Moving heavy furniture in the home office - practical experience needed...

Back when I started my business, I converted the dining room to a small office. 20+ years ago, I got a killer deal on a solid oak desk with credenza. These suckers are heavy. The furniture sits on felt pads - the stick on kind, but they are so old, they are end of life.

I plan on keeping the setup for a few more years, but I really need to be able to move the desk or credenza without destroying my LVP flooring. When I say moving, I mean sliding the desk away from the wall for cleaning or fixing cables, etc.

The felt solution does not slide as well as it should. I'm thinking the vinyl sliders under the desk, but I'm wondering if the group has some practical ideas that work.

Appreciate any suggestions.
