    Recommendations on a Safe Movers

    I finally bought a safe (a small Mesa because I have a tiny house so I couldn't go with a big one.) So it's only 400-500 lbs.

    It's being delivered early next week but they won't bring it into my house.

    I'm in the Commerce area. Any recommendations on movers anyone has used and have had good experiences?

    Thanks!

    They helped us out and did great, professional work. Awesome guys, I will use them again in the future. Oh, and the prices are ridiculously low.

    I have one that weighs about the same. Me, my wife, and one other have moved it several times. We will actually have to move it again in a couple weeks into our new home.

    Get a couple come alongs and strap that puppy to a decent dolly, you will be surprised how easily it is to move around.

    This is assuming you dont have to go up or down a flight of stairs.

    Be careful when using a refrigerator dolly to move a heavy safe. I moved a very small, 500 lb safe using one, and when I rolled it across a small portion of carpet, its crushed, and separated the padding underneath the carpet, and I had to replace it, as it left a 4' long groves appearing in the carpet surface. Same for tile, and hardwood floors. Use a dolly with wider pneumatic tires, and lay down plywood, or equivalent, so you don't crack it.

    Oh no, does that mean it will crack my floor it sits on? I'm putting out in a corner of a bedroom
