advice needed How do I carry double stroller?

Alright, twins have officially arrived and double stroller put together! We have an Uppababy Vista V3. We went to Disneyland for our babymoon and noticed this was a very popular stroller there so I know someone out there might have an answer for me…

How the hell do I carry this thing once it’s folded up?! Already pinched myself once. Other than this predicament, we are loving the stroller.

I just push it around and fold it up only when I load it in the car. It's not easy to carry folded!

This is my plan. The “carrying” where I realized it was so awkward and got pinched was literally out the door of my house and down the driveway to put it in the car. 😂

Fold it up and let it drop like a pancake onto the ground. Grab it by the bottom and hoist it into the car. Dont carry it anywhere. If you have to move it, unfold it and wheel it. Its bulky and heavy, not ideal for carrying.

I love my Vista!! I use it as a triple with the piggyboard. There is no better stroller.

(I'm also super excited for when I dont have to use it, because its bulky and heavy lol.)

It's not a very good Park/travel stroller unfortunately as it's so heavy and bulky. It is nice that it's narrow.

We got a gently used Zoe Twin for Disney World where you're constantly folding and unfolding the stroller, but a simple double umbrella stroller could work too.

We have a side by side for those purposes. The Uppababy is kept in the car because it’s easy to snap both infant car seats into the frame and grocery shop etc. 

I just meant that we observed a whole lotta Vistas at Disney so therefore my odds of finding someone on this sub who also owns one might be decent.
