Long-distance moving costs in South Africa, cheaper movers' prices, and a better service!
![Long-distance moving costs in South Africa, cheaper movers' prices, and a better service!](https://biz-file.com/c/2107/618028-700x466.jpg)
Beyond the generally palatable, if often unavoidable, the costs of moving home locally (suburb to suburb, town to town) or cost of moving long distance can get quite pricey. Suburb to suburb uses a different formula than long distance as there is a lot more miles to cover when going from Johannesburg to Cape Town, Durban to Port Elizabeth, Durban to Cape Town or vice versa. The long-distance removals will naturally be more expensive as due to the miles and higher value (cost of truck + insurance) and higher running costs of those bigger trucks.
That’s why your Cape Furniture Removalists rolls out a special service specifically for long distance removals in South Africa. Using our network of nationwide moving companies and furniture transport, we offer huge cost-savings through Share Load Removals along all major routes in South Africa.
Share Load for long distance furniture removals - Great way to save relocation costs
Part Load or Share Load Removal Removal Company services, is a national network of large trucks run by Cape Removal's furniture removalists, with each truck capable of carrying several households’ worth of goods and furniture. And they run weekly routes all around the country.
How it works is, if you must move house to another part of the country, you don’t have to book an expensive container or entire load or truck, you simply purchase a “share” or “part” of a load that’s already going to your destination city. That means you only pay for the trip one-way (instead of the full fare) and the running costs of the moving companies’ transport is shared among all the clients whose goods are being carried. And the price difference can be a huge saving on your long distance moving company costs.

How much does a long distance move cost using a courier or transport company?
Without taking the efficiency of Share Load transport, it can be quite expensive: If you take into account that even a local (nearby) move of a larger 3- or 4-bedroom house can be upwards of R5000 at most local moving companies, you can only imagine that those movers' costs escalate when moving long distance using traditional furniture transport. Relocating from Cape Town to Johannesburg or anywhere in South Africa and using traditional long-distance transport with dedicated truck and driver or courier companies can range between R7500 from one item to R120 000 for a 4 bedroom home without a removal company expertise when handling and protecting furniture.
That’s just too expensive for the average person, which is why we at Cape Removals created the much more affordable Share Load removals option.
What is the cheapest way to move furniture long distance?
That's why Cape Removals started specialising and developing its Share Load Moving Company service between all South African cities. We ensured that this furniture removals service was consistent & regular (weekly between Cape Town, Johannesburg , Pretoria Garden Route and Durban) and our national furniture removalists’ network was able to bring down the costs of long distance removals between Cape Town, Johannesburg and all South African cities and towns to between R2200 and R5000 (depending on the towns accessibility) for small load – which provided huge savings for our clients with small load removal requirements!
Cape Town to Durban is around R3500 to R6000, and it's similar with all major routes in South Africa. Our furniture removalists’ Share Load Removals run weekly long-distance furniture removals between Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban, Pretoria, Port Elizabeth, Bloemfontein etc. – virtually every city in the country.
Johannesburg to Cape Town prices is even more efficient because of the higher volume of relocations happening between Gauteng and The Western Cape. Therefore, we can provide better costing, which can cost around R2500 to R3500 for one to 5 items of furniture, and it's the same with all major routes in South Africa. Our furniture removalists' Share Load Removals run weekly long-distance furniture removals between Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban, Pretoria, Port Elizabeth, Bloemfontein etc. – virtually every city in the country.
