A bucket of tennis balls. I've seen it done. Get as many as you can under the safe and continue to put them under the front of the safe as you move it forward. It just glides along.
I am in need of someone to unload a gun safe from a moving truck and move it inside our new place at the end of June.
Any recommendations?
Tractor Supply hires an outside contractor to move their safes when they sell one. They moved a big one into my son's house Perhaps you can get their contact info from TS.
One other thing, buy a couple of sheets of plywood or OSB to lay down on the floor. It will help when you roll it across carpet. And it will also help avoid the dolly wheels (or golf balls if you use them) cracking your tile or hardwood.
Holy heck at 1700. I just moved a pair of 375lb and a 550lb "small" safes. Not too bad to just push them over into a trailer and tip them back out.
It did cost me a cheap wood harbor freight furniture dolly and one of there expensive plastic with metal reinforcements. The plastic one with metal would have worked great but my wife had it clocked 90 degrees out. When I dropped the safe on it it folded in half. The metal only helps if you use it.
