Working in an old building in central Liège means intense physical challenges. When the owners entrusted us with a fifth-floor flat with no lift, the survey immediately set an extraordinary carrying effort.
With no outside hoist and narrow stairwells, only an athlete's strategy works.
The real challenge: vertical handling and stamina
- Hand-carrying: heavy sofas, mattresses and sideboards down step by step over five floors without damaging common areas.
- Tight common areas: cramped halls and turns limiting angles for bulky items.
- Cumulative fatigue: perfect physical rotation between operators for a constant, secured pace.
⚠️ Five floors never forgive improvisation
Without maximum dismantling and carrier rotation, fatigue breaks pace — then furniture and walls. Rotation is part of the quote.
Our approach on site
- Intensive dismantling: every piece cut down from its room of origin to lighten individual loads.
- Paced relay chain: smooth rotation between floors and the van below to optimise flows.
- Common-area clean: careful sweeping and checking of the stairwell after passage.
💡 Extreme floors: the Anderlecht method
Landing relay and dismantling: see our 4th floor with no lift.
The result
The flat was fully emptied and cleaned on time, proving rigorous organisation overcomes the highest floors.
