MAIN INFLUENCING FACTORS ON YOUR MOVING COMPANY PRICE
WHAT INFLUENCES THE PRICE OF YOUR MOVING COMPANY QUOTATIONS?
There are many contributing factors that will influence your moving company estimate for your home and office relocation but your most important will be your inventory or list of furniture that you would like transported . Without it your moving company will not be able to establish the size of the moving truck, the required manpower, the distance and the time it will take to complete your furniture removal.
Safety, Stress & Cost Management are key so read the underlying to help keep moving prices down and ensure your furniture removal happens safely & with minimal stress:
- Inventory - Your home inventory will be the starting point to establish the volume of your required removal in order to establish Truck, Team, Distance and Time requirements.
- Moving Date – End Month Moving is always more expensive than moving during the middle of the month . Most property transfers and rentals happen at the end of the month, there is often a bottleneck of relocations happening between the 25th and 3rd of every month. Thus, removal companies will often offer lower rates in quieter periods such as the middle of the month.
- Packing – Packing is a very specialised & time-consuming service. Proper planning needs to be done to facilitate which often needs to be done a day or two before your relocation happens.
- Protective Wrapping Requirements – Delicate or specialised wrapping needs to be taken into account.
- Accessibility at Pick up & Delivery Addresses are important factors as poor truck access or difficult locations to reach may slow down the process, Possible shuttle allocation or increased manpower per hour will likely increase your moving company prices.
- Distance – Being in an industry that provides furniture transportation of goods, it should come as no surprise that the distance between pick-up and delivery locations will have a big impact on removal prices.
- Dismantling & Reassembling of Furniture – This is a time-consuming exercise and staff (s) time do need to be allocated to facilitate this process.
- Trust & Authentication: - It is very important to check that you choose removal companies that are authenticated and trusted in the removal industry. Reputation does matter and to avoid further risk and moving company cost then rather Check out the relevant platforms that authenticate removal companies in South Africa like Google Reviews, Hello Peter and Sirelo.

HOW DO I GET THE BEST MOVING QUOTE FROM A MOVING COMPANY
Save on Moving Costs
How do I get the best moving company estimate from a moving company ?
Moving Companies need to have the ability to facilitate moving services of all sizes by creating internal efficiencies and focus so they can deliver your moving services professionally and at the best moving company prices possible.
To Break it down Simplistically, There is 1 main starting factor that can be really influential when moving companies calculate your moving company cost for Cape Town and long distance moving:
- That One Most Influential factor on a Moving Quote = Moving Mid Month as opposed Moving end Month
90% of the time Property transfers and lease agreements happen at the end of the month which creates a serious bottle neck demand at the end of the month . If you are able to manipulate your move between the 3rd and the 24th of the month then you will be able to save up to 40% on your home removal.
Other Moving Cost Factors when when Moving within Your Province:
Volume (size ) of your home or office removal is critical for local moves in your respective province. This means , truck and team size and the time it will take to load and offload your furniture. Many companies large and small will simply use an average truck size with a team of 5 as a starting point to calculate your moving price. This is not efficient or fair for the consumer. The moving quote must be based on the volume (Size) of your home or office removal only, Distance will obviously play a minor roll especially if your move is further than 25 km apart. The other most influential cost to your moving company price is the when in the month you will move. End month is up to 40% more expensive and many moving companies are fully booked during this period depending on their capacity.
For Long Distance Moving Between South African Provinces.
Your moving Company needs to have the ability to efficiently coordinate and pack loads safely and securely within a larger truck space. Its doesnt make sense sending a truck. It will not be fair to charge our clients for most of the the truck and travel costs. Its important that your moving company quotes you on the space the (Volume - Size) that your furniture will use in the truck. This will provide your with a fair and cost effective moving company quote when moving between provinces.
Start by understanding what your moving company is charging you for
then you can try and use your time and resources to try and save in each area. This will effectively minimise your moving quote to suit you and your chosen moving company.
Read moving reviews – This very important to see what previous customers of the moving companies have to say about their experiences with the movers.
This way, you’ll get a general idea of what’s available, what to expect from professional movers, which companies to stay away from, and how much money you’re going to need for your move.
