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, itâs considerably more affordable.

For starters, I had great communication with Paul and I felt like we were already friends by time we met in person. The workers were punctual and friendly. I was comfortable giving them basic instructions and then just letting them do their job. They are good at what they do and they know when to ask questions. If I need help in the future I will call them again.
Amazing job. Arrived exactly on time, communicating their ETA when they left for our home and again when got closer. The guys were very thorough and went above and beyond for us. Will absolutely be hiring them again when we need to unload our storage unit. Highly recommended.
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!
Marty and Tyler were on time, went straight into moving mode for a small house in Boone. After the U-Haul was loaded, they followed it to the new house and were equally efficient. They even went the extra mile to move a twin bed mattress and love seat into a loft that had only a ladder for access! I will definitely use them again, especially if I need to move the love set from the loft. :-)
A Christian Touch helped me with loading a moving truck. This is the second time I have used their services and I highly recommend them. They are a friendly, professional, and fast moving company. I was impressed with the level of care the put into making sure your items are stacked appropriately to prevent damage.
Christian Touch Services saved the day! After driving a rented 26 foot moving truck 900 miles we were ready for help to unload. The guys were on-time and treated our property with care. The truck was unloaded in just under two hours. They did a fantastic job and I will be calling them again once our home is finished and ready to move in. Don M.
The men were very polite and helpful. I was amazed at their fast pace and the care they took with our belongings. The day we moved the wind chill was negative 25!!!! You would never know it by watching those guys! I will use this company again and recommend them to friends and family
The guys were on time (despite an hour and 40 minute commute just to get to my place), efficient, and friendly! It took them less than 45 minutes to unload an 8x8 container and bring everything up a flight of stairs to the apartment. I would definitely use them again!
These guys were rockstars! On time, respectful, courteous, handled items with care, communicated every step of the way, worked very hard, completed job on time. They really checked every box you could ever come up with for a moving crew and some. Would recommend to anyone and will use them again in the future. Thanks to Jacob and the whole crew.
I highly recommend Ted O'Keefe! They were on time, took care of my stuff and even helped fix a couple of pieces that had been damaged in previous moves. Got me loaded quickly and moved to my new house quickly. Did a great job packing the truck to maximize space. I would definitely choose him again!
All 3 of our team was exceptional! Never did a minute go by when they weren't working hard. They were careful with everything and made sure to ask about where things went, how could they help us more and overall they were exceptional!
These guys were great!! They were on time, professional, courteous and very accommodating. I can’t say enough. I would use them again and so should you.

HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it.

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.
