» Storage and Warehouse Facilities

If you require storage, your household effects will be packed into dust-proof containers (Pallets). Highly competent managers are in charge of all our storage and warehouse facilities. Regular pest inspections are carried out, and our warehouses are treated against pests every three months.

Long term storage includes periodical inspections and oiling of solid wood furniture.

For your complete peace of mind, our facilities are monitored 24 hours a day by a reputable security service.

» Moving and Packing

Our custom-built removal vehicles are equipped with satellite tracking and cell phones.

We pride ourselves in taking exceptional care of your valued possessions, and regards the correct packing and wrapping of your goods as essential for a successful move.

Our packing teams receive regular training in the latest packing techniques, while inspections ensure that packing standards are met and that our clients receive outstanding service.

We will unpack all items we have packed in the designated areas and will remove all used packing materials. If you select owner packing as an option, you may hire or buy packing materials from us.

» Insurance

Transporting household effects has inherent risks. We therefore recommend that you arrange adequate insurance cover while your consignment is in transit.

We can arrange insurance according to your individual needs through our brokers. Our insurance is almost the most affordable and comprehensive in the industry. If you wish to arrange your own cover, please compare your quotes to ours before making your decision.

*Remember:
  • Insure your consignment at replacement value
  • Complete an insurance application form
  • Read through the insurance application carefully and take note of the general exclusions and the policy of insurance

    » Moving Vehicles and Pets

    Cape Express Removals can arrange transportation of your vehicles, boats and pets on a door-to-door basis. We use reliable sub-contractors who specialise in these fields

    It is recommended that vehicles are in running order, as non-runners are more costly to transport. Remember to remove all valuables from your vehicles before being collected.

    We recommend that pets are collected one day prior to moving and delivered one day after off-loading.
