When you need to relocate your home or belongings in Johannesburg, it's essential to ensure your furniture and possessions are handled by experienced professionals who prioritise safety.

Our movers in Johannesburg have been rigorously vetted and extensively trained, excelling in removals regardless of size or complexity. They work closely with you to meet your individual needs. From loading to unloading, they expertly manage and secure each item, embodying the Wise Move standard.

Importantly, our movers are adept at navigating unexpected challenges, maintaining the security of your belongings at all times. Your satisfaction is our prime concern, and we are committed to delivering excellence.

Booking with Wise Move guarantees a comprehensive service. Our moving companies are with you from start to finish, providing assistance every step of the way.

Should you require packaging materials, we supply them promptly to streamline your moving process. For guidance on preparation and expectations, feel free to contact us anytime; we're always available via phone or email.

When packing, we advise keeping box weight under 20kg to ensure safe stacking. For heavier items in larger boxes, label them clearly so we know the best placement in the truck.

Applying a prominent FRAGILE sticker on boxes containing glassware, ceramics, or other breakables helps us handle these with extra care throughout the move.

Please remember certain items, like explosives, illegal substances, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, frozen goods, and cash, are either restricted or not allowed for transport. If unsure, consult us in advance to find alternative solutions, ensuring a smooth moving experience.

On moving day, our specialists manage all major tasks—loading furniture and heavy items into trucks securely alongside smaller boxes. They have the expertise to stack and secure items correctly for safe transport.

Upon arrival, our movers assist with unloading as per your instructions, ensuring boxes and furniture are positioned as you request. If you need further assistance or have any concerns, they're eager to help.

It's that simple! For reliable removals, always choose Wise Move.

When your belongings arrive at their new location, our movers take every measure to protect your home during the moving process, including safeguarding floors, bannisters, and carpets to prevent any damage.

For relocating furniture to upper floors, Wise Move teams utilise hoist hire services to lift your belongings effortlessly, whether inside or outside the building. All details will be communicated to you in advance, providing peace of mind.

If you have any concerns or specific requirements for your move in Johannesburg, simply inform us beforehand so we can plan accordingly, promising you a hassle-free and straightforward moving experience.

Customisable service

Our movers in Johannesburg are prepared to handle every step of your move, from packing and loading to transporting, unloading, and unpacking all your belongings. We take care of every detail, allowing you to focus on the significant task of settling into your new home or enjoying your newly acquired item.

While our movers can assist with tasks like disconnecting washing machines, we recommend that you prepare all appliances before moving day. Ensure refrigerators and freezers are unplugged, defrosted, and cleaned prior to loading them onto the van or truck. If you encounter difficulties or are unsure how to ready an item for your move, please inform our movers. On the designated packing day, our team can arrive equipped with the necessary tools to assist before the scheduled moving day.

For more complex tasks, such as mains disconnections or connections, we suggest hiring a qualified electrician or plumber.

If you require clearance and declutter services in Johannesburg to tidy up rooms, garages, and attics, we're here to facilitate those arrangements, seamlessly incorporating them into your move.

Single item delivery

We understand the hassle of moving a single item. Many movers in Johannesburg aren't equipped for swift small-item relocations, and for some, it just doesn’t make financial sense. Yet sometimes you need assistance with transporting a large wardrobe, bed, antique, piano, or oversized sofa.

Our professionals in Johannesburg handle jobs of all sizes. Whatever you need to be transported, our team provides reliable Door-to-Door delivery at competitive rates.

Our movers will assist with packing, carefully load your item into the vehicle, and ensure its safe transport to and from any location in South Africa.

Purchased a bulky item on Gumtree that's 'Pickup Only'? Our services are perfectly suited to cater to the needs of online shoppers. We offer a comprehensive and friendly courier service across South Africa, ensuring delivery to your doorstep on the same day or as per your request.

100% customer satisfaction

We are one of the most recommended moving companies in South Africa. Our customers are the driving force behind everything we do, and we constantly strive to improve our service based on the feedback we receive.

If you’re looking for a trusted mover, you’ve come to the right place. Our skilled professionals from all over South Africa are consistently rated highly by our customers.

With over 5,891 reviews on our website and a 9.4-rating you can ensure a quality, trusted service.

Over 85% of our service clients have referred us to their families and friends. We are proud to have a stellar reputation in the community and are grateful for every referral we receive.

Full packing service

When you’re moving house, packing sensibly is an absolute must. However carefully removal teams transport items, packing is always necessary to prevent any breakages or damage.

At Wise Move, we’ve brought together the finest packers South Africa has to offer – and they’re all available to professionally package anything from antiques to stuffed toys, instruments to ceramics. Our experts are efficient, reliable and always take the greatest of care; these are packers you can trust.

Generally, when we pack your items, we’ll choose one of two methods: fragile or blanket packing. Fragile wrapping sees us wrap precious and fragile items with added bubble wrap, to be placed in specialised boxes. Blanket packing sees us use professional-grade wrapping blankets for larger items, such as furniture, which can’t fit in protective boxes.

With both of these methods, we’ll take the utmost care, drawing on our experience and expertise to secure everything during the move.

Available across South Africa

From the smallest rural community to the biggest city, our platform has all the right people to deliver your furniture and possessions, wherever you are in South Africa.

After you post your delivery request, we’ll match you up with the moving teams in Johannesburg who can reach both you and your destination. Once you’ve compared your options and chosen the movers team for you, it’s just a matter of letting them know where you are and where you need to go (and when).

Better yet, we can work closely with your family, friends or employees under remote instruction from you as the client to get everything packed and delivered. You don’t even have to be at the point of collection or final destination; you can trust our movers to get the job done to your highest levels of satisfaction.

That’s a Wise Move guarantee.

No hidden fees

When you need to move, we understand how frustrating it can be to expect to pay one price, only for extra costs to add up as the process drags on.

At Wise Move, we’ve done away with all that thanks to our strict ‘no hidden fees’ policy. Whatever quote we give you for your moving job will be final, no ifs or buts. We’re proud to offer value-driven moving for you, your family and your business that never takes you for granted.

Our charges are fully inclusive of petrol and any other charges the removal process might incur – including VAT, the goods and service tax levied by the government.

If you have any questions or queries about the quote you’ve been given, you can always get in touch and our friendly support team will be happy to help.
