Your Local Newlands Moving Company | Home and Mini Removals
Your local Newlands moving company — handling full house removals, mini moves, and office relocations across Newlands and its surrounding suburbs.
Cape Removals has been moving Western Cape families since 2012, and Newlands — green, wooded and famously the wettest suburb in the city — is a Southern Suburbs favourite of ours at the foot of Table Mountain. Our crews know the difference between a steep flag-stone driveway off Paradise Road, a double-storey Victorian on Palmboom Road and a modern townhouse near the sports grounds. With Newlands Forest on one side and the cricket and rugby stadiums on the other, it draws families and professionals year-round, and we help plenty of them settle in each month.
We move throughout Newlands: Newlands Village, Paradise Road, Palmboom Road, Dean Street, Kildare Road, Protea Road, Boundary Road, Union Avenue, the Newlands Forest edge and the Sans Souci and Bishopscourt borders.
Every local move travels in a fully enclosed truck with blankets and strapping, and Free in-transit insurance + Free protective wrapping for your fridge is included on all local furniture removals in the Western Cape. Packing, protective wrapping, dismantling and reassembly, and storage near Newlands are available as optional extras.
What we move:
- Full Home Removals — anything from a 2-bedroom home upwards.
- Mini Moves & Small Load Removals — a cost-effective option for one-bedroom flats, bachelor apartments, students, or a single item of furniture.
- Long-Distance Removals — Newlands to all major South African cities, including shared-load moving where you only pay for the space you use.
Moving house is one of the more disruptive things a family goes through, so it’s worth knowing exactly what your removal company brings to the job before you book. Get in touch with a Newlands consultant for a free quote.

Thanks to Sue and the team. My move went smoothly, nothing was damaged, and the crew were polite and well organised all day. Moving house is usually stressful — this wasn't. I would definitely recommend them and use them again.

Newlands Mini Removals & Small Load Moving Service
Cape Removals Mini Movers is a small-load mini removals service for people moving in and around Newlands and the wider Western Cape. We run mini removals every day — from a single item to a full two-bedroom flat — across Cape Town, the West Coast, and throughout the province.
The service is made for smaller homes, flats, and bachelor apartments, where a full-size removal truck is higher running costs than the move actually needs. Because we price based on the size of your load and the time it will take, rather than a flat rate, you only pay for what you’re moving.
Local knowledge is what makes it work. We have removal teams based across the Western Cape, so reaching Newlands takes less time on the road — which keeps both your moving day and your quote shorter. Whether you’re shifting a few rooms across Newlands or relocating to the other side of the Cape, our mini removal service is a quick, responsive and affordable way to get it done.

We move families across the southern suburbs every week — so whether you’re arriving from Claremont, settling in Rondebosch, or heading down the M3 to Constantia, you’re in safe, local hands. Here are some of the nearby areas we serve:
Moving to Newlands: Your Local Area Guide
Tucked under the eastern slopes of Table Mountain about 8 km from the Cape Town city centre, Newlands is one of the southern suburbs’ most established addresses — green, wooded and famously the wettest suburb in the city. Whether you’re relocating here or moving on, our team knows the narrow lanes, the mature oaks and the access quirks that make each move run smoothly.
The neighbourhoods we know
Newlands is compact but varied. The village around Dean Street and Kildare Road mixes cottages with modern townhouses; Paradise Road and Palmboom Road climb toward the forest with steep driveways and mature gardens; and the flatter stretch toward Boundary Road and Union Avenue holds larger family homes and apartment blocks near the sports grounds. Newlands borders Claremont to the south-east and Rondebosch to the north, so most local moves here are short-haul.
Sport, forest and lifestyle
Newlands is best known for its sporting grounds — Newlands Cricket Ground and the rugby stadium have anchored the suburb for generations — while Newlands Forest offers walking and running trails straight off the M3. Cavendish Square in neighbouring Claremont covers day-to-day shopping, and Constantia is a short drive over Wynberg Hill.
Schools, access and moving days
Families move to Newlands for schooling: SACS, Sans Souci Girls’ High and the Kildare and Barkly House pre-primaries are all within the suburb, with UCT a short walk or drive up the M3. Access is easy off the M3 and Main Road, but the older streets are narrow and heavily treed — we plan truck size and parking in advance, and prefer mid-morning starts to avoid school-run congestion on Campground and Palmboom Roads. Need a mini move or a full house removal? Both run from the same local depot.
Newlands Removal Company Services: Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a moving company in Newlands cost?
The average cost of relocating a 2-bedroom apartment in Newlands is between R2500 – R4500. A 3 bedroom move usually ranges from R4500 – R8000, and a 4 bedroom can go up to R12 000. For a firm, tailored figure, request a free quote online.
How long does a move take?
Most local Newlands moves are quick — a 2-bedroom home usually takes half a day, though a steep, treed driveway off Paradise or Palmboom Road can add time for careful loading. A larger family home typically runs a full day. Request a quote and we’ll give you a realistic time window for your street.
Do I need to empty my freezer before moving?
Unfortunately, yes — please empty and defrost your fridge or freezer before moving day. Movers generally won’t transport an appliance with food inside: an undefrosted freezer can leak in the truck and damage your own belongings or another customer’s load on a shared run. Switch it off about 24 hours ahead and leave the door ajar to dry.
Which areas of Newlands do you cover?
We cover all of Newlands and the surrounding southern suburbs, including Newlands Village, Paradise, Palmboom, Dean Street, Kildare and the Newlands Forest edge — plus neighbouring Claremont, Rondebosch and Rosebank.
Do you offer mini or small-load moves in Newlands?
Yes — our mini removals are popular with Newlands’ students and young professionals near UCT and the sports grounds. They’re ideal for a one-bedroom flat, a cottage or even a single item: you only pay for the space and team you need, which keeps a small move affordable.
Can you handle long-distance moves from Newlands?
Yes — we collect long-distance loads from Newlands for the weekly shared-load runs to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban and Gqeberha. You pay only for the space your furniture occupies on the truck, which keeps an up-country move affordable. Take a look at our long-distance removals or ask for a route quote.
Is my furniture insured during the move?
Every local Newlands move includes free in-transit insurance, with additional cover available for higher-value or long-distance loads. Everything is wrapped and secured in a fully enclosed truck, and your consultant will talk you through the options when you book.
Do you provide packing materials and a packing service?
Yes — we supply packing materials and offer a full packing, protective-wrapping and dismantling/reassembly service. Take as much or as little as you need: many Newlands families pack their own boxes and leave the fragile items and furniture to us.
Do you offer storage in Newlands?
Yes — secure storage is available for Newlands moves, short or long term. It’s popular with UCT students and academics between terms and families whose transfer dates slip. Just mention it when you request your quote.
How do I get a quote and book my Newlands move?
Fastest is an online quote or a WhatsApp. We confirm the price, lock your date and assign a Newlands consultant who knows the steep, treed driveways off Paradise and Palmboom Road — then we run the move to the day.
