They collaborate with you to understand your specific needs and expectations, ensuring the secure management of each item from loading to unloading. This is all part of the Wise Move experience.

Booking with Wise Move offers a comprehensive service. Our moving companies accompany you every step of the way to assist.

If you require packing materials, we’ll provide them well in advance to streamline the moving process. Should you need guidance or advice on preparation and what to expect, we’re readily available via phone or email to support you.

For packing, we recommend keeping box weight to a maximum of 20kg to ensure we can stack them without causing damage. If larger boxes are used, please label them as heavy so that we can position them correctly in the truck.

Additionally, affixing a large, highly visible FRAGILE sticker on any boxes containing glass, ceramics, or other breakables will ensure they are handled with the utmost care at all times.

Please note that there are certain items we cannot legally move, such as explosives, illegal drugs, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, frozen goods, and cash. To ensure a seamless moving experience, reach out to us with any concerns or queries about your items in advance so we can provide solutions.

On the moving day, our specialists will manage the heavy lifting—loading large furniture and bulky items. They’ll place these alongside smaller boxed items in trucks, ensuring the safety and integrity of everything; careful stacking prevents any breakage. Our movers possess the expertise to stack and secure furniture and items for safe transport.

Upon arrival, your movers will assist with unloading, following your guidance on the placement of boxes, furniture, and fixtures. If any questions or concerns arise after unloading, they’ll be more than pleased to assist where possible.

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

Full packing service

When moving house, professional packing isn't simply advisable—it's essential. Even with highly experienced moving teams managing your belongings, the packing process itself plays a crucial technical role in preventing damage or breakage. Proper packing provides essential cushioning, structural integrity, shock absorption, and secure containment, all of which are critical during transportation.

At Wise Move, we have assembled a network of South Africa’s premier packing specialists, thoroughly trained in advanced and technical packing methodologies tailored specifically for diverse household items. Our moving teams have extensive knowledge of packing materials, methods, weight distribution, and transport dynamics, enabling them to safely handle everything from fragile antiques and fine ceramics to sophisticated electronics, musical instruments, bulky furniture, and household appliances.

For fragile and highly sensitive items, such as fine china, glassware, artwork, or antiques, our teams employ an intricate Fragile Packing procedure. Each item undergoes a technical multi-step packing process beginning with acid-free tissue paper to guard against scratches, chemical reactions, or surface damage. This is followed by individual wrapping in multiple layers of high-density, industrial-grade bubble wrap designed specifically for superior shock absorption and vibration dampening. Items are then securely packed into reinforced double-wall corrugated boxes. The boxes are systematically arranged and clearly marked for identification, ensuring careful handling throughout the entire relocation process.

For furniture and larger household items such as cabinets, sofas, tables, and kitchen appliances, our teams utilise Blanket Packing—a highly technical method leveraging thick, durable, professional-grade moving blankets. Each item is expertly wrapped and secured using robust strapping or stretch film to prevent shifting, friction, or abrasion during transport. The technical approach employed by our moving teams ensures not only physical protection but also breathability, reducing potential moisture build-up that could otherwise damage surfaces.

Beyond packing, Wise Move's moving teams consistently apply precise handling and vehicle loading procedures. Items are meticulously arranged within moving trucks according to weight, size, and fragility, using advanced loading strategies to balance loads and optimise space utilisation. Securely strapped and braced to minimise shifting, items remain stable throughout transit, significantly reducing the potential for damage due to movement or vibration.

With Wise Move, your relocation is managed with technical precision and care, ensuring every item arrives safely and securely at your new home.
