Definitely a great moving company. No problems what so ever. on-time and on-budget. The moving personnel are very professional and punctual. [name removed by Sirelo] at the Cape Town branch is a star and the moving team that assisted us. Management at Execu-move must be congratulated on a great team dynamic, something so rare to find in South Africa today. I see now why they voted best moving company in SA. We will definitely use them again. 5 gold stars Execu-move!

Execu-move moved my 78 year old mom to Port Elizabeth from Vryheid in KZN. The movers arrived perfectly on time and also delivered timeously. Their service was extremely efficient and the movers were very accomodating.

Fast and competent service. Best price out of 5 or 6 quotes I did.
Before the move all was well communicated.
The guys on site were fast and efficient while packing and unpacking.
Everything (appart from 2 small breakages - one glas side on a lantern and a pottery bowl) arrived in the same condition as it was packet.

Throughout the whole process, it was easy to communicate with the staff in the various departments. Everyone is more than willing to assist with any questions that go along with an international move.
The areas where they were not top experts, they refered us to the experts.
Now, it's just the long wait for the ship to come and deliver our goods.

From the first email with all the necessary documentation to the phone calls made to and from [name removed by Sirelo], we were treated with respect concerning our needs and expectations. [name removed by Sirelo] and his teams were on time, packed proficiently and worked fast but carefully. We had awesome service from start to end.
On time.
Great service.

Packing by Execu-move was not done properly and several problems occurred at that stage:
- the movers left loose items in drawers, filing cabinets, and closets, which were tossed around during the move and made it more difficult to unpack
- they used heavy duty tape directly on my wooden furniture, which damaged the varnish when was removed during the unpacking
- they chipped the ceramic stove top of the apartment that I was leaving and did not take full responsibility for it (I had to pay part of the replacement cost myself)
The groupage move took much longer than the usual time indicated at the time of booking: over three month and a half between packing and delivery!!! Execumove didn't inform me proactively of the delays and I had to find out by myself.

After all the reviews I thought that this would be a top notch company. I was a little disappointed as it felt like a average moving company nothing special not as everyone described on the website. They just did what any other moving company would do. Except they came late by over a hour from the supposed 10-11 time slot.
Right Price

I moved from Rustenburg to Fish Hoek, Cape Town. The pre move assistance from [name removed by Sirelo] was excellent. The day of the move the movers arrived on time and were very professional about everything. The delivery was also efficient and professional. I had no problems with any of the people regarding my move. After delivery I received a call from Lance checking in on any problems which may have occurred. I am extremely satisfied with the Execu-Move team.

I paid for wrapping, but my furniture had already been wrapped. Execu-move did not let me know, I called them after week and received a very defensive response from [name removed by Sirelo]. During the offloading process, the lovers damaged a newly plastered wall and they denied liability. Won't recommend Execu-move.
They arrived on the day they promised.

The quote was competitive and the packing and unpacking went well. No major damage to furniture. But a 2 big box were missing and some others had been opened and items were removed.

They tirelessly answered all our questions. They kept us up to date before, during and after the actual shipping out of our goods. When there seemed to be a hitch in the destination country, they went out of their way to organise and arrange to solve the probelms. We are happy and satisfied customers.
Friendly and helpful assistance

Initial contact was [name removed by Sirelo], who was helpful and friendly and patient with us in understanding this intense process. However then you deal with admin and it feels like they don't talk and then you get handed to Shipping and they weren't in the conversation with [name removed by Sirelo] so not always understanding us as client. Although paying for our own container they didnt pack into a container and the truck they brought did not fit everything so they had to come back even though they could see on day 1 how much was required, not great planning for a stressful process.
The shipping ended up being the half time told which meant paying 2 weeks of storage in pounds - not happy with that, although they think its great we asked for delays in SA if that would be the case so not to incur the hefty exchange rate. On top of that when we arrived our belongings could not be delivered due to the company not having availability. Then the delivery company outsourced the work and they were 4 hours late and I had to contact them and got attitude about it and then we had to unpack in the rain. They didn't lay carpets down to protect the floors, as requested and made a mess of walls and floors after I had cleaned it. The gentlemen were friendly but they made me do inventory and give feedback on their phone so you couldn't give honest feedback. The one gentlemen was very good, other was new to the work but fun and helpful and the main guy was a grump. We had about 8 items damaged. Three had to be thrown away and because of the fee you have to pay to claim it wasn't worth making a fuss. I think they could have wrapped some items much better. I was just grateful my most prized possessions made it without being damaged. I was also very happy that they unpacked all boxes and removed it all from the property. My suggestion is for one contact person and that Execu-Move could have done a courtesy call during the process or at least emails as the initial provider so that you feel your belongings are taken care of and it won't leave you wondering how things are going with your belongings.
I hope to not emigrate again, but if I do I would like the company that handles my life's belongings in a way I feel taken care of and understood. I think its just an element of customer service that was missing from the customer journey. You expect that company to understand what it means to the customer to have all their things packed and shipped for a long period of time.
