Drive to the other side of town and pick up 4 "migrant" workers. Blindfold them. Bring them to your house (do not remove blindfolds until they are in the house) and have them move the safe. Replace blindfolds and return them where you found them. Should cost you less than $50.00. :thumbs2:

Go to Bass Pro, and there's a business card for the guy they use who delivers safes.

edit: just looked him up...

Jeff Kiser is his name.
281.734.7385
safemoves@sbcglobal.net

He delivered mine and is a very nice guy to work with.

I am looking at getting a safe from Carters Country at Pasadena and they have a guy who does it there. A friend of mine got one and he was very happy with the person who did the delivery and installation for him.
