Moving companies and Pretoria movers services

Moving handled with care

When relocating your home or belongings in Pretoria, it's essential to ensure that your furniture and possessions are managed by professionals who prioritise their safety.

Our Pretoria-based movers and packers are thoroughly vetted, trained, and experienced in handling removals of all sizes. They work closely with you to meet your specific needs and expectations, managing every item securely from loading to unloading as part of the Wise Move service.

Our team is adept at navigating unexpected challenges, prioritising the protection of your belongings throughout the entire process. Your satisfaction is our commitment, and we consistently meet it.

Booking with Wise Move ensures a comprehensive service. Our moving companies are with you at every stage to provide assistance.

If you require packing materials, we will supply them well in advance of your move to streamline the process. Should you need advice or guidance on preparation or expectations, our team is just a phone call or email away.

For packing, we recommend limiting boxes to a 20kg maximum—this allows for safe stacking without crushing. If you need to use larger boxes, label them as heavy to ensure proper placement in our vehicles.

Additionally, make sure to secure FRAGILE stickers on any boxes containing items like glass or ceramics to ensure they are handled with utmost care.

Please note that certain items cannot be moved legally or safely, such as explosives, illegal substances, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, frozen goods, and cash. It's best to discuss any concerns about your cargo with us in advance for a seamless move.

On moving day, our experts will handle all significant tasks, including loading bulky furniture and weighty items. They ensure a careful arrangement in the trucks, protecting both large and small items during transit. Each team member is equipped with the skills and knowledge to keep your belongings secure while moving.

Upon arrival, your movers will assist with unloading, following your guidance on where to place furniture, boxes, and installations. After everything is unloaded, they are available to address any queries or concerns to your satisfaction.

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

Customisable service

Our movers in Pretoria handle every step of the moving process, from packing and loading to transporting, unloading, and unpacking your belongings. We manage all the details so you can focus on what matters most: settling into your new home or enjoying your newly acquired item.

Our movers can assist with tasks such as disconnecting washing machines; however, we recommend that appliances be prepared before the moving day.

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.
