Gun safes can be a huge liability to move in the hands of the wrong movers. Their hefty, considerable size makes them near impossible to move without specialized equipment or trained gun safe movers.

What’s the Best Way to Move a Safe?

Speaking of, what exactly qualifies as the best way to move a safe? Not only do safes require specialized equipment, but they also require specialized care and attention from the movers. Some gun safes come in at over 1,000 lbs so safety is crucial no matter how near or far you are transporting the safe.

Plan Ahead

This will be the most important step when moving a gun safe. Take the measurements of the safe and use them to map out your exact route. Plan for where everyone is going to be in tight corners, stairways, narrow doorways, and other challenging spots. Planning is key.

Protect Surroundings

Secure moving blankets around the gun safe, especially its sharp corners, to help protect against scratching the wall. Placing floor runners on the ground can help from ruining flooring as well.

Don’t Do It Alone
