Job ID: JAN2208302026 ( Residential Relocation ) - What This Move Involved
Get Movers Winnipeg MB establishes itself as a reliable moving company in the region by executing precise logistics for this two-bedroom home relocation. This residential move from West Alexander to Elmwood focused on efficient handling during typical January conditions. Moving trucks parked near a commercial lot off McPhillips St were dispatched at 08:15 AM to ensure movers reached the West Alexander residence on Alexander Ave on time for the 08:30 AM start.
The move progressed smoothly, navigating the urban grid of West Alexander, utilizing the Disraeli Freeway to cross the Red River, and entering the Elmwood community via Talbot Ave. All items were loaded in a logical order to prioritize efficient unloading, ensuring a clean and stress-free delivery at the new Elmwood home. Despite the ambient temperature of -22°C, we activated our 'Thermal Shock Protocol,' using heavy-duty wool blankets inside the heated home before exiting to prevent antique varnish from cracking due to rapid thermal contraction.
Efficient Hallway Navigation
A tall wooden dresser located at a tight mid-hallway turn in West Alexander required a strategic slow lift-and-pivot method to ensure the trim and walls remained untouched during removal.
Delicate Crystal Protection
The client's crystal dessert bowls with thin etched rims were individually wrapped in cushioned sleeves and packed upright in reinforced divider crates to guarantee stability during the drive to Elmwood.
Winter Floor Safety
Floor-safe runners were deployed immediately upon entry to protect the client's flooring from Winnipeg's winter slush and salt, keeping the exit route clean from start to finish.

Moving method
- Pivot & Lift: A slow lift-and-pivot method was used to navigate the tall dresser through the tight mid-hallway turn without brushing walls or disturbing trim.
- Clear communication: Communication remained consistent from start to finish, keeping the client informed and ensuring the move remained structured and organized.
