The residents of apartments in Aro Valley and in Barnard Street in Wadestown had to evacuate their homes after the two separate slips yesterday morning.
A council spokesperson said they would not be able to return to their homes until early next week when engineers could assess the properties.
They said a slip closing the Pass of Branda, which links Wellington suburbs Seatoun and Breaker Bay, would also not be cleared until later today, with rubble still needing to be removed.
A slip around Princess Bay has been cleared and the road reopened.
