Our movers and packers in Durban are thoroughly vetted, expertly trained, and experienced in removals of all scales. They work closely with you to cater to your unique needs and expectations. From loading to unloading, they secure and manage each item with precision. This is the hallmark of the Wise Move experience.
Moreover, they are flexible and responsive to changing situations, always prioritising the security and safety of your items, regardless of any challenges. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we consistently deliver.
Booking with Wise Move ensures a comprehensive service. Our moving companies support you at every stage.
If you require packaging materials, we'll provide them well in advance to streamline the moving process. Should you need guidance or advice on preparation and what to expect, we're just a phone call or email away to assist.
For packing, we recommend keeping box weight under 20 kg to allow safe stacking. If using a larger box, label it as heavy so we can place it appropriately in the truck.
Similarly, make sure to clearly mark any boxes containing glass, ceramics, or fragile items with a FRAGILE sticker to ensure they’re handled with utmost care.
Please note there are certain items we cannot or are legally not allowed to move. This includes explosives, illegal drugs, firearms, hazardous chemicals, jewellery, frozen goods, and cash. For a seamless moving experience, it’s best to consult us if you have any questions concerning your cargo so we can offer guidance.
On moving day, our specialists manage the heavy lifting—loading large furniture and hefty items securely. They carefully stack and bind everything, ensuring the safety of all your possessions in transit. Each mover is skilled and knowledgeable in safeguarding your items during the move.
Upon arrival, your movers will assist with unloading and follow your instructions on the placement of boxes, furniture, and appliances. After everything is unloaded, they are more than happy to address any questions or concerns you may have.
It's that straightforward! For reliable removals, choose Wise Move.

While our movers can assist with tasks like unplugging washers, we advise that appliances be prepared before moving day.

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.
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.
