How your load is picked up

Our trucks have a curtain-side body. The curtain slides open along the side of the truck, so a forklift can load pallets from the side as well as from the back. That saves time at the dock and keeps pallets in one piece.

If your site has a forklift or a loading dock, tell us when you ask for a quote. If it does not, tell us that too, and we will plan the pickup around it.

What makes a load ready for transport

Pallets should be wrapped and stable, with the heaviest items at the bottom. Loose items that can slide or fall off the side need to be boxed, crated or strapped together first. Nothing leaves the yard until it is secured.

Not sure how heavy it is? A rough figure is enough to get a quote, and our guide on estimating the weight of your load shows you how to get there.

Common questions

What is the smallest load you will move?

We move loads from 1 ton up to 10 ton. We do not take parcels or a handful of small boxes.

Do you move goods outside Gauteng?

Yes. We are based in Brentwood Park, Benoni, Gauteng, and we transport goods anywhere in South Africa.

Can you load with a forklift?

Our curtain-side body opens along the side, so a forklift can load from the side or the back. Tell us if you have a forklift or dock on site when you request a quote.

How much does it cost?

Every job is priced on its own: the distance, the weight, the access at both ends and the date all change the price. Call or WhatsApp us the details and we will quote.

What information do you need for a quote?

The pickup and delivery towns or suburbs, what you are moving, roughly how heavy it is, and when you need it moved. Photos help.
