    You may also want to contact locksmiths in your area. If they are not equipped to move safes themselves, they may be able to refer you to someone reputable who can.

    And buying a bottle of Ibuprofen might not be a bad idea either. lol

    Build ramps to slide it down the steps and then use lots of dowel rods to move it on flat surfaces

    Ordered mine through my local gun shop, came with "inside" home delivery to where I wanted it... worth the extra $$$ over a great deal IMHO

    Hope it goes well, the locksmith idea Greg had sounds like your best bet
