Delivering Safes

Moving safes is a very dangerous job, people have in fact lost their lives and limbs in the process... You should never try to move a safe on your own without the proper training and tools. There are so many factors that come in to play when your faced with the challenge of moving and installing a safe. Here are just a few things we at "Safe & Sound" look at when we have to move a safe:

  • How much does the safe weight: The weight of the safe is extremely important and determines how many men and what specific method will be used to move the safe.
  • The driveway: Is it paved, is there in incline or decline, can we back our trailer straight up to the entrance of the home.
  • The entrance we will go through: How wide is it, is there a threshold, is there a step.
  • The flooring inside the home: Is it carpet, tile, or wood? All these surfaces present there own different difficulities when moving a heavy object over them.
  • What floor the safe is going to: Moving a safe up stairs is a very dangerous and difficult job and requires extremely specilized tools and training to do so safely.
  • The final location: Is the safe up against a wall, in a corner, is the safe going to need to be bolted down, if so what kind of material is it being bolted into.
