What Is Labor-Only?
When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. For in-town moves, this is known as local full-service.
Labor-only moving works differently. You handle the transportation (like a rental truck or PODS container) and we connect you with professional moving contractors to help load or unload your furniture and boxes.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it's considerably more affordable.

They were professional without being cold and uncaring, very hard working, considerate and extremely accomodating . I will use these gentlemen again...Thank You!
Very professional and efficient. Very respectful of my belongings . They were also very accommodating as I was moving from out of state and my timeline changed a little. Nice people - great job ... I highly recommend.
These guys were awesome! Excellent communication before arriving exactly in time. Worked hard despite the rain that came halfway through the job. Provided equipment to secure my belongings and took great care to insure everything was secure and efficiently packed. I would highly recommend them for any and all moving needs!
They actually got to my house a little early, which was nice, since the last guys I hired were late. Both were super nice!! Robert was very experienced, & I would use them again.
The guys were on time, prepared and very courteous. They were friendly and easy to be around. They were also extremely efficient and helpful. I would definitely recommend Bennetts Moving Services. My son's property made it safely in our rented Penske truck and nothing was damaged. Great job of loading and packing.
They were very prompt, very respectful and hardworking! They had a big job and handled it well. We were very pleased with our moving experience and would definitely use them again.
Ted and crew were great and while we used my trailer they brought blankets and other equipment to pad everything in transit to our storage unit. Will definitely call when the new place is ready to move back in. Also, on time if not five min early and completed within the time we’d scheduled.
Excellent crew. They were friendly and courteous. Very professional crew. They asked where we wanted each item and placed everything where we wanted it. They emptied 2x 16ft pods in under an hour. They put together the beds and made sure we were happy with everything before they left. We will definately use the guys from SMF Moving and Staging if we ever move again.
My movers were Casey and John. Extremely hard workers, fast yet very conscientious. They packed the truck with placement that would most benefit and protect my possessions. Very professional and very nice people. I highly recommend this company and this crew. Mike Sullivan Abingdon, Va.
Showed on time and completed job well within time frame. Also I had to reschedule several times due to our pods not being delivered on on and this company was very good to accommodate us.
these 2 guys were wonderful - it was snowing and freezing but they did a wonderful job and did it quickly. .they were on time and worked hard. I would use them again.
Efficient and courteous. Definitely knew what they were doing...we didn't have an inch to spare in our truck and they made it work. Great job, thank you!

All Creston movers listed on HireAHelper are required to provide standard repair coverage, which reimburses $0.60 per pound for damaged items. Some states may have different rules, and full-value protection is only required by the federal government for moves that cross state lines.
One of the advantages of booking with HireAHelper is that every move includes our $1,000 Service Guarantee. Plus, you can upgrade your protection by adding SmartProtectionâ˘âan optional coverage for labor-only moves that offers up to $10,000 in damage coverage, with multiple tiers to choose from.
Yes, professional movers will typically disassemble and reassemble furniture as part of the moving process. However, there are certain items that movers may not be able to disassemble. Learn more about how furniture disassembly and reassembly works when you hire movers.
One set of stairs is always included in your moverâs rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to get a quote and indicate the number of sets of stairs that you haveâmake sure to include stairs leading to a basement if you will have any items that need to be moved into or out of it. Read more about when movers charge extra for stairs.
You should start packing at least three to four weeks before your move, but the sooner the better. If you need to downsize or organize, we recommend starting that process 6-8 weeks before your move when at all possible.
Need to move in a hurry or don’t have time to pack? HireAHelper makes it easy to add professional packing as an add-on to your move. When available, you can get packing help for just several rooms or your whole home.
