We might be wanting to move a 2m x 2m garden shed, by about 1m and maybe
rotating it 90 degrees. It has plywood on the floor and appears to be
resting on paving slabs, not bolted down.

Beyond emptying it of stuff and getting N people to pick it up, any
suggestions for moving it easily? Perhaps sliding or rolling?

What immediately springs to mind are those giant crawler units used for
taking the Space Shuttle to the launch pad... maybe not.

go for the 4 people - one on each corner

Maybe lift the front of the shed and slide a wooden plan or fence post
under it - the plank being wider than the shed. Repeat at the back of
the shed

The 4 people have then got something more easy to lift and you support
the bottom of the shed better

OR 2 people
Still 2 planks but closer together and

maybe rope rather than slings and maybe tried on at the bottom.
Maybe a 3rd person just to steady the shed when moving but not actually
lifting.
