Moving a Gun Safe Isn't Like Moving Furniture
At Moving Company Guys, we are THE gun safe movers in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Whether you have a 500-pound handgun safe, a 2,000-pound Liberty vault, or anything in between, our dedicated gun safe moving team has the expertise, equipment, and insurance coverage to move your safe safely and efficiently.
Most gun safes weigh between 500–2,000 pounds when empty. A typical 24-gun safe weighs 600–800 lbs. Large 64-gun safes can exceed 1,500 lbs. Add ammunition, firearms, and accessories — and you're dealing with weights that cause serious injury when handled wrong.
We've moved thousands of gun safes across Dallas County, Tarrant County, Collin County, Denton County, and Rockwall County. OSHA reports that over 21,000 Americans are injured annually attempting DIY heavy item moves. Don't be one of them.

Not Just "Regular" Movers — We're Gun Safe Specialists
Unlike general moving companies that treat gun safes as an afterthought, gun safe moving is a core specialty at Moving Company Guys. We've invested over $20,000 in specialized hydraulic equipment specifically designed for safes weighing up to 5,000 pounds.
Led by Mark Driver, our gun safe crew is based at our Dallas office at 3333 Lee Pkwy, Suite 600, Dallas TX 75219 and our Garland office at 2913 Big Oaks Drive, Garland TX 75043.
Every crew member receives hands-on training in safe maneuvering, weight-distribution, and damage-avoidance — because one wrong move on a 1,200-pound Fort Knox safe can cost thousands in floor and wall repairs.
- Hydraulic jacks rated to 5,000 lbs — not household dollies
- Floor runners, door padding, wall protection on every move
- Specialized insurance covering your safe, your property, and our team
- Written estimate before work begins — no surprise fees
- USDOT #3918729 · TxDMV #009567347C — fully licensed

Pre-Move Planning

Safe is secured in our truck with professional straps and bracing. We transport to your destination and unload using the same careful procedures.
Placement & Leveling
We position your safe exactly where you specify, level it for proper door operation, and bolt it down to concrete if requested.

Gun Safe Moving Tips — What You Need to Know
Read this before your moving day. Proper preparation makes the move faster, safer, and less expensive.
Empty Your Safe Completely
Remove ALL firearms, ammunition, and valuables before moving day. This is non-negotiable for three reasons:
Safety: Movement and jostling can damage firing mechanisms or cause accidental discharge. Weight: Adding 200 lbs of guns and ammo to an 800-lb safe makes it significantly more dangerous. Liability: Firearms must be transported separately in compliance with ATF transport regulations.
Measure Everything
Safe dimensions: Height (including feet), width (including handle), depth (including hinges). Check the manufacturer's spec sheet or the label inside the door for exact weight.
Every doorway the safe must pass through — interior and exterior. Width and height. Note thresholds and door stops.
Hallway width at the narrowest point. Confirm everything is ground level — we do not move safes on stairs.
Clear the Path & Be Present
Remove all furniture, decor, and obstacles along the full moving path at both pickup and delivery locations. Take down pictures on walls along the route. Remove area rugs — we use our own floor protection.
Be available to answer questions but let professionals work. Keep children and pets in a separate area. Take photos of pre-existing floor or wall imperfections before we start.
Inspect, Acclimate & Reload
Inspect the safe exterior immediately. Test door operation and the locking mechanism. Verify the safe is level (improper leveling affects door operation).
If moving from a climate-controlled home to a garage, allow the safe to acclimate for 24 hours before reloading. When reloading, place heavier items lower in the safe to maintain balance. Consider installing a GoldenRod dehumidifier to protect your firearms from Texas humidity.
