LOTS-O-SAFES (GOV Deals Auction)

[Jstevens56]

Up on Govdeals is an auction for a lot of 6 heavy duty safes (not gun safes) but you could use them for storage of guns. Auctions like this usually dont go very high due to them being close to maryland, most auctions that do well are mid/west states and the fact that its hard to move that much stuff.

Might be an interesting group buy

Thanks

I have one of the double door ones and it is over 2000lbs empty. They would also need to have a locksmith put the dials on so they will lock. But the price is super cheap.

Wow. That would do the trick. Could a flatbed tow truck do the trick for hauling these?

Wish I had the room. If the price was right, I'd take a safe and let anyone who helped have one, too.

We have a few safe people on here. If we could get them for $150-200 then rent the truck and pallet jack and buy/install new locks it could be a good deal. I'm in for a big one.

 

[RangerWillrett]

I would love to have them but I don't have room for them.

This is the business that Safecracker is in. Hopefully he will see this thread and chime in.

I would probably be in for a big one if one of our resident experts say it's worth it.

 

[Mooseman]

This would be a great deal of you had the room and the manpower to move them.

 

[safecracker]

From what I see in the photos, all of the safes seem to be in serviceable condition. Looks like the lot can be had for maybe a few hundred bucks. If you guys pick these up, I can install replacement locks and get these back in service. I can also help arrange a couple of rollback to transport them. I'm sure safetech will help too.....

if they average 1500lbs between all 6 then its about $450.00 scrap value. any one with a flat bed and the day off?

 

[safecracker]

NO scrap value. These containers are filled with fire insulation. Scrap yards will not take them.

I could go 400 or so for the Schwab. Ground-level door won't take much larger.

Went for a few dollars over $300. Anyone on here win it?
