Delivery and installation: how your safe reaches you
Curb-side delivery or delivery to your preferred location? What both options offer, the costs for anchoring and old safe removal, and the conditions that apply to site access.
by Tim Herberger, Fachredaktion bei Bremer Tresor
A safe is not a parcel. From 31 kilograms, it travels as general cargo or with our own service team, and from that point on, your access route determines which method is the right one. Two delivery methods are available, plus two services that you can book separately.
Which delivery method suits you?
Four questions, no registration, no shopping cart. You will make the final selection at checkout anyway; this is just for guidance.
Curb-side or desired location
Curb-side delivery is free of charge in Germany and Austria. The freight forwarder delivers the safe on a one-way pallet to the curb. From there, it is up to you: further transport, positioning, and anchoring. For ground-level situations and manageable models, this is the most straightforward way.
Delivery to the desired location means that our service team will bring the safe to the designated spot using a stair climber, if necessary with up to five specialists. If there is no way through the house, we can bring safes weighing up to approximately 400 kilograms through a window, provided conditions are suitable.
Anchoring and old safe removal
Both services are not separate delivery methods, but supplements to the delivery to the desired location. They can be booked individually or together.
- Anchoring with certificate
- Our technicians will anchor the safe professionally and according to the subfloor; anchoring material is included. You will receive a certificate recognized by insurance companies and authorities. Details on how we anchor can be found under Installation site.
- Old safe removal
- The new safe comes in, the old one is discreetly taken away during the same appointment. This saves a second appointment and the hassle of disposal.
What you should know in advance
| Point | Regulation |
|---|---|
| Up to 31 kg | Shipping as a parcel |
| Over 31 kg | General cargo shipping or delivery by Bremer Tresor |

| Access route | If the route is impassable or no one is available, you will bear the costs of the unsuccessful delivery attempt |

Accessories are often shipped separately as their own parcel and do not necessarily arrive at the same time as the safe. Do not be surprised if two shipments are on their way.
