Lift your store onto it at one end and lift and drag the other end if it's not too heavy.

Looking at the structure most of it appears interlocking. unless you can underpin the lowest beams in places to lift it high enough to get a complete length then centralise it on a wide pallet truck. Another way would be to put the 2 lateral beams with 2 stiff beams front to back and cut up a scaffold pole into say 1 metre lengths place 2 under each beam then as you roll it put another bit of scaffold in front and pull the contraption onto this roller bring the back roller to the front and start again. It worked for the Egyptians so I copied it to move my garden shed 4x2 metre's onto a concrete slab.

it looks as if it would drag easy enough if it was on some wooden sleds. Thick plywood sled shapes screwed to each leg pair and drag it or lever it away...

Putlocks (short scaffold tubes) make great rollers.
