Heavy, tall and top-heavy

Planned moves for difficult equipment

A safe concentrates hundreds of pounds into a small footprint. A vending machine is tall, awkward and contains sensitive internal components. Before moving either one, we review its dimensions, estimated weight, stairs, turns, thresholds, flooring and parking access.

That preparation helps us select the right crew, dolly, ramp or liftgate and protection materials before arriving.

Vending machine transport

Kept upright, wrapped and controlled

Before transport, products, cash, trays and loose pieces should be removed. Refrigerated units should be properly disconnected and defrosted. We wrap the cabinet, protect vulnerable edges and glass, use suitable moving equipment, and secure the machine upright in the truck.

For hard-wired, plumbed or specialized units, a qualified technician should complete disconnection and reconnection.

Helpful answers

Safe & vending moving FAQ

Every heavy-item move is different. These answers cover the details customers most often ask about.

How much does it cost to move a safe in London?

Pricing depends on weight, size, stairs, turns, flooring, distance and placement. Photos of the safe and the complete access path allow us to quote accurately.

Do you move gun safes and commercial safes?

Yes, subject to safe weight, dimensions and access. Please provide the brand/model and approximate weight before booking.

Can you move a safe up or down stairs?

Some stair moves are possible after assessment. Stair width, construction, turns, landings and total weight determine whether the route is safe.

Does the safe need to be empty?

Yes. Remove firearms, ammunition, cash, jewellery, documents, medication and all other contents before arrival. We move the safe itself, not its contents.

Can you move a safe within the same building?

Yes. Room-to-room and floor-to-floor moves may be possible when the route, flooring and structure can safely support the move.

What vending machines do you move?

We handle many standard snack, beverage and combination vending machines. Share photos, dimensions and model details so we can confirm equipment and crew requirements.

How should I prepare a vending machine?

Remove products, cash, trays and loose parts. Disconnect power, empty liquids, and defrost refrigerated units. Arrange a qualified technician for plumbing or electrical work.

Do vending machines stay upright?

We plan to keep machines upright and secure whenever their design and access allow, helping protect internal components and refrigeration systems.

Do you use a hydraulic liftgate?

We use suitable ramps or liftgate equipment based on the machine, site and truck assigned to the move.

Can you pick up from a store or storage unit?

Yes. We can coordinate pickups and deliveries involving homes, businesses, warehouses, sellers and storage facilities.

Are you insured?

Yes, Gypsee Movers is fully insured. Contact us if a building manager requires documentation before the move date.

What should I send for a quote?

Send item photos, model, weight if known, both addresses, stairs, doorways, turns, flooring, parking and desired placement.
