The Task:
In May 2024, the Irish Heritage Trust enlisted William Tracey & Sons (WTS) to relocate antique furniture from a historic Dublin 1 building to Johnstown Castle in County Wexford.
The Dublin 1 building, dating back to 1753, was once the headquarters of the Dublin County Council.
The task included moving several large antique pieces, including a conference table that had to be fully dismantled for removal.
The Process:
Day 1
WTS crew arrived onsite, carefully dismantled the large conference table, and relocated all furniture from the first floor to the ground floor for loading preparation.
Day 2
WTS crew arrived with two trucks, wrapped the furniture, and began the loading process for transport to Wexford.
Day 3
Early morning at Johnstown Castle, the WTS crew unloaded the furniture. Most pieces were moved to the first floor, while some large, non-dismantlable pieces remained on the ground floor.
The Outcome:
All tasks were successfully completed in one day, both the client and building manager were delighted with how smoothly and efficiently the whole process went. Follow up comments from the clients were well received at WTS:
