Bismihi ta'ala

In general, it would be allowed to move something that belongs to someone else, as long as there is no implied reason as to not touch someone else's property, or that one would be putting themselves in harm, or face a problem. Moving something that does not belong to you needs to be justified, and if something happens to it, you could be responsible for it.
