Afriworld Removals
Based on recent customer reviews, Afriworld Removals receives sharply divided feedback across its long distance moving service. Satisfied customers consistently mention professional crews, careful handling of furniture, strong communication from named team members, and affordable pricing that makes stressful relocations feel smooth. However, a recurring theme among unhappy customers involves significant damage to furniture during transit, late arrivals, poor accountability, and frustration around third party contractor arrangements through Intertrans. Complaints often highlight management dismissing concerns and a perceived unwillingness to take responsibility when issues arise during collection or delivery.

Do not recommend using for removals. Had to keep calling myself for arrival/ delivery time. Arrived 2-3 hours later for both collection and delivery. Very unprofessional- made the house extremely dirty during collection. Damaged the dishwasher, dining table and study table. Refused to take any responsibility for poor service. Some of the items were damaged during re- assembly which was paid for. Used my ladder and damaged that when loading truck. Probably the worst experience I’ve had with removals company. Thought it would be good to support local , small businesses- rather use a commercial company

We used Afriworld to move from Bryanston to Mosselbay. When our furniture arrived it had gotten wet along the way. I don't know where but I supervised packing in Bryanston and it was dry when loaded into the truck. The following items were severely damage in transit. - Wooden coffee table gauged - Leather lounge suite damaged - Lounge chair upholstery ripped - Coffee station valued at R40K damaged to a point it is unusable now - Wood dining table was sc****d and chipped - Bar fridge was dented and scratched - Work desk was destroyed - Broken glasses and cultlery. and, and, and. I think you get the picture We contracted Afriworld on the understanding that they use 3rd party contractors. However they assured us that they were a single contact point and took care of managing the 3rd party contractor. We have reported this damage to them with photographs as evidence. Sybil from Afriworld now says they only connect 3rd party contractors with us as the client and Afriworld takes no responsibility. So she **** when we approached them. Let's be generous and say she didn't lie then you still have to ask youself the question " surely Afriworld vets their 3rd party contractors?" Do yourselves a favour if you are moving and get a reputable firm.

During the covid-19 pandemic in 2020 I relocated from Boksburg to Howick in Kzn, I used Afriworld for the removal and they were absolutely fantastic, so naturall when I recently moved back to Gauteng from Howick I had no hesitation in once again hiring Afriworld to do the removal. I cannot believe how they went from being fantastic to absolutely terrible. The team that moved us had obviously never done a removal before and their supervisor sat in the comfort of his truck and played no part in the removal process. All of the boxes were damaged without exception; they were thrown into the truck. The damages and breakages were numerous, some of my furniture even had boot prints on them from being stood on! There is only one English word that describes this move: DISGRACEFUL! The Manager did not even take my complaint seriously.
