Job ID: JAN2409152026 ( Residential Relocation ) - What This Move Involved
This residential move from South Calgary to Renfrew focused on the efficient and careful handling of a family home containing delicate heirlooms. Get Movers moving trucks, parked at the nearby South Calgary Community Association lot, were dispatched at 09:15 AM to ensure movers reached the residence precisely for the 09:30 AM start. Our movers began with a detailed walkthrough of the home to confirm the plan for the tall dining cabinet and verify the packing requirements for the fragile glassware.
The move progressed smoothly, navigating the tighter residential streets of South Calgary, heading north via 14th Street SW, crossing the Bow River, and transitioning onto Memorial Drive NE to reach Renfrew. All items were loaded using a balanced weight distribution method to ensure stability during the transit across the city. This level of local precision is why Get Movers remains a trusted name in Calgary. Everything arrived safely despite the bitter January cold, thanks to our winter-specific handling protocols.
Tight Hallway Navigation
The dining cabinet had very little turning space between the doorway and hallway curve. We utilized a slow lift-and-angle technique to clear the trim without contact.
Fragile Glass Protection
Hand-made dessert glasses with lightweight rims were individually wrapped in cushioned sleeves and packed upright in reinforced divider crates to prevent pressure damage.
Precise Placement
Upon arrival in Renfrew, the tall cabinet was carefully maneuvered through the new entryway and placed exactly where the clients requested, completing the move without a scratch.

Local Expertise: South Calgary Access & Renfrew Delivery
Relocating from South Calgary to Renfrew requires expert movers who understand Calgary's distinct inner-city geography. From the mature, tree-lined streets of South Calgary with their specific parking restrictions to the evolving residential grid of Renfrew near Edmonton Trail, our team navigates these routes with ease. This is exactly what the team at Get Movers has been doing for the last 12 years.
How we handled it
Once the initial walkthrough of the South Calgary residence was complete, our movers followed a structured, step-by-step process designed to manage the tight hallway curves and protect the client's fragile glassware.
Protection & packing
- Cabinet protection: The dining cabinet was fully wrapped and reinforced on all sides to protect surfaces during the intricate movement through the curved hallway.
- Individual glass cushioning: Each hand-made dessert glass was wrapped separately using cushioned protective sleeves to safeguard the delicate lightweight rims from pressure.
- Thermal Shock Protocol: Detected ambient temperature of -15°C. Activated thermal protection for wooden items using heavy-duty wool blankets inside the heated home before exiting to prevent varnish cracking.
Moving method
- Lift-and-angle technique: A slow, calculated lift-and-angle method was used to guide the tall cabinet through the hallway curve without touching the trim or walls.
- Upright crate packing: Glass items were packed upright inside reinforced divider crates to prevent shifting or contact during the drive to Renfrew.
- Sequenced loading: Items were loaded in an organized, balanced order to maintain stability during transport, prioritizing the safety of the fragile crates.

What Our Client Said About This Move
"On moving day in the Calgary area, the movers arrived right on time and got straight to work. They carefully took apart my complicated storage bed and properly prepped it for storage, along with all my other furniture. That alone impressed me, but they didn’t stop there. Because of a small shipping mix-up on my end, they even loaned me moving blankets so everything stayed protected. They also helped organize my furniture inside the storage unit so it was packed safely and made sense, which I really appreciated. Knowing they’ll be the ones helping me take everything back out later gives me peace of mind. The whole experience felt professional, organized, and careful. Most importantly, nothing was damaged or scratched this time, and that’s a huge win for me."
