Wife and I recently moved, and i hope to remain at this location awhile. Looking to get my first safe, but since we may move again in the next few years, not looking to get anything incredibly heavy or large. Hence, I was hoping you guys/gals could help me with the following:

 

1. Good quality safe (quality = decent security and fire rating, under $700 or less) to hold about 6 long guns and a few pistols; and

 

2. Any retailer (local preferred) that would deliver and help me get it down into the basement?

 

For No. 2, sure, I can get my brothers/buddies to help. However, I do not have a garage and don't want to have a safe sitting out in the open while i wait for people's schedules to free up...

 

Thanks in advance!

* Edit - Local = central jersey, but I'm not opposed to other suggestions. 

I have had good luck with Cannon safes. Gunsafes.com offers free delivery and with 3 people plus a hand truck you should be able to move a safe of the size your considering without much of a problem.

I weighs 507lbs. But the door comes off and the shelving is removable, which cuts off about 175lbs. I had my nephews carry it down the basement for me.

 

 

Here is a smaller 300lb safe.

^ The Winchester safe listed above is a good value and they will load it 

onto a p/u truck for you at T&S.

The door comes off to make it easier to move from the truck into your home.

Two guys & an Hand Truck should be able to move it with no problems a slong

as you take the door off, and re-install when safe is in place.
