Moving companies services: Port Elizabeth to Johannesburg

Moving handled with care

When relocating your home or items in Port Elizabeth, you’ll want assurance that your furniture and belongings are handled by capable professionals.

Our movers and packers in Port Elizabeth are thoroughly vetted, trained, and experienced in removals of all types and sizes. They collaborate with you to understand your specific needs and expectations, ensuring safe handling from loading to unloading. This is what the Wise Move experience embodies.

Importantly, they can adjust to changing circumstances, always prioritising the security and safety of your possessions, regardless of any challenges that may arise. Your satisfaction is our duty, and we consistently deliver.

Booking with Wise Move ensures a comprehensive service. Our moving companies support you every step of the way.

If you need packing materials, we’ll provide them well in advance to streamline your moving process. Should you require guidance or advice on preparation and expectations, we're just a phone call or email away.

When packing, we recommend keeping box weights limited to 20kg – this makes stacking them easier without crushing contents. If using a larger box, label it as heavy for appropriate placement in the vehicle.

Likewise, applying a prominent FRAGILE sticker to boxes containing glass, ceramics, or other delicate items will ensure they are handled with extreme care throughout the journey.

Please note that some items cannot be moved legally or safely, such as explosives, illegal drugs, firearms, dangerous chemicals, jewellery, frozen goods, and cash. To ensure a seamless moving experience, get in touch with us about any concerns regarding your cargo, and we’ll offer helpful solutions.

On the day, our experts will manage any large tasks – loading oversized furniture and heavy items, organising them alongside smaller boxed goods to protect all contents. Their expertise ensures proper stacking and securing of furniture and parcels during transit.

Upon arrival, your movers will assist with unloading, following your instructions on where to place items, furniture, and installations. If there are any questions or concerns once everything is unloaded, they will be happy to assist in any way possible.

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

Customisable service

Our movers in Port Elizabeth handle the entire relocation process – from packing and loading to transporting, unloading, and unpacking all your belongings. We manage everything, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: enjoying your new home or item.

While our movers assist with tasks such as disconnecting washing machines, we suggest preparing all appliances prior to moving day. Fridges and freezers should be unplugged, defrosted, and cleaned before being loaded into the van or truck. If you face any issues or are unsure how to prepare an item for moving, please inform our movers. On packing day, our team can bring the necessary tools to handle it for you prior to the scheduled moving day.

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

If you require clearance and decluttering services in Port Elizabeth to clear rooms, garages, and attics, we will coordinate these arrangements for you and incorporate the service into your booking.

Single item delivery

We understand the challenges of moving single items. In Port Elizabeth, some movers might not accommodate small items quickly, while for others, it's just not cost-effective. Yet, there are times when you need assistance transporting a large wardrobe, bed, an antique, piano, or a bulky sofa.

For our experts in Port Elizabeth, no task is too small or too big. Whatever you need delivered, our team will ensure it reaches its destination with our Door-to-Door service at a reasonable price.

Our movers will assist with packing, load your item into the vehicle, and transport it anywhere within South Africa.

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.

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.
