Need a truck or vehicle with a power tailgate
Not sure what they have for stairs or doorways
That would be the interesting part

If they want it gone badly $500 is a fair price for all the hassel

I have been involved in moving one of those up a flight and a half of stairs and through 2 doorways. I still don’t know how it didn’t end up through the wall at the bottom of the stairs. Was puckering the whole time! There may be a mover in Edmonton or Calgary that have some special equipment for things like that. I don’t recommend moving it with 5 buddies, a few tow straps and a case of beer.

Put a similar one in my buddies basement.
Bobcat with pallet forks through the door, stairs straight ahead and a come along to slide it down the stairs.
Depending on the house maybe getting it out could be done in reverse.

Mine is 845#, but the door is removable for a big help.
Unfortunately we realized that after we started to unwrap the pallet once in the house

Check with CaberTosser; he has a family member (brother in law?) that does piano moving and will move gun safes.
He is based in Calgary

750 lb isn't really that much if you've got even halfways decent equipment. I have two, the lighter one is 503 lb. Take the door off and it's pretty straightforward to move it around the house by myself with just a dolly.

I have a stair climbing appliance dolly, it is rated for 1200 lbs . We have moved pop machines, cash safes, appliances, it makes the job easy. It would be the right tool to move a gun safe. It is battery powered, it will climb or descend with a load.

Two summers ago at work we had to replace a 440lb electric motor . We had a
Company come in and they moved it with a stair climbing robot.
