What This Move Involved: Apartment Relocation from Russell Lake West to Sherwood Heights
This move involved relocating an apartment from Russell Lake West to Sherwood Heights, with immediate planning required for a tall wooden ladder-shelf positioned tightly between the living-room sofa and a protruding wall section.
The home also included thin glass dessert bowls displayed on a corner stand. Due to their delicate rims, each bowl required individual packing and upright stabilization for the short Halifax relocation.
Tight Living-Room Clearance
The ladder-shelf was wedged between furniture and a jutting wall section, requiring it to be handled first before general packing.
Tall Wooden Ladder-Shelf
The shelf was partially disassembled, wrapped, and guided out using a slow side-pivot technique to prevent shifting.
Fragile Glass Dessert Bowls
Each bowl was individually wrapped and secured upright inside reinforced divider crates for transport.

How we handled it
Once access planning was complete, our movers followed a controlled, step-by-step process designed to protect both the apartment and every item during the relocation.
Protection & packing
- Ladder-shelf disassembly & wrapping: Removable boards were carefully taken off, and the open-frame structure was fully wrapped to prevent flexing and surface contact.
- Individual glass protection: Each thin glass dessert bowl was wrapped separately using cushioned sleeves to protect delicate rims.
- Upright divider crating: Bowls were secured upright inside reinforced divider crates to prevent movement during transport.
Moving method
- Side-pivot clearance technique: A slow, controlled side-pivot was used to guide the ladder-shelf out without touching walls or nearby furniture.
- Protected carry-out path: Floor protection was placed along the exit route to keep surfaces clean and damage-free.
- Balanced truck loading: Items were loaded in a stable sequence to prevent shifting during the short Halifax drive.
