Fragile dessert glasses packed carefully by a Calgary moving company.

The challenges

Tight hallway curve
The dining cabinet was placed between a doorway and a narrow hallway bend, leaving very little room to turn the piece without contacting trim or surrounding surfaces.
Fragile hand-made glassware
Each dessert glass featured a lightweight rim that required individual cushioning to prevent chipping or pressure damage during transport.
Careful staging and loading
Proper organisation was needed to stage items, maintain balance during loading, and keep everything stable throughout the move.

How we handled it

To safely manage the tight hallway curve and delicate glassware, our Calgary movers followed a controlled, step-by-step approach tailored to the home’s layout.

Protection & Packing

  • Full cabinet wrapping The dining cabinet was completely wrapped and reinforced on all sides to protect surfaces during movement through the hallway.
  • Individual glass cushioning Each dessert glass was wrapped separately using cushioned protective sleeves to prevent movement and rim damage.
  • Secure crate packing Fragile glassware was placed upright inside reinforced divider crates to maintain stability throughout the move.

Moving Method

  • Lift-and-angle technique A slow lift-and-angle method was used to guide the cabinet carefully through the hallway curve without touching the trim.
  • Balanced loading sequence Items were loaded in an organised, balanced order to prevent shifting during the drive to Renfrew.
  • Controlled unloading and placement At the new home, the cabinet was positioned exactly as requested, followed by calm, steady unpacking of each glass.
