi drivers, and it won't be much different for an Uber driver) think is reasonable, or not, and what they would charge.
Taxis charge waiting-time, i.e. minutes that they are available for you, but not yet driving. That rate would probably apply while you were walking backwards and forwards loading up the car. Uber charges by the minute.

Good for them! Perhaps good for you, too, if you accept their help and pay them the fee. After all, if you travel by Uber or Taxi, or hire a van (even through Mobility) you'll have to pay, too. The only way I know of, to do it for free or nearly free, it to carry the goods yourself, by public transport (see above).

Good advice.
Good luck with your move!
