I find it can bind up a bit on the RHS (brake side) due to some dirt and grit around the spacers on that side. Only ever an issue if its been coated in mud and left to sit for weeks on end. Even then it doesnt seize in, just needs a tap to start it coming out. When clean and lubed its an easy slide in and out one hand job. Got some good suggestions here. I'd try things like feeding the axle through the hub off the bike. It should slide easy. If it does then try and start identifying the part which causes the issues, before investigating why.
