Montagu Moving Company and Furniture Removals: Professional, Insured & Affordable
Moving to Montagu, or leaving it? Biggles Removals is a fully insured team of furniture movers working the R62 and the Langeberg valleys, and our furniture removals and moving services run through Cogmanskloof in both directions every week. What most moving companies underestimate here is the way in: the gorge is 6.5 kilometres of river road with a 15 metre tunnel blasted through Kalkoenkrans, and it is effectively the only practical route from the Cape Town side. A vehicle that will not fit through it does not reach your house.
Professional Moving Company in Montagu | Verified by Excellent Reviews
Montagu is not one kind of move, because it is not one kind of town. It was laid out in 1851 on the farm Uitvlugt and named after John Montagu, Colonial Secretary of the Cape, and the street grid that followed in 1860 still runs the way the wagon roads did, along the rivers. Long Street and Bath Street carry more than a dozen declared heritage properties between them, and the R62 runs straight down Long Street, so the most historic address in town is also a regional through route. North of that sits the Koo valley, a working fruit district of apples, pears, apricots and peaches. A cottage in the old core and a farmhouse up the Koo are different jobs, and your quote should say so before the truck is booked.
We’re We are set up for the way Montagu actually moves. If you are sending a room down to Cape Town or across to Robertson, our mini removal team is the one you want. If your transfer date and your occupation date do not line up, that is what secure storage is for. One or two rooms travelling a long way is a job for part-load removals, a full house going up country is a long distance removal, and if a second vehicle has to travel with you we will arrange vehicle transport on the same booking. Every Montagu move is booked through our Cape Town branch.

Moving Company Services Across Montagu and the Langeberg
Whatever you are moving out of Montagu, there is a service sized for it. Our moving services run from a single item collected in Bath Street to a full farmhouse relocation out of the Koo valley, with the same crew standards and the same goods in transit cover on every one.

Full households from the Bath Street cottages to the farmhouses up the Koo, loaded, secured and set down in place at your new address.
🏢 Office & Commercial Moves
Shops and offices along Long Street moved after hours, so you are trading as normal again by the next morning, fully insured.
🚐 Montagu Mini Removals
One room, a few items or a student load, on a smaller vehicle so you pay for the space you actually use and not a whole truck.
🛡️ Protective Wrapping & Packing
Blankets, strapping and full wrap for lounge suites, mattresses and glass, packed by the crew before anything leaves the house.
🏪 Cape Winelands Storage
Secure storage between transfer dates, with your inventory listed and sealed so nothing is guessed at when it comes back out.

Closed trucks and experienced drivers running to Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban, with goods in transit cover on every trip.
🚚 Countrywide Shared Loads
Share the truck space on a scheduled run and pay a share of the cost, which suits small flats and single items over distance.
🚗 Car and Vehicle Transport
Cars, bakkies and trailers moved on the same booking as your furniture, so one crew handles the whole relocation end to end.

Moving company prices in Montagu 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 what a local move around Montagu and the Langeberg costs, and what the runs down to Cape Town and up country cost. Every figure is an estimate: your quote depends on the volume of furniture, access at both addresses, whether a heritage frontage limits where the truck can stand, any specialty items, and extras such as packing or storage.

Based on an average amount of furniture per home size and our current rate per cubic foot. Last updated 8 September 2026. Montagu sits about 185 kilometres from Cape Town on the R62, roughly two hours, so a move to the city is priced as a regional run rather than a long distance one. Long-distance removals from Montagu are influenced by a wider set of variables than local moves, primarily distance, road access, time of year, and whether you opt for a full load or a shared load. Longer hauls are quoted on our Cape Town to Johannesburg route, and every Montagu move is booked through the Cape Town branch. For an accurate figure, contact your moving consultant.

Montagu sits on the R62 in the Langeberg Municipality, part of the Cape Winelands District, where the Keisie and the Kingna meet below Bloupunt and the hot springs have been drawing people since the 1870s. Rock climbing, Muscadel and dried fruit all bring people to the town, and people who come eventually move house. Moves into the city are booked through our Cape Town branch, longer hauls north follow the Cape Town to Johannesburg corridor, and you can start anywhere from the Biggles Removals home page.
