Claims
- 1. A method of transporting building type insulation from a work area through a small opening within a building to be insulated which comprises:
- laying a sheet of re-usable flexible material upon a surface said sheet having means for closing said flexible material along its linear edges and being of a width and length which is greater than the width and length of the insulation to be transported;
- laying a roll of insulation upon said sheet of flexible material and unrolling the insulation with its longitudinal axis parallel with the longitudinal axis of said sheet of flexible material and the ends of the insulation spaced inwardly from the ends of the sheet;
- rolling said sheet of flexible material and said insulation together along their longitudinal axis and securing said sheet of flexible material in its rolled condition, thereby enclosing said insulation within the confines of said sheet of flexible material;
- passing said rolled sheet of flexible material with said insulation therein through said small opening in said building to the area to be insulated;
- opening said rolled sheet of flexible material; and
- removing said insulation from said unrolled sheet of flexible material and reloading the removed unrolled sheet of re-usable flexible material with one or more unrolled lengths of insulation.
- 2. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said sheet of flexible material is closed along its longitudinal edges.
- 3. A method of transporting commercially rolled insulation from an outdoor work area into a building and through a small opening within said building, which comprises the steps of
- laying a re-usable flexible material having closure means along its linear edges, said material having a width and length greater than the width and length of the said insulation, to be transported, said material being of plastic or fabric;
- unrolling said rolled insulation longitudinally on said flexible material;
- rolling said sheet of flexible material and said insulation together along their longitudinal axis and securing said sheet of flexible material in its rolled condition, thereby enclosing said insulation within the confines of said sheet of flexible material;
- passing said rolled sheet of flexible material with said insulation therein through said small opening in said building to the area to be insulated;
- opening said rolled sheet of flexible material; and
- removing said insulation from said unrolled sheet of flexible material and reloading the removed unrolled sheet of re-usable flexible material with one or more unrolled lengths of insulation.
