Recommendation on safe movers in Knoxville

[East_TN_Patriot]

I have a Liberty safe I need moved to another room of my house. Can anyone recommend a decent mover in the Knoxville area that has done that sort of thing?

Jesus Magallanes has moved mine a couple of times 865-384-3934

Knoxville Safe House moved all mine the last time mainly because I bought a new safe from them and they picked up my others from storage. 

Very pleased with both. They both have lift trailers and watched my floors, walls and trim carefully. I would definitely use one of them.

I sent them a couple of messages through their website and never got a response.

After getting a couple estimates, either I figure out how to move it myself or it stays put. Cost to move is almost half what I paid for the thing brand new!

Have you tried calling the people you purchased the safe from originally to see what they would charge to come out and move it. They might give you a better price since you bought it from the originally.  Just a thought!!

Yeah its not  cheap by any means. If you can roll it to the other room, get a couple of buddies, tilt it and put a 4 caster moving dolly under it. I reread your initial post and didn't catch you were just going to another room. If there are thresholds they layed a piece of aluminum over the thresholds to roll across.

 I moved mine by myself using those "Super Sliders".  It's a little tough getting them under and out-from-under, but it can be done.

I've done this also. Works very well on hardwood floors.

Here's a video by Aaron Parker that may give you some tips for moving you safe.

Does Aaron Parker actually show how to move a safe?  It’s still in the same place.

Not in  this video but I had him bring a safe into my house and he used those wooden pieces to slide the safe into a back bedroom. He and his son would push it so far along and then place more wooden pieces along the path. It was kinda like making a train track to guide the safe to its destination. They got it where I wanted it to go and once it reached its final destination, they placed it on the floor and leveled it to make sure the door wouldn't bind when it was opened. The PVC pipe trick shown earlier should provide the same results also.
