Moeller made his ARCA Menards Series East debut in 2022 at Five Flags Speedway.

In 2022, Moeller made his ARCA Menards Series debut at the Milwaukee Mile, driving the No. 0 Toyota for Wayne Peterson Racing, where he would finish 27th.{{cite web|url=http://brock.lastcar.info/2022/08/arca-unknown-mechanical-failure-leads.html |title=ARCA: Unknown mechanical failure leads to massive impact for Alex Clubb |work=LASTCAR.info|access-date=August 2, 2023}} He would run three more races with the team, getting a best finish of fifteenth at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds dirt track. In 2023, Moeller would run two races for the team, retiring early at IRP to act as crew chief for the team's other entry and with handling issues at Salem.[https://www.racing-reference.info/driver-season-stats/moellna01/2023/A/ Nate Moeller – 2023 ARCA Menards Series results] Moeller would again race at Toledo in the season finale, where he would be running at the finish for the first time in his career; he finished the race thirteenth.{{cite web |url=https://www.arcaracing.com/2023/10/07/race-results-shore-lunch-200-at-toledo-speedway-2/ |title=Race results: Shore Lunch 200 at Toledo Speedway |website=ARCARacing.com |date=October 7, 2023 |access-date=April 10, 2024}}

Moeller expanded his driving schedule in 2024, running eleven races and scoring a best finish of fourteenth, coming at both Berlin and Toledo.

On October 30, 2024, it was announced that Moeller would return to WPR in 2025 as the crew chief of the No. 06 car with Brayton Laster driving the car full-time.{{cite web |first=Toby |last=Christie |url=https://tobychristie.com/nascar-regional/arca-menards-series/brayton-laster-running-full-time-2025-arca-season-with-wayne-peterson-motorsports/ |title=Brayton Laster Running Full-Time 2025 ARCA Season with Wayne Peterson Motorsports |website=TobyChristie.com |date=December 30, 2024}} However, in 2025, he did return to driving the wheel of the No. 06 for WPR, during the first three races for the ARCA East season. At the race at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway, he obtained his first top-ten finish.
