Specialty & High-Value Item Movers
Gun Safe & Safe Movers in Jacksonville, FL
Gun safes and heavy safes — often several hundred pounds or more — moved with the right equipment, not brute force.
A loaded gun safe can weigh anywhere from a few hundred pounds to well over a thousand, and it's usually sitting in the worst possible spot for moving it out — a closet, a basement corner, or up a flight of stairs. We use safe-rated dollies and stair-climbing equipment built for this exact weight range, rather than trying to walk it out on furniture sliders.
Equipment matters more than muscle here
A safe this heavy needs a rated hand truck or stair climber, not a furniture dolly. We assess the weight, the path out (stairs, doorway widths, turns), and bring the right setup rather than guessing on-site.
Stairs and tight access
Tell us about stairs or narrow hallways when you book — this is the single biggest factor in how a gun safe move gets planned and how many people it takes.
Other heavy safes
The same approach applies to non-gun safes — floor safes, home/office security safes, and similar heavy units.
Gun Safe & Safe Movers FAQ
How heavy of a safe can you move?+
We handle safes ranging from a few hundred pounds up to well over a thousand, using rated equipment sized to the weight. Let us know your safe's approximate weight when you book.
Can you get a heavy safe down or up stairs?+
Yes, with the right stair-climbing equipment and crew size — this is exactly the kind of detail to flag when booking so we come prepared.
Do I need to empty the safe before you move it?+
We generally recommend it, both for weight and for your peace of mind with the contents, though it's not always required depending on the situation — ask us when you book.
Is this priced differently than a normal single-item move?+
Yes — the specialized equipment and extra crew a safe move often needs are factored in. We'll give you a real number based on the safe's weight and your home's access.
Do you bring your own moving equipment, like dollies?+
Yes — every crew brings furniture dollies, hand trucks, and moving straps as standard equipment. You don't need to provide or rent anything.
Do you provide floor runners or floor protection in the house?+
Yes — floor runners and protective coverings are standard on every move, especially for hardwood, tile, and carpeted stairs. It's not an upcharge or something you need to request separately.
Do you protect the furniture with moving pads?+
Yes — furniture is wrapped in moving pads and blankets before it's loaded, to protect it from scuffs and damage in transit. This is standard on every move.
Do you wrap furniture in plastic or shrink wrap too?+
For upholstered furniture, mattresses, and anything that benefits from an extra layer — especially in Florida's humidity — yes, shrink wrap over the moving pads is common practice.
Will you protect doorways, corners, and railings during the move?+
Yes — door jamb protection and corner guards are part of our standard setup, especially in tighter hallways, stairwells, and apartment or condo buildings.
Do you strap items down in the truck so nothing shifts in transit?+
Yes — everything is strapped and secured in the truck before we drive, so nothing shifts, tips, or slides during transport.
