Booking with Wise Move offers a comprehensive service. Our moving companies are with you every step of the way to provide assistance.

If you require packaging materials, we’ll provide them well in advance to streamline the moving process. Should you need advice on preparations or what to anticipate, we're always just a phone call or email away, ready to assist.

For packing, we recommend keeping box weight under 20kg to ensure safe stacking. If larger boxes are necessary, please label them as heavy so we can position them correctly in the truck.

Additionally, affix a prominent FRAGILE sticker on boxes containing glass, ceramics, or other fragile items to ensure they're handled with utmost care.

Please note that we cannot move certain items, such as explosives, illegal substances, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, frozen goods, and cash. To guarantee a smooth move, consult us about any concerns regarding your cargo in advance, so we can provide appropriate solutions.

On moving day, our specialists will take care of the heavy lifting—loading large furniture and heavy items along with smaller boxed items to protect everything inside. Our movers possess the expertise to correctly stack and secure furniture and items for safe transit.

Upon arrival, your movers will assist with unloading, following your instructions for placing boxes, furniture, and appliances. After all is unloaded, they will be happy to address any questions or concerns you may have.

It’s straightforward! For reliable removals, choose Wise Move every time.

Customisable service

Our movers in Port Elizabeth handle every aspect of your move – from packing and loading to transporting, unloading, and unpacking all your possessions. We manage everything, allowing you to concentrate on what truly matters: settling into your new home or enjoying your new items.

While our movers are happy to assist with disconnecting appliances like washers, we recommend preparing them ahead of moving day. Ensure fridges and freezers are unplugged, defrosted, and cleaned before they are loaded into a van or truck. If you encounter any issues or are unsure how to prep an item for your move, please inform our movers. Our team can arrive with the necessary tools on the packing day to assist you before the scheduled moving day.

For more technical tasks such as mains disconnection and connections, we suggest hiring an electrician or plumber.

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.

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.

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.
