They will need to teleport or leave early.
If they don't and you can (or want to) use mods - https://ravasheen.com/download/uplifting-elevators/
The realm of magic portals might be useful as a short cut if you place one at the top floor and one at the edge of the lot.
I tend to use the Teleport option.

I live on the ground where nature intended. All I can think of is how awful moving in/out of a 4th floor walk up must be.
The Sims 4 hasn't introduced a new musical instrument since 2017
In my twenties, I once lived in a fifth floor walkup. That was about twenty years ago, and I think my body is still broken from that move-in.
I was in great shape the year that I lived there, though. But I did, in fact, have to plan extra time to get to work.
She would have absolutely loved this! She has a collection of dragons
In reality, she hired movers.
Whoa I should have asked for that back in the day @luthienrising !
This discussion is taking me back to some of my TS2 university sims who would spend their whole class period walking across the dorm to leave for class!
They may be saving that for the Livestream. Even if there are no new ones the City Living elevators will work.
They don't work as elevators and you can only have one on the lot.
That reminds me when my brother last year and his wife help me moved out of a college dorm .The stairs were four flights and well it was torture.
I build a lot of housing complex when I first started playing but I was not shy to used mods. Ravasheen has elevators. https://ravasheen.com/download/uplifting-elevators/
Alternatively, I saw a streamer on twitch, Pugowned, who made an "elevator shoot" without cc. Not sure if she put it up on the gallery, but it was basically a small elevator size room, with debuged items. It looked like an official elevator, but once you get in you would go up with ladder. I dont know how that works with groceries, but it's nice so you can build more an more modern style building complex, if that's what you like.
Old photos of big cities showing them having to physically hoist a piano up to those walkups/fire escape entrances are crazy scary. Good thing our sims wont have that problem. :-)

We once did that for my sister's sofa, but at least it was only to the 2nd floor! There's a reason Victorian sofas weren't as big as a lot of modern ones, it turns out. Don't fit up the stairs.
LOL @ the friends gif
That was my bestie girlfriend and I when we were 18 years old and I was helping her move into her first apartment on the 3rd floor of a three-story walkup (cheaper rent). The two of us lugged everything up those dang tight-cornered back stairwells in her apartment building.... her hand-me-down granny couch weighed a ton because it had a foldout bed built inside of it. Needless to say, we treated ourselves to plenty of beer and pizza at the end of it all.
Good times.

They use cranes now
Living on the fourth floor with a not working elevator? Ever seen the big bang theory?
I hope it gets fixed for you at some point. In the mean time remember : walking stairs is good to stay fit.
