  • 5.0 out of 5 stars

    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.

    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!

    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

    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!

Home moves from Tawa to Eastbourne and up the Kāpiti Coast

RelocatioNZ is based in Wellington and moves homes across the region: Te Aro, Mount Victoria, Newtown, Island Bay, Miramar, Karori, Khandallah, Johnsonville and Tawa in the city; Petone, Wainuiomata and Stokes Valley in the Hutt; Whitby and Titahi Bay in Porirua; Paraparaumu and Waikanae on the coast.

Communication, care, completion

Three words on the stamp, and how they play out on moving day

Dan runs the trucks and the sales, so the person who quotes your move is the person who shows up. The crew protects walls, door frames and furniture on the way out, which counts when a bond inspection follows. The job finishes when the truck is empty and you have the hours in writing.

The short answer

RelocatioNZ is a Wellington residential moving company covering Wellington City, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt, Porirua and Kāpiti. Two movers and a truck cost $210 per hour including GST, one mover and a truck cost $135 per hour, and moves start from $315 for a 1-bedroom flat and $525 for a 3-bedroom house.

Home moving questions

How much do movers cost in Wellington?

RelocatioNZ charges $210 per hour for two movers and a truck, and $135 per hour for one mover and a truck, both including GST. A 1-bedroom flat starts from $315 and a 3-bedroom house from $525 with easy access. Stairs, long carries and tight parking add time, so send your item list and access details for a firm estimate.

Do your prices include GST?

Yes. All residential prices on this site include GST. Many Wellington moving companies advertise hourly rates plus GST, which adds 15% when the invoice arrives. Our $210 per hour for two movers is the full hourly figure you pay, and Dan confirms your estimate in writing before the booking is locked in.

Which areas do you cover for home moves?

All of Wellington City, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt, Porirua and the Kāpiti Coast, with Wairarapa moves over the Rimutakas on request. Moves out of the region, such as Wellington to New Plymouth, Nelson or Auckland, are priced as intercity moves with a fixed quote instead of an hourly rate.

How do I get an accurate moving quote?

Send Dan a list of your larger items, a rough count of boxes and the access at both addresses: steps, lifts, driveway length and where the truck can park. Photos or a short phone video help most. With that, Dan can tell you how many hours and movers the job needs.

Can you move me out of Wellington altogether?

Yes. RelocatioNZ runs intercity moves from Wellington to places like Palmerston North, Napier, New Plymouth and Auckland, and across Cook Strait to Picton, Nelson and the West Coast. Those moves get a fixed price quote, and you may pay less if the truck already has a job heading your way.
