Catullus 10 has the poet complain that when he travelled with the praetor of Bithynia, he didn't have a single servant who could settle the broken leg of an old camp-bed on his shoulder (fractum qui veteris pedem grabati/in collo sibi collocare posset). Casson's Travel in the Ancient World might be a good resource.

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.
