Moving Service Brandwacht

Brandwacht homes sit on big plots, and big plots mean big houses. 4 or 5 bedrooms, a double garage, a granny flat out back and a garden full of pots. Moving here is a full day’s work.

Eikestad Vervoer works out of Stellenbosch. Brandwacht is about 3.4 kilometres from the middle of town. 8 minutes, give or take.

So if it’s a 5-bedroom on the hill or a smaller place lower down, we plan the whole day before we arrive.

Here’s why people in Brandwacht call us, and how we get to you.

We’re old enough to remember when you found a mover in the back of the Eikestad Nuus and hoped for the best. If you’ve lived in Brandwacht a while, you remember it too.

Moving In or Out of Brandwacht

Brandwacht sits on the south side of town, next to Paradyskloof and below the Brandwacht trails. Tree-lined streets and family homes with proper gardens.

Brandwacht Road and Le Seuer Road wind around the slope, and the homes higher up look out over the valley.

Plenty of homes here have been in the same family for decades. That means a lot of furniture, and a lot of it is solid wood.

Families move here for the schools and the space. Mediclinic Stellenbosch and the Die Boord shops are close, and town is 8 minutes away.

And when the kids leave, people move out. A 5-bedroom with an empty wing turns into a townhouse in Die Boord or a cottage closer to town.

Moving Services in Brandwacht

Home Moves

Some Brandwacht homes sit high up with steep driveways and big views. Others are flat and easy. Tell us which one you’ve got when you call.

Where the driveway’s steep, we park where it’s safe and carry from there. Our team has decades of experience, so a steep driveway is a normal day for us.

We bring a vehicle big enough for the whole house, garage and granny flat included.

Got a pool area or a big patio? The outdoor furniture and the heavy pot plants need a spot on the truck too. Tell us about them when you call.

Furniture Removals

Giving the kids the dining room suite? Moving a piano and a sideboard to a smaller place? We’ll move it, as long as it’s 2 or more items.

Heavy, old pieces get wrapped and carried properly. Gran’s imbuia cabinet arrives in the same condition it left.

Moving a piano? Tell us where it’s going, upstairs or down. Pianos are heavy, and they need the right number of hands.

Selling the big stuff before you downsize? Do it before moving day. Every piece you sell is 1 less piece to carry down that driveway.

Office Moves

Brandwacht has offices too, like Trumali Forum on Trumali Street. If your business is moving in or out, we’ll move it.

Desks and computers come along too. Pick your back-to-work date and we’ll plan from there.

Plenty of people in Brandwacht work from home now. If that’s you, the home office is part of the house move, desk and filing cabinet included.

Packing and Wrapping

We wrap furniture before it leaves the house, so your dining table arrives without a mark on it.

Packing a big house is a lot. Want us to do it? Ask when you call. If you’re doing it yourself, start with the garage. It always takes longest.

Got a double garage full of tools and old boxes? Sort it the weekend before. Whatever you’re not keeping, get rid of before moving day, so you’re not paying to move it.

And at the other end, we’ll help place every item in the room it goes in. Just ask.

Getting From Central Stellenbosch to Brandwacht

From town we take Dorp Street to Piet Retief Street and head south. Then it’s Dorpsig Road and Kronendal Road, onto Brandwacht Road and up into the suburb. About 3.4 kilometres, roughly 8 minutes.

Piet Retief Street and the roads around the schools get busy at drop-off time. So we plan our arrival for after the morning rush.

It’s a short drive, so on moving day we’re at your house early and most of the day goes into loading.

Heading out of Brandwacht to Somerset West or Cape Town? We join the R44 on the south side of town and go from there.

Access and Parking Tips for Brandwacht

Clear the driveway the night before. If there’s a car in it, we’re carrying from the street.

Steep driveway? Mention it when you book, so we bring enough hands for the carry up.

Brandwacht streets are quiet and wide. Ask a neighbour to leave the kerb outside your gate free for the morning.

Moving into a house higher up? Check the access road for low branches. Tree-lined streets look lovely until a truck needs to get past.

Moving at the end of the school term? Book early. School holidays are a popular time for family moves.

Moving at month-end? Book at least a week out. Those dates fill up first.
