You post, free
Describe what needs moving in Palmerston North, add photos, and set your dates. Posting costs nothing and you are under no obligation to accept any bid.
Drivers bid against each other
ID-verified drivers send their own price for your job. A driver already heading through Manawatu-Whanganui may price it differently, because your job fits a trip they are making anyway.
You pay when you accept
You're charged when you accept a bid, and the payment is held securely until the job's done.
How SoundMove protects you
Built into every booking, not an optional extra.
Payment held until the job's done
Your money sits securely with SoundMove until the job's done. We release it to the driver when you confirm, or automatically 24 hours after they mark it done if you haven't raised an issue.
Tracked step by step
Every delivery moves through timestamped checkpoints, from confirmed to picked up to delivered, visible to both sides.
Message your driver
Once the job is booked, message your driver on the platform, so arrangements and updates stay in one place.
Verified drivers, real reviews
Drivers are identity-verified before they can bid, and carry ratings from the jobs they have completed.
What we deliver in Palmerston North

Access and parking
The city is laid out around The Square on the Manawatū River flats, so a driver crossing from Cloverlea to Whakarongo spends longer at the two doorways than on the road between them. If the address is a rear unit down a shared drive, say so and how far the carry is, because that is what a driver prices. If the flat is upstairs, say whether there is a lift or a stairwell. A load going out of town to Aokautere or Summerhill crosses the Fitzherbert Bridge. Ashhurst is a separate township along Napier Road, so a job there is a run out of the city, not a cross-town shift.
How SoundMove works, and what to ask anywhere else
Different jobs suit different options. Here is how ours works, and the questions worth asking before you book any of them.
| On SoundMove | Worth asking anywhere else | |
|---|---|---|
| Couch-sized items | Built for them. Post the item with photos and drivers with a suitable vehicle bid on it. | Check the size and weight limits before you book. |
| Who sets the price | Drivers set their own prices and bid against each other for your job. | Ask how the price is worked out, and what could change it on the day. |
| Payment protection | Your payment is held from the moment you accept a bid until the job's done. We release it when you confirm, or automatically 24 hours after the driver marks it done if you haven't raised an issue. | Ask when payment is due, and what protects it if something goes wrong. |
| Single items & small loads | Post just the one item. Each bid is for the job you posted. | Ask whether a minimum charge applies to a job this size. |
