I have a 740 pound safe that is going to get moved in a couple months (graduating from college and off to dental school).
The last time the safe was moved it was done by some professional movers for $250. They also moved all my household goods across town negating the need for me to rent a truck/move furniture. Anyway, I carefully watched how these three hired guys moved it and I don't see any reason why I couldn't rent/buy a heavy duty handcart like the movers used, get a couple of buddies and move it myself.
The safe will move across about 30ft of carpet floor, out a door, down three steps and then up a ramp into a 8x10ft trailer.
Is this possible? Is there any reason I shouldn't do it myself?
Suggestions and comments appreciated.
