There are so many things that could go wrong in a moving job especially a heavy item. Great job!
So helpful and useful. Thank you guys a thousand times over
You should consider using the Escalera to lower the safe down each step rather than dropping down each of the steps. Just remove the big wheel attachment and bring the Escalera about 2-3 inches from the step edge and reverse the toggle to let it safely and slowly lower it down each of the steps. Using the ramps worked but seemed to add some danger that could have been eliminated by using the stair climber to lower the load. If you aren't used to going down stairs with the unit, watch the Escalera video from the company and practice with no load so you get comfortable doing it.
Thanks for posting! We've been waiting for a new video to pop on here using the Escalera. I think we've made up our mind now! Looks pretty solid and watching your techniques have helped. Now for ramps and the carpet/floor protectors!
@@RescueMovingServices I hope the Escelara company pay you guys for showcasing their trolley and getting them more customers!
I know this is an old post but we used to have an Escalera for moving wood burning stoves around the showroom and into customer homes but then we found out about the Powermate LE-1. Not only does it climb up and down stairs but it also acts like a forklift and can move the load up and down. Alittle more expensive than the Escalera but WELL WORTH IT!
You guys are incredible. Safes are damn hard to move. I need to move my safe in a couple days, at only 600 lbs.
Good job for getting it done. Wrong equipment to get it down. No one should under a safe. People been killed on a safe falling on them. Stay safe

Nice job. We just finished one 4k lbs safe and one 3k lbs and had to stack a 1500 lb one on top of a 3 ft safe . These are the bread and butter.
We had one of those those last week. The kid that was holding the dolly slipped and the safe fell on the ground. Luckily nobody got hurt. It took 4 of us to lift it back up.
@@RescueMovingServices Yeah, you have a point. He thinks he's stronger than us old guys. I've been doing this since 1986, I let you young guys do all the work nowadays. I've earned my respect. You guys are good.
Very professional loading of safe nice work
I would think it's a good idea to wrap the safe in cardboard or a moving blanket then some plastic wrap so you do scratch it with the dolly.
CrackedBrain ok boomer
@@dallas5374 Maybe one day you'll move out of your parents basement and get something of value. You can always dream huh...
@@shojus lol
I can't believe they didn't wrap it up before they started that's unprofessional in my opinion
Why no shipping blanket so as not to scratch the case
That is not the 900# version of the medallion. It’s slightly less than 500.
Good luck getting that safe upright again.
Yah, can't believe they brought a trailer and felt the need to lay it down. Couple other things I didn't agree with either. And yes I have experience.
It’s actually not that bad, but why though 🤦♂️
Two straps over the top with some padding and you’re good.
The Escalera is nice. We used to have one but then we replaced it with a Powermate LE-1 and there is no comparison. The Powermate will eat the Escalera for lunch. I own Cen-Tex Fireplace Solutions and use it for moving 400-800 pound wood stoves and inserts.
Thats good to hear, I just bought a used powermate le1 for $2450 including shipping and taxes! Getting here next week, I was close to getting the escalera with forklift
@@mjkpanda there is a learning curve with the powermate. The key is to keep the load centered over the wheels to keep it easy to control but once you move a few things it's like driving a stick shift. You don't even realize what buttons your hitting you just do it. We love ours
Surprised the safe is not wrapped in a moving blanket so it doesn't get scratched.
You know that truck lifts them down stairs too right?
Thats an amazing machine, though does it come with a safety (Kick Stand) on the operators end, because it seems as though it can use one especially during the time you first tilted your way. ...just observations bro, be safe out there.
surprised you didn't cover it before moving it.
They should’ve wrapped and pads first, and then strap to the handcart second of all you guys should’ve had Masonite down on the floor you never roll of 900 pound safe across the floor on floor runners. Lol.. The title of this video should be, “how not to move a 900 pound safe.. also also , You could always pull the front door off which takes a considerable amount of weight off and it also makes it safer to move.
How do I know this you ask?
I own a moving business. Good day to you guys.
They couldn't move my coffee table, let alone my safe.
@@62dobie You don't own anything worth keeping in a safe.
This post should be at the very top.
Curious what did you charge to move that safe?
Damn that’s how you move safes😦?
hello im very impressed where can I order same dolly please share the info I own a moving company
That's easier then using a appliance dolly
Overall good job.
Suggestion use more cardboard and rubber.
The cardboard as corner caps to make it easier to get your Dolly under the appliance as well as to protect it or maybe to protect walls as you are traveling from room to room.
Rubber (from rubber mats to rubber tires) could be used to cushion all landings especially when you decided to lay the safe down -- a long rubber mat on top of two rimless donut car tires would have been perfect under the safe on its side, in this way it's high off the platform but not too high to disturb the center of gravity but high enough to get your fingers under and to make it easier on your back when it's time that stand the safe up again.
