Trailer to move gun safe

[BTLowry]

Somebody tell me what you call those trailers that the deck drops to the ground and used for moving gun safes

I need to rent one and I have googled every thing I can think they would be called with no luck

[CabezaBlanca]

I just went through the same thing. I finally just paid to have it moved.

Why wouldnt any old trailer work with a plywood ramp?

[BBReezen]

Like ones used for hauling scissor lifts?

Safe weighs 1500#, don't trust plywood at that weight and I would have to buy a piece of plywood

Just didn't think to write number down

I moved my 500lb safe in the back of my pickup. Put a pad down and tilted it into bed. place it on a four wheel dolly and rolled it into house. Only took two men.

1500#.....well i guess that explains it

Sound like you got a big un!

Maybe find an AMSEC or Gruffander dealer in your area. They are used to moving these.

I paid 300.00 to move a 2100# HD. Well worth it IMO. Cheaper than back surgery.

Hydraulic drop deck trailer

Looked up scissor lift trailer and this came up and seems to be the label for them

[BBReezen]

Call over to contractor building supply over on east loop. They might have one you can rent. I don't think I've ever seen one at Pro Star down here on 155 but might give them a shout too

Of course there's United Rentals over on the east loop too but they're always a PITA for us to rent from not to mention they're higher than giraffe you know what and we try not to use them if we don't have to

However you move it, keep it upright. Don't lie it down.

Pay the $250 to move it.......trust me.

My buddy borrowed my 10' trailer to pick up a safe he bought. He said, "I ain't paying nobody $200 to do something I can easily do." He Jack knifed the trailer into the rear quarter panel of his wife's suv, broke my tail light on the trailer, bent the metal thesh-hold at the front door with the weight on the dolly tires, cracked a ceramic tile and fubarred his back.......all while I helped and reminded him of the $200 fee.

I have had a couple people tell me that

What is the reason?

Cause problems with locking mechanism?
