Protective floor runners used during a residential move in Calgary.

The challenges

Narrow interior offset

The hallway chest had to be guided past a tight interior offset with very limited clearance, requiring precise movement to avoid wall contact.

Fragile crystal glassware

The dessert glasses featured thin, etched stems that needed individual protection to prevent pressure or breakage during transport.

Protected exit pathway

Maintaining a clean and damage-free exit route required full floor protection from the hallway to the truck.

How we handled it

To manage the tight offset and delicate items safely, our crew followed a controlled, step-by-step approach suited to the home’s layout.

Protection & packing

Full chest wrapping The hallway chest was fully wrapped and fitted with reinforced corner guards before movement began.
Individual glass cushioning Each crystal dessert glass was wrapped in cushioned sleeves to protect the etched stems.
Secure crate placement Glassware was arranged upright inside reinforced divider crates for maximum stability.

Moving Method

Controlled lift-and-angle maneuver A lift-and-angle technique was used to guide the chest past the narrow offset without touching the walls.
Protected carry route Protective runners were installed along the entire exit pathway to safeguard floors and surfaces.
Steady loading process Items were handled calmly and deliberately from the home to the truck to maintain control throughout the move.