Couple times I saw in your videos using the same piece of equipment the wobble while descending stairs and now in this case ascending stairs that's pretty scary.
amigo yo tenia un dolly de esos pero no tenia fuerza de casualidad le cambiastes la bateria de la bateria original
cuanto pagastes por tu dolly ( de ver tus videos me arrepiento de aver vendido el mio )
A BAHAHAHAHHA love the gold chain dance. 14k? 18k? 22k? 🤙🏽💵 great video
Take the door off and watch how easy it is....
There a few things they could have done better.
Many years moving safes, and not once have I taken a safe door off🤷♂️.
One time we had to put a door back on that an idiot took off, it was a pain in the ass and waste of my time. When you have the right equipment and know what you are doing it’s not that difficult. A 900 pounder is a light one 😑🤙
How much do you charge???
Where can buy that short ramp
The interesting part is at 3:55
Me and my brother move these all day long with the shoulder straps. Wish I had this dolly!!
How would you rate the shoulder strap for moving heavy objects like gun safes?
Not happening
where can we buy this kind of dolly? how much will be the price
Hand trucks 2 go
Under 5k loaded with all options
Those are not fun... Great job guys
I need a safe moved , how much you charge
CashFlow 101 you are an idiot ..
1 Take off the door 2 I do not think it is 900 pounds .
Door on it probably was close to 900, but that door by itself weights 300lbs I bet.
Never take the door off. Just call a safe moving company and pay. If they try to take the door off they are not a safe mover. That medallion has a 10GA body and weighs 895lbs.
I thought yall had the 12 x 20 nose plate
@@RescueMovingServices would you recommend using the escelera with the 12 x 20 or is that really just contradicting the use of the appliance dolly?
@@anjeljaquez155 i don't know if escalera dolly has the 12x20 nose attachment but the 12x20 is your best bet for any dolly. We only use the dolly for stairs when we move heavy gun safes and pianos.
I just ordered me a custom one I took your advice and added the 12 x 20 nose plate
@@RescueMovingServices Escalera sells the Big Toe Plate Attachment in 2 sizes, 12" deep x 28" across or 12" deep x 32" across. They just slide over the original when needed. The 32" might be too wide to get through some home's interior doorways so the 28" may be a better option. handtrucks2go.com/Extended-Toeplate-for-Escalera-hand-Truck.html
Always.. always... request owner to remove everything from inside prior to moving!!
Good that wasn't no 900 lb safe
You guys need to get a uniform each looks like you just come off the street 😂and you must be on an hourly rate so slow.
Yeats dolly all day
$350 paint job and no wrap. You’re fired.
350 lbs.
Very wrong.
The door alone probably weights 250-300lbs.
Slides the strap across the painted corners. I would never hire these people
Yep, those safes are shiny. A blanket and shrink wrap would have been nice.
Let’s start with the basics..... you guys are moving an almost thousand pound gun safe and not wearing steel toed shoes/boots... the only floor covering you have over a nice wood floor is that rubber rollout.....you didn’t protect the gloss paint finish of the safe from your machine OR your straps............ hacks ✌️
You have some valid points Josh but at least these guys are posting videos. Are you?
And even though I'm doing moving jobs for many years I'm certainly learning from them. Many times you also learn what not to do.. but I respect them for posting the videos and showing and sharing their craft, with me & everyone else.
I'm on the other side of the country but I'd hire them in an instant.
Have some respect before you criticize, it goes over much better and don't call hard-working honest guys hacks. They deserve better
Im interested to discover what kind of floor covering would you have used? Masonite maybe?
The Escalera has rubber strips on the face of the rails to protect the load and nylon seat belt straps and rubber wheels. I move my pinball machines and have never scratched one with it.
@@heybelsky When you pay more than $3,000 for something, you expect the people moving it to protect it. It should have been wrapped or protected with some kind of padding. That's a minumum standard of care.
@@heybelsky CNN also posts videos. Most are complete BS, but they still post them.
These guys are giving themselves way too much credit. THAT model safe weighs 380 pounds. Not even half of the claimed "900 pound safe". Think about it from this perspective. Do you really think dude is going to fingertip grip this safe with his foot at the bottom to tip it enough to slide the dolly plate under a "900 pound safe" ?
Not even close to a 900lb safe. A single guy won't be pulling one side so the other can slide a dolly under it. Complete bs
Hmm 895 pounds. Seems pretty close to a 900lb safe. Maybe try googling next time before posting nonsense. www.browning.com/products/gun-safes-and-pistol-vaults/custom-collection/medallion-safes/medallion-33.html
