Sirelo asks...

What makes your company stand out?

As a privately owned, independent company Biddulphs has a business philosophy of providing clients with an efficient professional service at an economical cost. Operating for over 98years, we have a strong and solid foundation with well trained staff and a reliable fleet. As the largest independent movers in South Africa, we aim to offer the most competitive service in the industry and can reach almost any corner of South and Southern Africa by road directly door to door and not subcontract.

What is your insurance policy? How do you deal with damaged items?

Unlike others in our industry who may only offer GIT with limited cover, Biddulphs offers all risk cover for domestic, office and international removals. More information is available on our website or one of our friendly consultants can assist you at any office.

What is the best advice you would give to customers?

It is important to thoroughly research your chosen removal company. We highly recommend researching past and current performance and independent reviews. Financial risk is also important when you pay for your move and we highly recommend you choose a strong stable company such as Biddulphs that goes through regular rigorous stress tests (e.gg. FIDI FAIM accreditations) and standards (e.g. AMOSA, BAR, IAM, ISO) checks to ensure we remain a leader in our industry.

Fantastic service from all involved. Great communication. Expected some unavoidable breakages but whole load arrived unscathed. From packaging team in Joburg, to delivery team in Perth, they made a potential stressful process, absolutely seamless. Thank you all!

What a wonderful review to read! Thank you for trusting Biddulphs with your relocation from South Africa to Australia. Keeping communication clear and delivering your belongings completely undamaged are our top priorities, so it is brilliant to know we hit the mark for you. Moving across the world is a massive milestone, and we are so glad we could make it a smooth experience from start to finish. Thank you for your kind words and appreciation for our Johannesburg and Perth teams. Enjoy your new home!

Best Start Baby NPO extends our sincere gratitude to Biddulphs for their outstanding service and generosity. From the moment we approached them, the team was professional, responsive, and willing to help. With no hesitation they acted immediately. Their staff ensured the safe and stress‑free transportation of our hospital‑grade breast pumps at no cost. They communicated with us every step of the way.
These pumps are more than equipment they help mothers provide life‑saving breastmilk to vulnerable babies. It is refreshing to work with a company that combines professionalism with genuine care for our communities and the organizations they serve.
Thank you, Biddulphs, for your kindness, professionalism, and commitment to making a difference. We highly recommend your services and are truly grateful for your support.

Big Thank you

Biddulphs International -Thank you!

We recently relocated from South Africa to Australia, and we could not be happier with the incredible service we received from Biddulphs South Africa. From the very beginning, when their team came to professionally pack our household goods, the service was outstanding. Every single box and item was carefully wrapped and packed with great attention to detail.
Our container was shipped in the first week of January, and everything arrived safely at our home in Australia in perfect condition. The team here unpacked our boxes, removed the protective packaging from our couches, chairs, and tables, and made the entire process so much easier for us. We also appreciated that they left certain items packed in boxes, such as books and things we do not currently need.
One item we were especially worried about was a large glass tabletop. Biddulphs built a custom wooden crate for it, and we were amazed and incredibly grateful that it arrived completely intact without any damage.
Nothing was lost or broken during the move, which speaks volumes about the professionalism and care of the entire Biddulphs team. A huge thank you to everyone at Biddulphs South Africa, as well as the staff and agents in Australia who handled everything on this side. Your service, communication, and professionalism were truly exceptional.
We can highly recommend Biddulphs South Africa to anyone planning an international move. Thank you for making such a stressful process such a pleasant experience!

Moved from Krugersdorp (South Africa) to Perth (Australia)

What a spectacular review! Thank you for choosing Biddulphs International for your move from South Africa to Australia, and for recommending our services so highly. Hearing that "nothing was lost or broken" is the ultimate reward for our teams, as we know how much care goes into packing, crating, and shipping a household across the world. We are so glad that our custom crating for your glass tabletop gave you the peace of mind you deserved, and that our Australian partners made the final arrival stress-free.
Thank you for your incredibly kind words about our professionalism and communication. We wish you every success and happiness in your new Australian chapter!

We have used Biddulphs over 45 years and 10 home moves and the recent move between Cape Town suburbs was as excellent as all others and I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Biddulphs for the friendly, attentive and professional services provided throughout.
