Finding moving companies in Wellington on listings websites takes long hours of researching, repetitive phoning, leaving messages and most certainly getting an overpriced quote for your delivery.

Your delivery will then be transported in a half-empty van that will return home without a backload - for which you are expected to pay, resulting in:

A huge waste of your money
A wasteful journey
An environmentally unfriendly ride

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost?

Moving companies or independent movers price their hourly service differently - so there’s quite a bit of variation. However, Wise Move has compiled the average booking hourly rates across New Zealand.

The average moving companies hourly rates (usually 2-hour minimum booking)

Type of vehicle	1 man	2 men	3 men
Transit Van	$40-60	$60-90	$80-120
Truck	$50-80	$80-120	$100-150

The move isn't for a few weeks/months. How far in advance should I book a moving company in Wellington?

We encourage booking as early as possible. This is for you to reserve a space ahead of time, giving you peace of mind. Moving companies tend to book fast, so the closer you get to your moving dates, the less space there will be available. Booking in advance helps you hold the price and avoid any future price increase too.

I only have a small item/s to move. Do you have a minimum cost for moving?

There is no minimum cost to move items. Our carriers quote will be based on the item size/weight, distance from the collection to the delivery destination, and the transport providers proximity to the desired location.

How is a Wise Move mover partner vetted?

All Wise Move moving companies and movers must submit an identity document, proof of address, verify their mobile phone number and email address. Customers publish reviews after booking completion keeping it all accountable and respectful.

Does Wise Move provide insurance for my delivery?

Each Wise Move moving company or independent mover, have their own insurance policy and details which are stated on their profile.

All about Wellington

While the wind does have potential to take your breath away on the odd occasion, it’s pretty much 100% true that ‘you can’t beat Wellington on a good day’. As the Capital City of New Zealand, you’re more than likely to see your fair share of parliamentary members here on a daily basis - probably grabbing a trim latte from one of the city’s boutique roasters.

Art and culture also take a front row seat in Wellington. It’s home to the world famous Weta Workshop, the glorious Te Papa museum, and many annual events which make the city the perfect place to set up camp for creatives and lovers of food, wine, craft beer and of course - coffee.

The city encircles a busy harbour, and waterfront walkways stretch around most parts of the inner city, where white sandy beaches are just a hop, step and a jump from the bustling CBD. The outer suburbs each hold their own with boutique retailers, quirky cafes and friendly communities. So if cool is your thing - the ‘coolest little capital in the world’ might just be calling you home.

The most convenient way of getting multiple quotes from trusted moving companies in Wellington for your home move or single item move.

It’s a dilemma to move something valuable to you and have no experience shifting things, resulting in damage. So if you are looking for a trusted moving company in Wellington to help you with your home move, or if you have an item you need to deliver somewhere, Wise Move is a platform that can help you easily find a trusted mover to do the job. Forget about having to spend your valuable time browsing the internet to collect quotes from different moving companies across Wellington. Wise Move will do the job of gathering quotes from its network of reliable moving companies that have undergone a vetting process.

Create a delivery request on Wise Move, make sure to provide correct details about your transportation needs like the number and dimension of the item you need to move, where to pick up and deliver the item, and when you need the job done.

After that, we will notify all Wise Move’s registered and verified moving companies so they can send over their budget-friendly quotes for your moving job. We say budget-friendly because moving companies compete for your moving job and offer the lowest possible price so they get chosen by you. Also, if not most, some of them are already travelling to your route and are looking for more jobs to fill vacant spaces on their trucks, making them capable of offering a low price compared to the standard prices available outside of Wise Move.

Go over each quote - check the moving company’s reviews, ask them questions by quickly sending them a message if there is something you wanted to clarify, these can be easily done within the platform. And finally, after deciding which company to hire, accept their quote on the platform so you can leave a review for them after job completion. This keeps the moving companies responsible and respectful. This will also help future customers decide which company to hire, just as how previous customers have helped you.

Gather affordable moving quotes now from Wellington’s best-rated moving companies. It’s easy and free with the use of Wise Move.
