Professional Moving Company in Claremont | Verified by Excellent Reviews
Moving into Claremont, or out of it? Biggles Removals is a fully insured team of furniture movers working across Claremont and the wider Southern Suburbs, and our furniture removals and moving services reach every street between Main Road and the M3. When you’re choosing between moving companies here, it usually comes down to one question: has the crew done a Main Road apartment block before, and do they know to book the service lift the week before rather than on the morning?
Claremont isn’t one kind of move. There’s a business district with flats stacked above it, a Victorian village east of the railway line in Harfield, and family houses climbing west towards Bishopscourt. A two bedroom flat off Protea Road with a booked lift is a very different job to a house in Lynfrae with a long driveway, so we quote and crew them differently for you. We’ve been moving people since 2016 and we carry a 4.8 rating from 176 Google reviews.
We’re set up for the way Claremont actually moves. If you’re in a studio flat near Cavendish Square, our mini removal team is the one you want. If your house isn’t ready on transfer day, that’s what secure storage is for. One or two rooms travelling a long way is a job for part-load removals, and if a second car has to travel with you, we’ll arrange vehicle transport on the same booking.

How we as your localised Moving Team in Claremont make your move as affordable as possible
Moving company prices in Claremont vary a great deal, and you should know roughly what to expect before you commit to anything. The table below gives you a realistic sense of local and long-distance furniture removal costs around the Southern Suburbs. Every figure is an estimate: your final quote depends on how much furniture you have, access at both addresses, whether a big truck can get down the lane or the driveway, any specialty items, and extras such as packing or storage. Below are average moving company prices in Claremont by property size, with long-distance costs from Claremont to Johannesburg shown as an example:
| Property Size | Local Claremont Moving Prices | Long Distance Moving Costs |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Bedroom | R1,900 to R4,000 | R5,000 to R9,000 |
| 2 Bedroom | R3,500 to R6,500 | R9,000 to R16,000 |
| 3 Bedroom | R6,000 to R10,000 | R15,000 to R30,000 |
| 4+ Bedrooms | R9,000 to R16,000+ | R24,000 to R40,000+ |
Based on an average amount of furniture per home size and our current rate per cubic foot. Last updated 2 April 2026. Long-distance removals from Claremont are shaped by a wider set of variables than local moves, mainly distance (Claremont to Gauteng is one of the longest corridors in the country), road access, the time of year, and whether you take a dedicated truck or a shared load. The figures above cover typical moving company prices to and from Claremont, but an accurate quote can only come from one of our moving consultants.

What Can I Expect When Moving To Claremont?
Claremont sits in the middle of Cape Town’s Southern Suburbs, with Newlands and Rondebosch to the north, Bishopscourt to the west, Kenilworth to the south and Lansdowne to the east. The M3 runs down its western edge and the M5 down its eastern one, and Main Road carries most of the commercial traffic in between. Cavendish Square has anchored the shopping end since 1972, with Stadium on Main and Palmyra Junction alongside it.
The suburb splits in two. Upper Claremont is the western half, running up towards the mountain, and Lower Claremont is the eastern half, which takes in Lynfrae and Wyndover. Harfield Village sits east of the railway line off Lansdowne Road, and it is the part that catches most people out on moving day: narrow one way streets, cottages with no off street parking, and a shuttle vehicle more often than not.
The railway has been here since 1864 and Harfield Road station since 1931, which is why so much of the housing stock is old and close together. Listings run from roughly R1.5 million for a flat to nearly R7 million for a family house, and there are about two houses on the market for every flat. In practice a Claremont move is either a lift booking or a driveway, and it is worth telling your consultant which one you have when you ask for a price.
