Wait a moment, "schlepped" is an english word and it means the same like carrying? Because it's from german word "schleppen".
My guess would be that the word made it into the English vocabulary via Yiddish.
It exists with different spellings in all the Scandinavian languages as well, borrowed from old Saxon.
In English, it's usually used in a context where there's some humor, frustration, or irony involved, like in the comic.
Okay that sounds familiar. Germans use it the same way. Carry means "tragen" and nobody would use "schleppen" in a serious sentence.
"I carried my equipment out to the car"
Vs
"I schlepped all my brothers' crap out to the car again"
