The hoisting

I am pleased to report that the couches and dining tabletop all made it out, over and down the side of the apartment building. 

The building unfastened one side of the construction net to allow for better access and the moving company set up their pulley machine and ropes and away it all went. 

There's a lot of faith put in that little pulley machine!

The netting was unfastened.

One sofa was balanced on the edge of the balcony while they hooked on the tabletop. (The second sofa came down by itself.) 

And then the whole kit and caboodle came down the whole long side of the building. 

Safe and sound on the ground!
