The challenges

Tight clearance beside a brick wall
The display shelf needed to pass closely by a brick feature wall without leaving marks or surface damage.
Fragile glass dessert cups
Each cup featured a thin rim that required individual cushioning and upright packing.
Downtown access coordination
Moving through downtown Montreal required careful staging and a clean, organized loading process.

How we handled it

Protection & packing

  • Shelf preparation and wrapping Loose interior boards were removed, and the entire shelf frame was wrapped securely to protect all surfaces.

  • Secure crate packing Fragile cups were placed upright inside reinforced divider crates to maintain stability during transport.

Moving Method

  • Slow pivot technique A precise pivot maneuver was used to guide the shelf safely past the brick wall without contact.
