Professional Moving Company in Knysna | Verified by Excellent Reviews

Biggles Removals is a fully insured team of furniture movers working across Knysna and the wider Garden Route, and our furniture removals reach every part of town. Choosing the best moving company in Knysna is about more than the figure at the bottom of a quote. It is about handing your furniture to a team that arrives when it said it would, wraps everything properly and tells you the truth about timing. Biggles Removals has been moving Garden Route families since 2016, and the rating on our reviews was built on jobs exactly like yours.

We are set up for the way Knysna actually moves. A small flat heading along the N2 to George suits our mini removal team. A house that is not ready on transfer day is what secure storage is for. One or two rooms travelling a long way is a job for part-load removals, and if a bakkie or a second car has to travel with you, we arrange vehicle transport on the same booking.

How we as your localised Moving Team in Knysna make your move as affordable as possible

Most moves into and out of Knysna are long distance, so the table below is built on the two corridors we actually run: Cape Town to the Garden Route, and Gauteng to the Garden Route. 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. Shared load pricing is per consignment and suits holiday homes and smaller consignments, which is most of what moves on this coast:

Move Size Cape Town to the Garden Route Gauteng to the Garden Route
A few items, shared load from R2,500 from R3,500
Studio or 1 Bedroom, shared load R5,500 to R15,000 R6,500 to R12,000
2 to 3 Bedroom, shared load R12,000 to R28,000 R12,000 to R28,000
Full 3+ Bedroom, dedicated truck Contact your moving consultant Contact your moving consultant

Shared load prices are per consignment and assume your furniture travels with other loads going the same way, which is why they are the cheapest way to move a holiday home or a flat. Last updated 2 September 2026. The same figures apply in both directions on each corridor. The Cape Town corridor runs weekly and the Gauteng corridor runs to a schedule, so give your consultant your date early if you are moving in December or January. An accurate quote can only come from one of our moving consultants.

Knysna Moving Companies: Frequently Asked Questions

Send us your inventory or phone the office, and one of our Knysna moving consultants comes back to you with a written quotation. The quickest route is the online inventory form: tell us what is in the house, the two addresses and your preferred date. There is no charge and no obligation.
We cover Knysna and the wider Garden Route, including Thesen Islands, Leisure Isle, Hornlee, Old Place, Belvidere, Brenton-on-Sea, Rheenendal and Sedgefield. We also run the N2 west through George to Cape Town and east to Plettenberg Bay, and we move countrywide from Knysna to every major South African city.
Most Knysna moves are long distance, so the honest answer depends on the corridor. From Cape Town to the Garden Route a few items on a shared load start at about R2,500, a studio or one bedroom runs R5,500 to R15,000, and a two to three bedroom home runs R12,000 to R28,000. From Gauteng the same moves start at about R3,500, then R6,500 to R12,000 and R12,000 to R28,000. A full three bedroom home or larger usually wants a dedicated truck, and for that you should contact your moving consultant. Your final figure depends on volume, access and any extras you choose.
Most local moves in Knysna are finished inside a single day. A one or two bedroom home is usually loaded, driven and offloaded in four to six hours. A three or four bedroom house with a garage and a garden shed is a full day, and when we are packing for you as well we normally start the packing the day before.
Loading, transport, offloading, trained movers in Biggles uniform, blankets and protective wrapping, and goods in transit cover with R200,000 included free. Packing materials, packing labour, storage and vehicle transport are quoted separately so you can see what each one costs before you decide.
Tell your consultant on the day. Every Knysna move carries goods in transit cover, and a claim starts with a note on the delivery sheet, so please check your items before the crew drives away. We ask for photographs and the details of the item and we handle the claim from there.
Biggles Removals is a registered South African company, CIPC 2021/010371/07, with a 4.8 star Google rating and reviews you can read on HelloPeter. You get a written quotation on a letterhead, and the crew that arrives is our own staff in Biggles uniform rather than a subcontracted bakkie.
Two to three weeks is comfortable for a local Knysna move, and four weeks is safer over a month end, in December or at the end of a school term. If you need us sooner, phone the office rather than emailing, because we can often fit a small load in at short notice.
Yes. Every Knysna move includes goods in transit cover with R200,000 included free, and we carry public liability cover as well. If you own something unusually valuable, a piano, artwork or a gun safe, tell your consultant at quote stage so it can be listed and covered properly.
Yes. We can pack the whole house, or just the kitchen and the breakables, which is where most damage happens. We bring the boxes, tape, paper and bubble wrap with us and label every box by room, so the offload at the other end is quick.
Midweek is cheapest. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in the middle of the month are the quietest days for movers in Knysna, so there is more availability and more room to move on price. Month end, the last Friday of the month and the weeks either side of Christmas are the busiest and the dearest.
Yes. We move flats, town houses, farmhouses and homes on the estates, and we are used to an estate that wants a booking form and gate times before we arrive. Name the estate when you book and we sort the paperwork out ahead of the day.
Yes. Our mini removals service handles single items, studio flats and small loads, and it costs a lot less than booking a full truck. It suits a first flat in Riversdale, a single room going down to Cape Town, or one bedroom of furniture heading up to Gauteng.
Yes. Long distance removals are a large part of what we do out of Knysna. We run to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Port Elizabeth, East London, Bloemfontein and the Garden Route, with goods in transit cover the whole way and a consultant who tells you where the truck is.
Yes. A shared load, also called a part load, means your furniture travels with other consignments going the same way, so you pay for the space you use instead of a whole truck. It is the cheapest way to move one or two rooms from Knysna to another province. The trade off is the delivery window, which is a range of days rather than a fixed date.
Yes, and it is one of our busiest corridors. We run both dedicated trucks and shared loads from Knysna to Johannesburg, and the long distance figures in the price table above are the right starting point. Contact your moving consultant for a price on your own inventory.
Yes. Knysna already sits on the Garden Route, and we move east to Mossel Bay, George, Still Bay and Plettenberg Bay most weeks. It is a popular semigration run, and one where a shared load often makes sense because the trucks are already going that way.
Yes. We move offices, shops and small warehouses in and around Knysna, and we do most of it over a weekend or after hours so you lose as little trading time as possible. We handle desks, filing, servers and stock, and anything you are not ready for can go into storage.

What Can I Expect When Moving To Knysna?

Knysna sits on a warm water estuary fed by the Knysna River, which reaches the sea through a narrow channel between two cliffs known as the Heads. It is the seat of the Knysna Local Municipality inside the Garden Route District, and the N2 runs through the middle of town, about 72 km east of George and 25 km short of Plettenberg Bay. The town spreads a long way for its size, from the waterfront and Thesen Islands out to Leisure Isle, Belvidere and Brenton-on-Sea on the western side, and up into Hornlee and Old Place behind the centre, so two addresses in the same town can be a good drive apart on moving day. The streets matter too, because they are what a big truck has to negotiate, and several of the older lanes above the lagoon are steep and narrow. Indigenous forest runs about 20 km north before it gives way to fynbos on the Outeniqua slopes. If you are still weighing the move up, our How Much Does it Cost to Move to Cape Town guide, the Ultimate Moving Checklist and What Is Semigration are each worth ten minutes of your time.
