Fast, Local Removals From a Team That's Actually Based Here
Most "Epping movers" you'll find online are really sitting in Bellville, Maitland or somewhere out past the N1, quoting you a call-out fee just to drive in. We're not. FTH Transport is based at 28 Christian Ave, right in the heart of Epping — so when you search "mover near me" from a warehouse in Epping 2 or a flat in Pinelands, you've genuinely found the closest serious moving team to your door.
For over 15 years we've been loading, hauling and unloading across this corner of Cape Town — through busy market mornings at the Cape Town Market, around the loaded trucks queuing on Gunners Circle, and out to every residential pocket that surrounds the industria. We know these streets because we drive them every single day.
Right Here in Epping — Not "Servicing" It From Across Town
Epping is the largest and most centrally located industrial area in the Western Cape, first laid out in the late 1940s and now split by the M7 into Epping 1, Epping 2, Western Province Park and Viking Park. It's where Cape Town's food moves, where its goods are warehoused, and — increasingly — where families settle into the affordable, well-connected suburbs that ring it.
Being based inside that hub changes everything about how fast we can help you. There's no "we'll be there in an hour and a half." We're already here. A short hop from the Cape Town Market, a few minutes off the N7 and M5, and a stone's throw from Pinelands, Thornton and Goodwood. Proximity isn't a marketing line for us — it's our actual address.
Why Epping Locals Choose FTH Transport
Fast response, fast moving
Epping runs on tight schedules — produce gets sold by mid-morning, deliveries are booked to the half-hour, and a loading bay can't sit blocked. We built FTH Transport around speed: quick to quote, quick to arrive, and quick on the lift. We don't drag a half-day move into a full one.
15+ years on Cape Town's roads
Fifteen years moving people and businesses around the Mother City teaches you things you can't fake — which back routes beat the N1 at peak, how to time a move around market-morning congestion, how to wrap a glass-top desk so it survives a flight of stairs. That experience is the difference between a move that happens and a move that goes smoothly.
The right vehicle for every load — from a bakkie to a big truck
A single fridge doesn't need a five-tonne truck, and a full factory floor won't fit in a bakkie. We run a full range of vehicles so you only pay for what your move actually needs — a nimble bakkie for single items and tight residential streets, right up to a large truck for warehouse stock, office fit-outs and whole-house relocations.
Moving Services Built Around How Epping Actually Moves
Business & industrial relocations

Home & furniture moves
Whether you're moving into a freestanding home in Thornton, an apartment in Pinelands, or a family house in Goodwood or Parow, we handle residential removals with proper care: blankets, straps, careful loading, and a crew that treats your things like their own. It's the same careful approach behind all our furniture removals across Cape Town. With Cape Town property still in high demand and most local sellers buying again within the metro, neighbour-to-neighbour moves like these are exactly what we do best.
Single-item & same-day moves
Bought a couch off Marketplace? Need one appliance shifted from a Cape Town Market wholesaler? A washing machine moved across the suburb? Our bakkie service is made for the quick, affordable, no-drama single-item job — often same day.
Packing, loading & heavy lifting
Don't want to wrap a single box? We'll pack it. Got the boxes done but no muscle for the loading? We'll handle the lift. Take as much or as little off your plate as you like. Want it all handled? Our packing and wrapping service covers boxes, blankets and breakables.

Directions from key local spots
- From the Cape Town Market: a few minutes away — ideal if you've just bought stock or equipment and need it moved on the spot.
- From Pinelands: straight across the eastern edge of Epping, minutes from your door.
- From Goodwood / Parow: quick run down via Voortrekker Road and the M7.
- From the N1, N2, N7, M5 or R300: Epping's location at the meeting point of Cape Town's major arterials means we're easy to reach from almost anywhere in the metro — and just as easy for us to reach you.
Public transport runs strong through here too — Golden Arrow buses, minibus taxis, and Metrorail stations nearby at Langa and Bonteheuwel — but when you've got a load to move, you want a bakkie or a truck, not a train. That's where we come in.
