Heavy beam tri-pod, hoist safe, back trailer under it, set it down. Easy Peasy.

If you only need to lift it a couple (or maybe 3) feet vertically: Just use cribbing. 4x4's, 2x4's and some 1" boards and a jack. Jack one side an inch or two and slide a board under and then the other side. It doesn't take long to walk it up to the height you need.
Once it's at trailer height, back right up to the cribbing and you can drag it off of the cribbing and onto the trailer with a come-along. Just make sure your top course of cribbing is perpendicular to the trailer to allow it to slide off without the stack coming apart.
Of course, with the price of 2x4s and 4x4's it might be cheaper to purchase a forklift.

When the weight of the safe hits the bed, those springs will sag, and you could dump the load.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
