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.

I moved a green house about a metre on concrete. I was able to lift it just
enough to slip some round metal under the bottom edge in about six places.
Then two of us, myself and a daughter, rolled it.

I used a crow bar to lift the bottom just enough to get the rollers in.

I used bits of metal I had around, a couple of old drill bits, some metal
bar, steel pipe etc. About 10 or 12 mm dia.

One bit of glass broke due to distorting the frame while lifting.

However, it was in effect empty- it doesnt have a fixed floor. It stands
on an oversized concrete slap.

While the idea would work on a Shed, lifting it ( especially with contents)
would take more than a crowbar.
