What does a Standard move include?

Our Standard move includes a Friendly Team to assist you on the day of your move with a reliable moving Truck / Vehicle.

We take great care in loading and offloading your belongings.

Our team uses moving blankets, straps and ties to prevent damage from occurring during transit. However, we recommend “executive wrapping” to protect your treasured possessions.

Complementary “limited insurance” coverage helps provide peace of mind in case of any unforeseen events during the moving process.

What is an Executive move?

Our executive move will include an onsite Manager on the day of your move to supervise the moving crew and assist in alleviating your move's pressure and stress.  

Our service is designed to give you peace of mind should you not be able to assist your spouse, parents, children or colleagues on the day of the move. Our Senior Managers serve as the main point of contact for your move, keeping you informed about the progress of your activity and addressing any questions or concerns you may have.

Their attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to manage various moving-related tasks contribute to a more relaxed move experience.

Do you offer protective wrapping?

Executive Protective wrapping is an additional service we offer. This is a great way to ensure the safe transportation of your belongings during the move.

At Help U Move, we understand that your belongings are not just items. They're a part of your life and hold sentimental value. That's why we are pleased to offer you the option of our professional protective wrapping service.

With this additional service, you can enjoy extra peace of mind, knowing that your treasured possessions will be safeguarded throughout the moving process.

How long will the move take?

The move's time depends on the move's size and the distance between the two locations of the move.

How should I prepare for a smooth and seamless move?

Have all furniture ready and all boxes packed and sealed before the HUM team arrives for the move.

Ensure you have double-checked your inventory list and that all your items are on the list to avoid additional charges for extra items loaded.  

We are making arrangements for children and pets to be at relatives or aftercare to avoid them getting bumped into or knocked by items being moved out of the house and being loaded.

Ensure all information has been given to the security office and the pin codes needed to enter estates and complexes on the moving day.

On the moving day, stay organized, keep a checklist, and oversee the packing and loading process. Before leaving, do a final walkthrough of your old home to ensure nothing is left behind.

How can I protect valuable items during the move?

Keep important documents, jewellery, and valuables with you during the move to avoid getting lost or damaged.

How early should I start planning for my move?

It's advisable to start planning your move at least two to three months in advance. This will give you ample time to sort through belongings, hire movers, and make necessary arrangements.

Do you move provinces?

Not at the present moment .

When booking a move through Help U Move, we can discuss your specific packaging needs and add the necessary packaging materials you require to your invoice. This will help streamline the moving process and ensure you have what you need to pack and prepare for your move.

Why do I need to complete an inventory list?

The Inventory list is essential for us to know what size truck and how many assistants will be needed for the move and offer you the best quote possible.

How will my load be protected in the truck?

We use moving blankets, straps and ties to prevent damage from occurring during transit, but we highly recommend the “Executive Wrapping” option for extra protection and peace of mind.

“Executive Wrapping” includes items wrapped with, for example, three layers of heavy-duty plastic wrapping, cardboard corner protectors, Bubble wrap, PVC sleeves, etc.

What exactly is a shuttle vehicle?

If you're planning a move and believe your property might pose access challenges, please discuss the potential need for this service with Help U Move during the planning stages.

A shuttle vehicle might be required when a regular moving truck cannot reach the property within 50m, or your security estate has a vehicle access limitation. The shuttle service involves transporting the items from the truck to the shuttle vehicle and then from the vehicle to the final destination or vice versa.

This process will involve additional labour and coordination to transfer the items safely.

It's important to note that removal shuttle services will come at an additional cost due to the extra resources and labour required to execute the shuttle process.

Do you offer Hoisting / what is Hoisting?

Yes, we offer Hoisting from a professional third party who assists at the highest level.

In the context of moving furniture, "hoisting" refers to a technique used to transport large or heavy pieces of furniture through windows, balconies, or other openings when they cannot fit through staircases, hallways, or doorways. This method involves using ropes, pulleys, or cranes to lift the furniture from outside a building and bring it into or out of a specific location.

Hoisting is often employed when traditional methods of moving furniture are impractical due to size, shape, weight, or the layout of the building. It requires specialized equipment and skilled movers to ensure the safety of both the furniture and the individuals involved. This technique is commonly used in urban areas where space constraints or narrow corridors make it difficult to move large items using traditional methods.

Before attempting hoisting, it's essential to evaluate the situation carefully, ensure the safety of the workers, and protect the furniture from potential damage during the process. It's also a good idea to consult with professional movers with hoisting experience to ensure a successful and secure furniture relocation.
