Moving companies and Durban movers services

Moving handled with care

When relocating your home or belongings in Durban, you’ll want assurance that your furniture and possessions are in the best possible hands, managed exclusively by professionals.

Our movers and packers in Durban are thoroughly checked, skilled, and experienced in moving items of all sizes, working closely with you to fully understand your unique needs and expectations. They specialise in securing and managing each item from start to finish. This is the Wise Move experience.

Importantly, they are adept at navigating changing situations, always prioritising the safety of your belongings regardless of any challenges. Your satisfaction is our commitment, and we consistently deliver.

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

If you require packaging materials, we’ll deliver them well in advance to streamline the moving process. Should you need advice on preparation or expectations, we’re just a phone call or email away, ready to assist.

For packing, we suggest limiting box weight to 20kg, enabling safe stacking without risk of damage. If using a larger box, label it as heavy so we know how to position it properly in the truck.

Additionally, placing a prominent FRAGILE sticker on boxes containing glass, ceramics, or breakables ensures they receive the utmost care.

Please note there are certain items we cannot move, such as explosives, illegal substances, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, perishable items, and cash. For a seamless moving experience, it’s best to consult with us in advance if you have any concerns about your items, allowing us to propose solutions.

On moving day, our experts will manage all significant tasks—loading large furniture and heavy items. They will arrange these in the trucks with smaller boxed items to guarantee the integrity and safety of everything. Each mover is equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to stack and secure furniture and items during transit.

Upon arrival, your movers will assist with unloading, following your guidance on placing boxes, furniture, and fixtures. If you have any questions or concerns once everything is unloaded, they will gladly offer help where needed.

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

Fully equipped

Successful furniture removals in Durban require a blend of expertise and state-of-the-art equipment, ensuring your belongings are transported efficiently and safely. Our professional movers at Wise Move possess the necessary expertise, complemented by the finest professional-grade tools available to complete every job to the highest standard.

Equipped with top-tier moving gear, we handle unwieldy and heavy furniture with ease—items that other services might struggle with. Whether navigating staircases or accessing multi-story buildings, our team expertly lifts, manoeuvres, and positions your items precisely where you desire them.

To maximise the volume of your belongings on each journey, our movers are equipped with reliable, heavy-duty vehicles suitable for both local and extended trips. These vehicles feature the essential harnesses and clips to secure your possessions, ensuring their safety during transit across Durban.

Upon arrival at your destination, our movers take comprehensive measures to safeguard your home from any potential damage during the move. Protective steps include securing floors, bannisters, and carpets against rips, tears, and other harm.

For furniture relocation to upper floors, Wise Move teams utilise hoist equipment to effortlessly lift furnishings either inside or outside the premises. All arrangements and communications are made in advance to ensure your peace of mind.

Customisable service

Our movers in Durban are equipped to handle every aspect of your relocation – from packing and loading to transporting, unloading, and unpacking your possessions. We'll manage every detail so you can concentrate on what truly matters: settling into your new space or enjoying your newly moved item.

While our movers can assist with tasks like disconnecting washing machines, we recommend preparing your appliances ahead of moving day. Ensure fridges and freezers are unplugged, defrosted, and cleaned before they are loaded onto a van or truck. Should there be any issues, or if you're unsure how to get an item ready for the move, please inform our movers. On packing day, our team can arrive with the appropriate tools and handle it for you before the scheduled move.

For more complex tasks such as mains disconnection/connections, we advise hiring a qualified electrician or plumber.

If you require a clearance and declutter service in Durban to tidy up rooms, garages, and attics, we’ll organise this for you as part of your move.

Single item delivery

We understand the challenges of moving a single item. Many moving services in Durban aren't equipped to handle small, urgent jobs or find them not cost-effective. However, whether you need to transport a large wardrobe, a bed, an antique, a piano, or a bulky sofa, assistance is available.

In Durban, our professionals handle any job, big or small. Whatever you need delivered, rest assured our team will provide reliable Door-to-Door service at competitive prices.

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

Picked up a heavy or large item on Gumtree that's 'Pickup Only'? We offer a specialised service catering to online shoppers' needs. Our extensive and friendly courier service operates across South Africa, delivering items to your destination the same day or the next day, as requested.

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 5,678 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.

After you post your delivery request, we’ll match you up with the moving teams in Durban 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.
