Fit Notes
- The tight end of the ellipse is the bottleneck.
- A wider outside arc helps only if movers can stay on that path.
- Measure both width and headroom at the narrowest bend.
What Fits?
3-seat couch
Often works if carried upright and the landing has enough pivot space.
Queen mattress
Usually clears on edge because thickness is the limiting dimension.
Console table
Works if the long side can follow the wider arc.
Upright piano
Weight, balance, and landing turns usually require professional movers or another route.
