You will need to bring like, big backpacks depending what size your things are. I could assure you bring a tent, Water lots of bags but you will need lots of people to carry the other bags. There are other choices like bring luggage.
You will need a tent to sleep in. You climb Mount Everest in stages and each night you sleep in a tent then in the morning you carry on until you reach the next camp site.
The weight of your personal rucksack that you would carry up to camps on Mount Everest are around 12 – 15kg. The heavier items needed up the mountain are carried by Sherpas for you.

The Holts carry them up.
I think you mean Sherpas instead of Shepards. Sherpas moved closer to Mount Everest to get work. Every climbing season hundreds of Sherpas are paid to carry loads on Mount Everest or fix routes etc. They can earn more in 1 month on Mount Everest than what they get by farming the rest of the year.
Over the years probably thousands. They carry gear up to Camp 1 on the North side of Mount Everest.
All the rubbish found on Mount Everest has been left by climbers who are too tired to carry it down the mountain. Today there are dedicated teams whos role is to bring the rubbish down off the mountain.
Today they use satalites to measure the height of Mount Everest. When the mountain was first measured by Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India in 1847 they used a very large Theodolites weighing up tp 1100lbs and needing 12 men to carry them.
The type of work available on Mount Everest would be: Porter - carry equipment to higher camps Sherpas - Making the route safe Cook - Providing climbers with hot meals Guides - To guide a climber to the summit and back down
It is harder to breathe on the summit of Mount Everest than at sea level due to the lack of oxygen. The higher you climb upwards the less oxygen there is, you enter the death zone where the thin air is.

Rescue teams on Mount Everest use manpower. If you are very high up then there is a high chance you will not get rescued, this is because it is hard enough to survive in the thin air without having to struggle carry/moving someone else down the mountain.
