    Hope you get it all worked out. Safes are no joke.
    I see a Axis hide or some leather hanging over the dented corner in the near future. To not have a constant reminder of the safe falling. Good luck with the Bobcat and the safe.

      Mine weighs 1350# empty

      Money I paid to have it delivered was well spent

      OP, glad you didn't get hurt

      They used 1x6 with neoprene on the bottom to protect floor and a strip of Teflon for a runner on top. Used about 8 of these to "lay down tracks" and it moved very easy with 2 guys
      Drop deck trailer like the rental place uses to haul scissor lift for getting it here

          Can't help with getting it over door jambs and such, but furniture sliders under each corner and you can drive it like a grocery cart. That's how I moved my last one. My son and I unloaded it off a ramped trailer on a kids red wagon by laying it down. I didn't know at the time that you aren't supposed to do that. Once we got it upright again, the furniture sliders took it to my "gun room". No problems with the lock after laying it down, but I probably wouldn't do it again.

            Hope it didn't have the glass rods in the doors.

              Nah, it seems fine. It's not a high dollar safe, technically, defined as residential security container, giant safe for $1150.

                mine weighs 1100# empty and pay 250 for them to pickup and drop off in place. Money well spent. Glad nobody was hurt, stay safe getting in the position and bolting it down.

                  Same here. It was well worth the 200.00. I have two 80 gun safes and could never imagine moving them myself.

                    I unloaded this refrigerator from my trailer (with a ramp) and put into place with 3/4" PVC pipe and it wasn't too bad. Although it is big, I think that gun safe weighs more than my refrigerator.

                      Those that are looking at hiring movers please do your homework on them and th company.Gentelman here in Georgetown hired some folks that came back later and tied him up and robbed him. There was more to the story i believ but it started with the movers moving his safe. Op praise God y’all were not under it, good luck on the rest of the move.

                        We got her in. A bit scarred up but everything works. Should have borrowed the bobcat from the start.

                              Figured I'd repaint it with bedliner paint, then put stickers on it.
