Frequently Asked Questions – Moving Companies in East London

Moving company costs in East London range from R3,800 to R8,000 for a 1–2 bedroom local move, and R7,500 to R11,000 for a 3-bedroom home within the East London metro. Long-distance moves such as East London to Cape Town start from R9,000. The exact price depends on your furniture volume, distance, and whether you need packing services. Contact Biggles Removals for a free, no-obligation quote.
We recommend booking at least 2 to 4 weeks before your move date — and 4 to 6 weeks for month-end moves (25th–31st). East London moving companies fill up fast at month-end when most leases end. Booking early also locks in your price and preferred time slot.

Yes. Our professional packing team arrives with all materials — double-walled boxes, bubble wrap, stretch film, tape, and fragile stickers. We take special care of electronics, artwork, glassware, and fragile items.
Mid-month (5th–20th) moves are typically more affordable because demand is lower. Avoid month-end dates and public holidays when prices peak. Weekday moves (Monday–Thursday) are also cheaper than Saturday moves.

Provided we have all the information we need (full inventory list and the addresses moving from and to), you can expect to receive your local moving quote within an hour from sending your enquiry. Long distance moves are a little more complex, and quotes can sometimes take up to 24 hours.

Moving timelines vary dramatically based on your specific situation. A one-bedroom apartment move within the same city might take 3-4 hours, while moving a four-bedroom house from East London to Cape Town usually takes 2-4 days. Distance, load size, and site accessibility all play crucial roles in determining your timeline.

The cost depends on the size of your move, distance, access conditions, number of movers required, and whether packing or extra services are needed. Biggles Removals can provide a tailored quote based on your inventory and moving details.

Why more and more people are choosing to stay or move back to East London

East London is having a quiet renaissance. Buffalo City recorded house price growth of around 9.5% year-on-year in late 2025 — ahead of Cape Town’s 9.3% — as semigrants and first-time buyers discover what locals have always known: South Africa’s only river-port city offers beaches, schools and space at prices the big metros can’t match. Here is a closer look at what’s drawing people in.

The East London Estate Boom

The East London Estate Boom

Gonubie and Beacon Bay are the engine rooms of East London’s property market. Pam Golding reports the average Gonubie home sold for about R1.47 million in 2025, while Beacon Bay averaged R2.6 million — genuine coastal living at prices Cape Town buyers can only dream of. In the established estate belt, homes range from about R3 million in The Quarry to R8.5 million on Prince Alice Ridge, with Bishops Country Estate prices up almost 9% in a year. Freehold sales activity has nearly doubled since 2024.

Semigrants choosing the affordable East London coast

Semigrants Choosing the Affordable Coast

BusinessTech calls East London “the cheap city becoming a semigration hotspot” — and the numbers back it up. Buyers relocating here are mostly after freehold family homes, drawn by lower living costs, established schools such as Selborne College, Clarendon and Stirling, and easy access to healthcare. An $8 million port redevelopment and new retail investment in Gonubie and Beacon Bay are adding jobs and fresh momentum to the metro.

What a Move to East London Costs

What a Move to East London Costs

Knowing the numbers upfront makes any move calmer. A two-bedroom townhouse in Gonubie sells for around R850,000 — your rand simply goes further here. On the moving side, a local move within the East London metro typically ranges from R7,500 to R11,000 for a three-bedroom home; the shared-load trip from Cape Town starts from around R9,000, and Johannesburg from around R8,000. Long-distance moves are quoted on your exact inventory — our weekly shared-load schedule keeps costs well below hiring a dedicated truck.

The East London Semigration Index

The East London Semigration Index

Our booking patterns on the coastal lanes tell the same story: steady inbound demand into East London, with Gonubie, Beacon Bay and Nahoon among the most requested destinations. As a shared-load specialist connecting the Eastern Cape with Gauteng, Cape Town and KZN, Biggles often sees demand shifts before they appear in the property reports — and right now the arrows point to the Buffalo City coast.

What are Popular East London Suburbs that our Clients are Moving to?

While Cape Town continues to attract many new residents, rising property prices and the increasing cost of living are prompting more families, professionals, students, and first-time buyers to look towards East London and the greater Eastern Cape region. With more affordable housing, established schools, a strong employment market, and an attractive lifestyle, East London offers many people the opportunity to enjoy more space and better value without compromising on convenience. At Biggles Removals, we’re seeing growing demand from people relocating between the Western Cape and the Eastern Cape who are seeking the right balance among career opportunities, education, affordability, and quality of life. Having assisted countless moves along this corridor, we understand the unique needs of long-distance relocations and are committed to making every move simple, well planned, and completely stress-free.
