Johannesburg removals
A big, fast city where nobody has a spare day to waste
Joburg moves are usually run against the clock — a lease that ends on the 31st, an estate that only allows moves between 08:00 and 17:00, a complex with one boom gate and no patience. The mover who quotes cheapest on the phone is the one who arrives late and asks for more.
MoveSure prices the move properly the first time, in writing, and puts a carrier on it who has passed our vetting: CIPC registration, goods-in-transit insurance, roadworthy check, references and a monitored trial move.

Move sizes
What size truck will you need?
| Move size | Typically | Usual truck |
|---|---|---|
| A few items | Single bedroom of furniture, a fridge, a few boxes | Bakkie or 4-ton |
| Bachelor / 1-bedroom | Bed, couch, fridge, washer, 15 to 25 boxes | 4-ton |
| 2-bedroom | Two bedrooms, lounge, dining, appliances | 8-ton |
| 3-bedroom | Full family home, garden and garage items | 8 to 14-ton |
| 4-bedroom or larger | Large home, double garage, outdoor furniture | 14-ton or dedicated truck |
| Office / commercial | Desks, chairs, servers, filing, boardroom | Sized per site survey |
These are the truck sizes carriers usually assign. Your actual fixed price depends on your inventory, the distance, access at both ends and your date — which is exactly why we confirm it in writing rather than guessing on the phone.

Before you ask
Questions, answered
How much does a move in Johannesburg cost?
It depends on your volume, the access at both ends and your date. Send us your inventory and you get a fixed, all-inclusive price in writing within 2 working hours — not a phone estimate that changes on the day.
Do you move within estates and complexes?
Yes. Tell us the estate rules and permitted move times on the quote form so the carrier plans around them instead of arguing with a boom gate.
Can you move me from Johannesburg to Cape Town?
Yes — it is our core corridor, run weekly in both directions. See Johannesburg to Cape Town.
Do you cover Pretoria and the East Rand?
Yes, and the West Rand. If it is Gauteng, we cover it.
Are your Johannesburg movers insured?
Every carrier is CIPC-registered and goods-in-transit insured, and we verify the certificate before they carry a MoveSure job.
