Bigger loads usually want a third mover, which Dan prices in. Fixed price within 1 working day.
Get my Palmy priceYour fixed price covers loading, about 140 km north, unloading and the drive back to Wellington.
If Dan has a paying load coming home from Manawatū, the return leg costs you less.
About 2 hours up SH1
The truck heads north through Transmission Gully, along the Kāpiti Expressway past Paraparaumu and Waikanae, through Ōtaki and Levin, and into Palmerston North. That is about 2 hours in a car outside peak traffic.
Short enough that most moves load and unload on the same day. Dan allows about 2 hours to load and 2 hours to unload, and the drive is about 2 hours each way. A loaded truck is slower than your car, so plan to meet us at the new place a little after you expect.
Students, families and Palmy locals heading south
Students going to Massey
A room or a small flat fits on the truck with space to spare. Book early for the start of semester.
Families moving for space
A Wellington house price buys a bigger section in Manawatū. We move the whole house, plus the trampoline and the shed gear.
Palmy to Wellington
Moves heading south can fit in as a backload after a northbound job, which can lower your price.
Loaded by us, driven by us, unloaded by us
Your things go on our truck in Wellington and stay there until the crew carries them into your new place. The only furniture on board is yours.
Picking up or dropping off in Kāpiti or Levin?
SH1 runs straight past Paraparaumu, Waikanae, Ōtaki and Levin. Add a stop to collect a piece of furniture from family, or drop part of the load, and Dan will build it into your fixed price. Moves with two or more addresses are no problem.

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!

The short answer
RelocatioNZ moves homes from Wellington to Palmerston North in one truck with one crew, door to door. The drive is about 140 km, roughly 2 hours up SH1, so most moves finish in one day. You get a fixed price inc GST within 1 working day. Call Dan on 027 364 9590.
Wellington to Palmerston North moving questions
How much does it cost to move from Wellington to Palmerston North?
There is no standard price, because an intercity move can run from a single mover with a part load to a three-person crew and a full truck. Your price depends on how much you are moving, the truck and crew it needs, stairs or long carries at either end, and whether Dan has a return load. You get a fixed quote within 1 working day, so the total does not change on the day.
Can you move me to Palmerston North in one day?
Most moves, yes. The drive is about 2 hours in a car, which leaves time to load in Wellington and unload in Palmy the same day. Large houses or tricky access at either end can push it to two days. Dan tells you the plan when he quotes.
Do you move students to Massey?
Yes. A student room or small flat is a quick load. Book early for the weeks before semester starts. Hostel and flat moves in Palmerston North both work, and a backload on the same run can bring the price down.
Do you cover Feilding, Ashhurst and Levin?
Yes. Feilding and Ashhurst are a short drive past Palmerston North, and Levin sits on the way. Put your full address in the quote form, with notes on steps or rural access, and Dan will price the move from your Wellington pick-up to the new door.
Are my belongings insured?
RelocatioNZ does not carry goods in transit insurance. The crew wraps and blankets your furniture and treats it as their own, but cover for loss or damage sits with you. Check with your contents insurer that your things are covered while they travel between Wellington and Palmerston North, and list any valuable items before moving day. Tell Dan about fragile pieces so he can plan how to load them.
