Do you wear your bags bandelier style (worn over the shoulder and across the breast) or with the strap on the same shoulder as the side of your body where the bags hangs or rests?

Use a trolley.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Excellent!
All you need to do now is hook one bag on one side of the trolley and the other bag on the other side of the trolley.
