Your office move, planned room by room
The plan gets your staff from their old desks on Friday afternoon to the right new desks on Monday morning.
Site visit
Dan walks both offices with you, counts desks, cabinets and meeting room furniture, and checks lifts, stairs, the loading dock and parking.
Colour-coded labels
Each team or room at the new office gets a colour and each desk a number. Staff label their own crates and chairs, and the crew places them to match the floor plan.
Packing schedule
Your staff pack their own desks by a set time. Archive boxes and shared areas get packed in the days before. RelocatioNZ does not hire out crates or sell boxes, so line those up yourself or ask Dan about the packing service, which is $175 an hour including GST plus materials.
Move window
Most offices move after 5pm on a Friday or over a weekend, so the phones are live again on Monday morning.
Office move rates
Bigger crew
$75/hr
Extra movers ($65.22 + GST) each. For larger offices and tight move windows.
Book a site visitPrices shown include GST. Your invoice shows GST separately so you can claim it back. Office moves are quoted after a free site visit. After-hours and weekend work is charged at the same hourly rate.
Lifts, loading docks and flat-pack desks
Goods lift access
Office buildings on The Terrace, Willis Street and Customhouse Quay usually need the goods lift booked with building management. A shared passenger lift slows each load.
Loading dock or street
A dock at basement level is quick. A loading zone on Lambton Quay during the day is short-stay and busy, one reason evening moves suit CBD offices.
Desk types
Sit-stand desks and big workstations often need dismantling and rebuilding, which the crew handles.
Floor changes
A move from level 3 to level 8 in the same building still takes trolleys, corridors and lift time.
Staff readiness
Desks packed and labelled by Friday lunchtime keep the invoice smaller.
Three steps to a working Monday
Book the site visit
Pick a time for Dan to see both sites.
Approve the quote and plan
You get a written quote, the move date and time, and the labelling system to hand to staff.
Move night
The crew loads, moves and places furniture and crates by colour and number, ready for your IT provider to reconnect.

5.0 out of 5 stars
We enlisted the services of Dan and his Team for our shift from storage in Palmerston North to present our property prior to going on the market in Belmont, Lower Hutt We could not praise Relocationz more highly . The shift included very fragile items and also extremely heavy items accumulated from five generational properties. We personally found the prospect of getting our 'treasures' out of storage after 10 years particularly daunting, however the "Relocationz" Team didn't blink an eyelid. They arrived in Palmerston North at 10am and the furniture had been placed in the double storied house in Lower Hutt by the end of the day. We also called on Dan and his team member to assist with reloading and stacking our container after various items had been re-packed. They also offered to take items to the Salvation Army for us, which we were hugely appreciative of as we were under a particularly tight time-frame. The property has since successfully sold and we will once again enlist the services of Dan and his Team with regard to vacant possession prior to settlement. Thank you Dan and the Team at 'Relocationz' Megan and Richard Lower Hutt

WOW!! Much deserved 5 stars. Dan and his team are prompt, have very clear communication and overall hard workers. I would recommend these guys over anyone else, if you want the job done properly and efficiently with no hassle, hire them. Moved an entire house just over 2 hours.

Update 06.09.26- I have used Relocationz ltd for my 3rd move and they were great yet again! I’ve used Relocationz for both my moves now and they’ve been great each time! Speedy and reliable, a great service. The second move was done a steep zig zag path and they were so helpful and managed it without a problem! I’ve recommended them to friends and will definitely use them again when I next move. Dan and David were friendly and had great communication too!

5 stars isn’t enough! Absolutely incredible service. I am so grateful to have found such a trustworthy, efficient and even affordable moving company. It was relatively short notice too and they fit me in. They smashed the job, quickly and safely. They were kind, easygoing and professional! Thank you so much, Dan, for moving my house. Would recommend you in a heartbeat!

Office moves across Wellington, the Hutt and Porirua
We move offices in the Wellington CBD, Thorndon, Te Aro, Newtown and Johnsonville, in Lower Hutt's city centre and Petone, in Porirua city centre, and in Paraparaumu. Past commercial jobs include moves for Kowtow Clothing, Dunbar Sloane Auctioneers, He Herenga Kura Housing and Waimea Vintage.
The short answer
RelocatioNZ moves offices in Wellington, the Hutt, Porirua and Kāpiti, with after-hours and weekend moves so staff can work on Monday. Two movers and a truck cost $210 per hour including GST ($182.61 plus GST). Each office move starts with a site visit, a written quote and a colour-coded labelling plan.

Office moving questions
How long does an office move take?
A small office of around ten desks with good lift access often moves in one evening. Larger offices, dismantled workstations, stairs or a long carry from the street add hours. Dan gives you an estimate of the hours and crew size after the site visit, so you can plan the move window with your building manager.
How does colour-coded labelling work?
Each area of your new office gets a colour, and each desk or room gets a number on the floor plan. Staff put matching labels on their crates, chairs, screens and drawers. The crew reads the label and puts each item in its spot, which saves your team hours of sorting on Monday.
Can you move us between floors in the same building?
Yes. Moves between floors follow the same plan as a move across town, minus the drive. The crew books time on the goods lift through your building manager, protects the lift and corridors, and places furniture on the new floor by label.
Can you move our office over a weekend?
Yes. Weekend and evening office moves are available so you avoid a day of closed doors. Book early, as Friday night and Saturday slots fill first, and check your building's rules for weekend access and security passes. There is no weekend surcharge, so the hourly rate is the same as a weekday.
Do you supply crates or moving boxes?
RelocatioNZ does not hire out plastic crates or sell boxes. Source crates from a hire company a week before the move, and allow one to two crates per desk plus extra for shared files and the kitchen. If you would rather not pack at all, the packing service is $175 an hour including GST plus materials.
Who disconnects the computers and phones?
Your IT provider disconnects, packs and reconnects computers, screens, servers and phones. RelocatioNZ is a moving crew rather than an office fit-out team, so that side stays with your own provider, and we move the packed equipment with the furniture. Book your IT provider for the morning after the move, so the desks are in place when they arrive.
Out on Friday, working Monday. Book your site visit.
