I live in an old two-story home. I found myself going up and down stairs all day with stuff. So I bought a tiny laundry basket-type container and keep it at the bottom of the staircase. Then I add what needs to go upstairs during the day, such as toothpaste, SCOTT Tissue, shampoo and anything small from my shoppong trips. I pick it up on my way to bed. I keep it at the top of the stairs at night to return anything that should go downstairs. Now instead of going up and down stairs all day, I only go up once at night and down once in the morning. If you have children, of course, put the little basket up on a counter and not ON the steps where they could trip.
