What This Move Involved: Apartment Relocation from Mile-End to Hochelaga
This move involved relocating an apartment from Mile-End to Hochelaga, with immediate planning required for a tall wooden accent cabinet positioned tightly between a living-room doorway and a narrow interior hallway corner.
Because clearance was limited and trim damage was a concern, the cabinet was handled first before general packing began. Fragile fine glass dessert plates were individually wrapped, cushioned, and secured to ensure safe transport during the short Montreal relocation.
Tight Hallway Corner
Minimal clearance between doorway and hallway corner required controlled positioning to avoid wall and trim contact.
Tall Wooden Accent Cabinet
Fully wrapped and reinforced to protect edges while navigating the narrow hallway turn.
Fine Glass Dessert Plates
Individually wrapped and packed upright to prevent rim pressure and movement during transport.
