The top of the shelves scrape against that low-hanging ceiling, sending puffs of dust and crumbling plaster down over them, at the start - but most of it's already broken away, making for easier going. The doorway also turns out to be a little easier navigated than it initially seems, after a minute or so of angling the shelves through and getting caught up short.

Fortunately, the gas station floor is intact in enough patches around that enormous tree's roots to make their way around to the hanging husk holding her keys somewhat smooth going. ]
