Full-service is definitely more convenientābut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Houston, GA | $430.76 | $1,084.64 |
| Georgia | $430.76 | $1,084.64 |

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.

These guys were awesome they work hard they get the job done in no time I recommend them highly this is my second time using these guys they are very respectful will use them again if I need to.
This team was phenomenal. They were extremely professional, fast and careful with my belongings, so much better than the original movers I used. I highly recommend this team.
Kenny and David were efficient, careful, and just generally nice, laid-back guys. They asked us our preferences when they weren't sure what we wanted, and they did a fantastic job even having to navigate a high, steep stairway. We are incredibly appreciative to them for taking so much of the stress out of this move. Thank you!!
These young men were very hard working....and so nice and respectful! Would definitely use again. They helped us so much.
Excellent !!!!!! They were exceptional, taking care with my furniture and belongings. They were diligent, courteous and timely. The worked quickly and very hard. Extremely helpful with making great suggestions on how to pack my belongings. I recommend them highly and will be hiring them in the future. Overall Outstanding !!
These two guys were great. They were on time to the job and both guys were respectable. They went above and beyond what we expected of them. I HIGHLY recommend Precision Moves to anyone who needs help moving. They are well mannered and very clean but are not afraid of hard work. I will be using them again when I need help moving furniture.
These guys were GREAT! Extremely efficient and knowledgeable about moving my belongings and placing them into the POD. They were also very courteous and professional. Will definitely call them for my next move to empty the POD.
Very nice guys, newer to the role so they went a bit gingerly, but listened to requests / placement instructions very thoughtfully, and treated our belongings as if they were there own. Manager called often to update / check on progress. We would hire them again!
The moving team arrived when they said they would. They worked extremely hard in hot weather. They worked well with our family as we also helped move smaller items. I would recommend them.
Blue Movers contacted me days before move for further details, kept in touch on time of arrival, arrived on time, was very careful and finished as expected. Highly recommend!
They were on time, did a great job loading our furniture, they were very careful not to hit walls or scratch furniture, We would definitely recommend them, they were a life saver. We really did not think we would find anybody New Years Eve day. But they were there. Thank you so much!!
I really appreciated the help - communicative about scheduling confirmation and showed up on time, worked hard, and enjoyed chatting. I reccommend for your moves.

One set of stairs is always included in your moverās rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more.

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.
