Northern Suburbs Moving Company and Furniture Removals: Professional, Insured & Affordable

Moving into the Northern Suburbs, or out of them? Biggles Removals is a fully insured team of furniture movers working right across the Tygerberg belt, and our furniture removals and moving services run into Cape Town every day. What most moving companies underestimate here is the gate: half the addresses in this belt sit behind an estate boom with contractor sign in, and a truck waiting at a gatehouse is a truck that is not being loaded.

Professional Moving Company in the Northern Suburbs | Verified by Excellent Reviews

The Northern Suburbs are not one kind of move, because they are not one kind of place. Bellville began in 1861 as a railway stop twelve miles out of Cape Town, and grew into the metro’s second business district, so the older belt through Parow, Goodwood and the Bellville CBD is narrow streets, on street parking and walk up flats. Durbanville was a Company watering hole called Pampoenkraal thirty six years before that, and the belt that grew around it is estates, booms and gatehouses. A two bedroom flat off Voortrekker Road and a four bedroom house in a Durbanville estate are different jobs, and your quote should say so before the truck is booked.

We’re set up for the way the Northern Suburbs actually move. If you’re sending a student room down to Cape Town or across to Stellenbosch, our mini removal team is the one you want. If your transfer date and your move in date don’t line up, that’s what secure storage in the Northern Suburbs 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 car has to travel with you we’ll arrange vehicle transport on the same booking. Every Northern Suburbs move is booked through our Cape Town branch.

Moving Company Services Across the Northern Suburbs and Cape Town

Whatever you are moving out of the Northern Suburbs, there is a service sized for it. Our moving services run from a single item collected in Parow to a full home relocation out of a Durbanville estate, with the same crew standards and the same goods in transit cover on every one.

🏠 House & Flat Removals

Full households from the Bellville flats through to the estate houses in Durbanville and Brackenfell, loaded, secured and offloaded into place at your new address.

🏢 Office & Commercial Moves

Offices, practices and shops around the Bellville CBD and Tygervalley moved after hours so you are trading as normal again the next morning, fully insured.

🚐 Northern Suburbs 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 Town Storage

Secure storage between transfer dates, with your inventory listed and sealed so nothing is guessed at when it comes back out.

🛣️ Long-Distance Removals

Closed trucks and experienced drivers running to Johannesburg, Pretoria 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 boat trailers moved on the same booking as your furniture, so a single crew handles the whole relocation.

How we as your localised Moving Team in the Northern Suburbs make your move as affordable as possible

Moving company prices in the Northern Suburbs 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 across the Tygerberg belt costs, and what the runs into Cape Town and up country cost. Every figure is an estimate: your quote depends on the volume of furniture, access at both addresses, whether the estate needs contractor sign in at the gate, any specialty items, and extras such as packing or storage.

Property Size Local Northern Suburbs 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 7 September 2026. The Northern Suburbs sit inside the City of Cape Town about 20 kilometres from the city centre, so a run into town is priced as a local move rather than a regional one. Long-distance removals from the Northern Suburbs 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 Northern Suburbs move is booked through the Cape Town branch. For an accurate figure, contact your moving consultant.

Frequently Asked Questions About Moving in the Northern Suburbs

Local Northern Suburbs moves start from around R1,900 for a one bedroom flat and run to about R16,000 for a four bedroom home, with the exact figure set by volume, access and how far the truck can stand from the door. Long distance moves out of the belt, to Johannesburg or Pretoria for example, start from about R5,000 for a one bedroom load. The table above sets out the full range, and a written quote pins it down.
For us the working belt is Bellville, Parow, Goodwood, Durbanville, Brackenfell, Kraaifontein, Kuils River, Edgemead, Monte Vista, Bothasig, Panorama, Plattekloof and Welgemoed, with Tygervalley in the middle of it. If your address sits near the edge of that list, ask anyway, because the crews cross it every working day.
Constantly, and it is the single thing most worth telling us at quote stage. Estates in Durbanville, Brackenfell and Kraaifontein usually want contractor sign in at the gatehouse, some cap the vehicle length, and a few only allow moves inside set hours. Give us the estate name and we will confirm the rules before the truck is booked rather than at the boom.
Two weeks is comfortable. Month end and the last week of a school term are the busy windows here, because so many moves in this belt are tied to a transfer date or a school enrolment. If your date has moved on you, call anyway, because being inside the metro makes short notice easier than it would be out of town.
Yes. Saturdays are a normal working day for our crews and Sundays can be arranged. Estate rules are the thing to check first, because a fair number of complexes here do not allow a move on a Sunday at all, and that is a decision made at the gate rather than by us.
Yes, and it is a short run. Bellville sits about 20 km from the city centre on the N1, so a move into town is usually a single morning with one crew and one truck rather than a full day. Traffic on the N1 in the morning peak matters more to the timing than the distance does.
Yes. Our mini removals service exists for exactly that, whether it is a single room, a fridge and a lounge suite, or one item going to family. You pay for the vehicle and the space you use rather than a full truck.
Yes. If your transfer date and your move in date do not line up, we can hold your goods in secure storage and deliver when you are ready. Everything is listed and sealed going in, so nothing is guessed at coming out.
Yes. Goods in transit cover is included on every move we quote, local or long distance. If you are moving anything unusually valuable, say so at quote stage so it is listed properly rather than assumed.
Yes. Bellville is the metro’s second business district and the offices, practices and shops around it and around Tygervalley are regular work for us. Being inside the city means we can load after hours and have you trading normally the next morning.
A one to two bedroom move within the belt is generally a morning. A three bedroom house is most of a day. Gate access, lift access and how close the truck can stand to the door are what add time here rather than distance, so the honest answer comes once we have seen both addresses.
Two different problems, depending which half of the belt you are in. The older grid through Parow, Goodwood and the Bellville CBD is narrow streets, on street parking and walk up blocks. The newer belt through Durbanville and Brackenfell is booms, gatehouses and estates that cap vehicle length. We check the offload address before quoting so a shuttle vehicle is priced in rather than sprung on you.
Yes, and it is some of our steadiest work. The University of the Western Cape, Cape Peninsula University of Technology and Northlink College all sit in this belt, and a room of furniture and a few boxes does not need a truck of its own. Ask about our mini service or about sharing space on a scheduled run.
Yes, on a regular long distance schedule rather than a one off charter. You can take a dedicated truck for your load alone, or share the space on a scheduled run and pay a share of the cost. Both carry goods in transit cover.
Yes. George, Mossel Bay, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay are all covered, routed through Cape Town. It is a common retirement move out of this belt and we run it often enough to quote it properly.
Yes. Melkbosstrand, Yzerfontein, Langebaan and Saldanha up the coast, and Stellenbosch, Paarl and Wellington inland, are all a normal working day from here. The Northern Suburbs sit between the two, which is why we run in both directions out of the same depot.
Yes. We deliver boxes, tape, paper and bubble wrap before the move so you can pack at your own pace, or our crew can pack the whole house for you. Unused boxes are simply not charged for.
Yes, and it is worth saying so when you book. Walk up blocks around Parow, Goodwood and Bellville are common, and a third floor carry changes the crew size rather than the distance. Tell us the floor and whether there is a lift and the quote will be right the first time.

Other Western Cape Regions We Serve

The Northern Suburbs are part of the City of Cape Town, gathered around the Tygerberg hills about 20 km from the city centre, where the metro’s second business district sits alongside a wine valley older than it is. That mix is why the belt works as a base for us. 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.
