I bought the Canon from CostCo and had three friends help me get it upstairs. We used a refrigerator dolly I rented from U-Haul. Two above and two below. Couldn't have fit any more helpers and couldn't have managed with any less.

Thanks guys. Sounds like it should be a good time had by all. Who wants to be below the safe if one of the guys on top slips?? Don't everyone raise their hand at once! LOL

Tip #2. Grab a couple of those round "Furniture Mover's" that are round plastic discs that slide easily over carpet. Can use them to move the safe around a corner if you cant' tip the dolly and also to move it into it's final resting place. Keeps the carpet from bunching up and leaving a huge "wrinkle" behind it when you shove it against the wall.
BTW, the more bodies you have below the safe as you move it up the stairs the less likelihood of damaging the apartment building or safe if it slips. They make good "bumpers" _________________ "I've learned from the Dog that an afternoon nap is a good thing" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "For he to-day that sheds his blood with me Shall be my brother" - William Shakespeare |

More protection for the walls and what not LMAO _________________ Even if "everyone is doing it" wrong is never right. Evil, error and darkness will never be truth, even if popular. |
