A system and apparatus for moving objects is disclosed. The system includes a carriage for lifting and/or moving a load on one or more lines comprising at least two sheaves (30, 40) that are in, an operative configuration, disposed for rotation about a respective axis between front and rear plates (10, 12). The carriage has an open configuration in which at least one sheave is spaced from at least one of the front or rear plates. Transition between the open configuration and the operative configuration is achieved by mutual rotation of the front and rear plates (10, 12) about a rotation axis perpendicular to the plates that is coincident with the axis of rotation of one of the sheaves (30). In the apparatus, the carriage is carried, in the operative configuration, on a main line (60), whereby the carriage can travel on the main line supported by one or more sheave (30, 40).
