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, itās considerably more affordable.

397 Franklin Grove Mover Reviews
On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 331,378 verified customer reviews
Both of the movers from J.C. Movers were fantastic. They were a few minutes late, but jumped right in assessing my items, and began loading the truck. It took longer than expected, but no one complained, and they packed the truck so well that the only item broken was one I dropped when I arrived at my new destination. I would definitely recommend them to others.
I had a 16 ft truck, and they had it loaded in hr! I had most of the stuff in a garage accessed by an alley, but there were items also still in the house.2
The team was on time and ready to work. Did everything asked of them with a great sense of urgency. They did all this while also being very careful and respectful of our belongings. Thanks again.
Called ahead of time saying that they would be about 30 minutes late so they were considerate. Did what they were supposed to do in a timely manner. Polite and professional.
Tyrone and Larry were professional, helpful, and fun too! They moved more furniture in two hours than a houseful of friends would have moved in a day and I didn't have to buy them pizza! I would recommend them to anyone who is moving.Rick B., DeKalb, IL
I was very impressed with the professionalism of my moving team. I was very skeptical, but will hire them again in an instant and highly recommend them!
The crew showed up on time and hustled every minute until they were complete. They were very professional and listened to direction on where to put the boxes. I would highly recommend this crew!
They were on-time and even a little early, worked efficently and did a great job! I would be glad to work with Illinois Valley Moving Labor in the future!
Did a great job ! Friendly, professional, helpful and respectful. Got the job done within the time frame. If you need a mover, Call ALLSTAR MOVERS !
The guys from Allstar did a fantastic job with our move! They were friendly, well-prepared, and they accomplished a lot in a relatively short amount of time, and made the most of the space we had in the truck (seriously, it was like a game of Tetris). I would absolutely recommend, they’re very hard workers.
These guys were the best hardest working 3 guys. I would recommend this company to everyone. They went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied.
The helpers were professional and courteous and very careful with the move. They were at the site on time and finished their work in a brisk and safe manner. Thank you.
