Cape Town to Johannesburg moving services

Moving handled with care

When relocating your home or belongings in Cape Town, you need assurance that your furniture and valuables are in expert hands.

Our movers and packers in Cape Town are thoroughly vetted, expertly trained, and experienced in handling removals of all sizes. They work closely with you to understand your specific requirements. From loading to unloading, they ensure each item is managed securely. This is the hallmark of the Wise Move experience.

Importantly, they adapt to evolving circumstances, prioritising the safety and security of your belongings, regardless of any challenges encountered. Your satisfaction is our commitment, and we consistently meet it.

Booking with Wise Move ensures a comprehensive service. Our moving companies are on hand throughout every phase to support you.

Should you require packing materials, we’ll deliver them promptly before the move, aiding you to get started early. If you seek advice on preparation and what to anticipate, we’re readily available by phone or email.

When packing, we recommend keeping box weights to a maximum of 20kg—this facilitates safe stacking without damage. If using a larger box, ensure it's marked as heavy, enabling us to position it properly in the truck.

Similarly, affix a prominent FRAGILE label on boxes containing glass, ceramics or other delicate items to guarantee careful handling at all times.

Please remember, certain items cannot be moved for legal or safety reasons. These include explosives, illegal drugs, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, frozen produce, and cash. To ensure a seamless moving experience, it’s always advisable to consult us with any questions about your items in advance, allowing us to propose solutions.

On moving day, our experts manage the heavy lifting, such as large furniture and bulky items. They will load these alongside smaller boxed items, ensuring safety through proper stacking techniques. Each mover possesses the necessary skills to stack and secure furniture and items adequately during transit.

Upon arrival, our movers will assist with the unloading process, following your instructions for placing boxes, furniture and installations. If any issues arise post-unloading, they are more than willing to provide assistance.

It's as simple as that! For dependable removals, choose Wise Move.

7 days / week

Locating a mover in Cape Town that suits your schedule can be challenging. Whether you need an item collected on a specific day or you’re pressed for time and have only one available day to move, we are here to assist you.

We collaborate with a diverse network of movers in Cape Town who are at your service any day of the week, including weekends and public holidays.

With Wise Move, you can bypass the hassle of contacting multiple movers to meet your needs. A single message eliminates the necessity for hours of research or numerous phone calls. You'll receive bookings from movers who are available on your chosen days.

Customisable service

Our movers in Cape Town will manage the entire process for you – from packing and loading to transporting, unloading, and unpacking all your belongings. We handle everything so that you can focus on enjoying your new home or item.

While our movers can assist with tasks like disconnecting washers, we advise that appliances should be ready before moving day. Fridges and freezers must be unplugged, defrosted, and cleaned before being loaded into a van or truck. If you encounter any issues or are unsure how to prepare an item for your move, please inform our movers. On the packing day, our team can arrive with the necessary tools to assist you before the scheduled moving day.

For more complex tasks like mains disconnections or connections, we recommend hiring a qualified electrician or plumber.

If you need a clearance and declutter service in Cape Town to organise rooms, garages, and attics, we’ll arrange this for you and integrate the service into your booking.

Single item delivery

We understand that transporting a single item can be a hassle. Some movers in Cape Town may not be available for quick moves with smaller items, while others find it uneconomical. However, whether it’s a large wardrobe, bed, antique piece, piano, or an oversized sofa, sometimes you just need a helping hand.

For our Cape Town professionals, every task, big or small, matters. Whatever you need to be delivered, our team will ensure it reaches its destination Door-to-Door, all at an affordable rate.

Our movers are ready to assist with packing, loading your items into the vehicle, and transporting them from any location to any destination within South Africa.

Bought something heavy or large on Gumtree that is ‘Pickup Only’? We’ve developed a bespoke service to cater to the needs of online shoppers. Offering a comprehensive and friendly courier service throughout South Africa, we can bring items right to your door, whether you need it delivered the same day or the next.

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 6,052 reviews on our website and a 9.4-rating you can ensure a quality, trusted service.

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.

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.
