Find a lower price for the same move? We'll match it. You can book with the confidence that you are getting the best value for your move. Learn more.

The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

Even after factoring in the cost of a rental truck, gas, and supplies, labor-only moving usually costs less than half of what you'd pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenient—but that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.

 Labor-OnlyLocal-Full Service
Fayette, KY$374.13$1,199.20
Kentucky$474.00$1,199.20
The United States$451.87$1,167.76
Did you know? More than 1 out of 3 HireAHelper customers use their move helpers to load or unload their PODS container.

Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size

As mentioned above, it costs $374.13 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Fayette, KY, with an average hourly rate of $88.85. Your final price will depend on how long your move takes.

To get a better sense of what your move might cost, you can see the average cost for different-sized moves in the table below. Learn more about HireAHelper's methodology for calculating average costs based on proprietary data from over 1 million moves.

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.

I had a 26ft foot Uhaul with some heavy furniture. Jeff and Jordan were on time. Got that trailer empty and all of my son's stuff up 1 flight of stairs into his apartment within the 2 hours I hired them for. Amazing! I highly recommend. They were very easy to communicate with, were on time and didn't rest!!! Yay!! Thank-you!

They only unloaded me. They took pictures where the ones who loaded broke some of my things. They also actually took the time to fix furniture, drawers, and actually cared about my things. It meant a lot to me. I will recommend them to anyone moving and also will use them for any moving needs in the future!

Whenever you hire someone online there is a degree of risk involved. We had just moved to Kentucky and knew nobody to help bring in a truckload of household stuff into our new home. The crew was early, they were fast and nothing was damaged. We were delighted with the service and the respect for our belongings. I recommend them very highly and will use them on the next load.

We hired 3 men for 2 hours. The crew arrived within the one hour time slot and were prepared. They worked hard and loaded our belongings very well. They ensured that every inch of space was utilized in the container. They were very respectful of us and our property. We would hire them again without hesitation. The owner called to confirm everything went well, which was appreciated.

They were finished in about an hour. I suggest that Hire A Helper offer a two hour service and only charge for 2 hours. Maybe add a fair rate for travel if it is over 30 miles. Having to pay for 4 hours when I knew it would only take about an hour means I won't be using your company again.

The guys, Red, King & Ryan were wonderful to work with. Very friendly and helpful. They worked hard and helped get my house sorted quickly. On time, respectful of my belongings and knew what they were doing. I had a lot to go into a one car garage and they arranged all of the boxes so I could fit my car in there too! Super sweet and nice. My next move I am asking for them!

Real Advice from Fayette Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Fayette. (They’re really nice!)

"Lexington, Kentucky is a fairly simple town to live in. Moving in and out of residential areas is not as stressful as big cities... there is minimal traffic, and plenty of parking spaces to park moving trucks, especially when the university is closed during summer or winter breaks."

Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Fayette

You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Fayette.

 

The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:

  • Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
  • Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
  • Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move. 
  • Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
  • Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.

All Fayette 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 SmartProtection™—an 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 mover’s 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 have—make 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.

For helpful tips, step-by-step guides, and checklists, go to our packing hub.
