Hiring a Professional Safe Mover
For some people, a safe is a once-in-a-lifetime purchase, so most of us have no idea how to move a safe.
A safe could easily weigh 500 pounds or more. Because of its sheer size and bulk, it can be difficult and dangerous to move if you don't have any experience.
Having a professional safe-moving team deliver and install your safe is the easiest and safest option. It takes the hassle out of trying to find someone to help you and gathering all the equipment you'll need to get the job done. But most importantly, hiring a professional safe mover reduces the risk of injuring yourself or damaging your new safe, truck, or home. Safe movers are another wise protection investment.

Scheduling a Delivery or Move
We are ready, able, and wiling to assist you in scheduling your safe delivery or relocating an existing safe. But to receive an accurate price quote, you will need to provide as much information as you can about where the safe will go so we can understand how to move your safe. This includes:
Contact us to schedule a delivery.
- How many steps/stairs are involved and whether the safe needs to be moved up or down to travel over them
- Photos that show your property's approach, doors, the paths movers will need to take through your home/business, and the room where the safe is going
- The floor where the safe will be installed (basement, main floor, or second/third floor)
Contact us to schedule a delivery.
Where Should You Install Your Safe?
Before scheduling a delivery, you should already know where you want your safe to go. It is also a good idea to have an alternate location in case your first choice won't work once the movers arrive with your safe.
When choosing a location, you should base your decision on making it more difficult for a burglar to easily access your safe or remove it (using tools like pry bars or cutting torches to gain entry). If you install your safe in your garage or workshop, you should really consider bolting it down to the concrete floor to prevent a team of burglars from being able to cart it away.
Choosing to install your safe in a room on the upper level of your home and bolting it to the floor will make it more difficult for "smash and grab" burglars who are not equipped with safe-moving equipment.

Should You Move a Safe on Your Own?
Liberty Safe does not recommend moving your safe on your own, even if it is already in your home or business. This can be dangerous, especially if you don't have experience. We always recommend that you have a professional mover install your safe.
Before deciding to move and install your new Liberty gun safe on your own, consider the following dangers:

Before deciding to move and install your new Liberty gun safe on your own, consider the following dangers:
- Damage to your safe or home - Trying to move your safe through your home/business and up or down stairs without experience or specialized equipment could damage your safe or property.
- Damage to your truck - Most truck tailgates are not designed to hold a lot of weight. A safe can damage your tailgate, which would cost more to replace than hiring a professional mover.
- Risk of injuries that could be serious or fatal - With many safes weighing 500 pounds or more, you could suffer crushing injuries or hurt yourself enough to need medical treatment and time off work.
