Manny Sahmbi Happy2Move assisted a boutique antique shop in Kensington with its relocation to a self-storage facility in Swiss Cottage. The move required expert handling of rare and fragile items, including valuable display cabinets. This project demanded precision and care to ensure the safety of the shop’s cherished inventory.
The Challenge
This move presented unique challenges due to the nature of the items involved:
- Fragile and Rare Items: The shop’s inventory consisted of numerous fragile and valuable antiques that required careful packing and transportation.
- Display Cabinets and Shelving: The dismantling and reassembly of shelving units and display cabinets added complexity to the project.
- Attention to Detail: Every step of the process, from packing to unpacking, required a meticulous approach to safeguard the antiques.
Our Solution
