Moving a safe question

[Forever_frost]

My 64 gun gun safe just arrived and I spent the last hour dragging it the 50 feet up the drive under the eve of the roof so that it doesn't get wet should it rain. It's bolted to a pallet and weighs around 800 pounds. To get it to the door where it needs to go, I have to move it over soft grass and up a ramp onto my deck to go through my french doors.

Question. Is there an easier way to do this than wrap it with tow straps and me pull it like a mull, an inch at a time?

You can roll it on some pipe as well

I have a dolly I tried to use but I couldn't budge it and me standing on the dolly and bouncing up and down on it didn't move it. I inched it up the drive by making a harness out of the ratchet strap and dragging it but I am exhausted. I have my tractor but I coudln't figure out how to use it in this situation.

How do you know the question is safe? Where are you wanting to move the question?

I asked it and since the Silence did not fall, the question is safe.

Here is the safe in question. I was told wrong, it's 475 pounds

My safe weighs 1282 lbs and I watched two guys use the above method to, rather quite easily, move it into my house and into place.

ive helped a buddy of mine move a 800 lbs safe twice. The trick is to rent a safe dolly from a moving company
