What we need before quoting

Make and model, or the dimensions and weight. Look it up rather than estimating; people routinely underestimate a safe by several hundred pounds and that changes the crew and equipment entirely.

Whether it is anchored, and into concrete or timber.

The route at both ends, with photographs of any staircase from top and bottom, the turn if there is one, and the doorway at each end.

Whether the destination floor is a slab.

Weight is the main driver, then stairs, then access. A safe quoted without that information is a guess.

The one condition

tt travels empty. Contents add weight that shifts as the safe is tilted, which is exactly what happens on a dolly and a staircase, and that is dangerous at the least recoverable moment.

We do not transport firearms or ammunition. Those are the owner's responsibility to move, in accordance with the applicable law, which differs by jurisdiction and is not something a moving company should advise on.

Documents, cash and jewellery should travel with you as well.

Before the day

Empty it completely, including the bottom, which is where things get left. Confirm the combination works, since a safe that cannot be opened at the far end is a locksmith call. tf the lock is electronic, check the battery.

Tell us if it is anchored so bolts can be released and the old floor made good.

When we will decline

Where the weight and a staircase are not compatible, where a flight is structurally questionable, or where a safe cannot be kept under control through a turn.

A safe that gets away on stairs destroys the stairs, the wall, whatever is at the bottom and potentially somebody's leg, and it cannot be stopped once it starts. Where we decline, we will say what would make it possible, which is sometimes a rigging specialist.

Placement at the new house

A concrete slab handles both the weight and a proper anchor. Over joists, position against a load-bearing wall rather than mid-span, and ask somebody qualified if the safe is heavy.

tnside the conditioned part of the house is better than a garage here, where summer heat and daily swings are hard on contents.
