Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move

When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. 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 movers to load or unload your stuff.

While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably less expensive.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Los Angeles, CA

In Los Angeles labor-only moving help typically costs between $298.89 and $541.99. 

If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $73.41 an hour.

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.

These guys are the best of the best. I hired them for 2 hours. They came in, saw what needed to be done, packed 2 full pods, and were done in that timeframe. It was impressive how quick they worked and how efficiently they got it done. Easily would recommend these guys to anyone.

Both workers were fantastic. They took extra care for my furniture and property. Ivan called me to let me know they arrived early. They took their time to wrap all my furniture and moved everything slowly to assure there was no damage.

The two men from Rigo's did a great job. They were courteous, careful, and efficient. They packed things into my pod in a very professional manner that indicates they have done this before. Everything was still in place and still in one piece when I got the container again, after moving multiple states away.

Real Advice from Los Angeles Movers

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

"Please make sure to contact your pick-up and drop-off administrations for guidance on any parking permits necessary during the move or POD placement, since the movers are not responsible for parking permits. Other than that, the general rule of thumb is to make sure the truck or a POD have enough parking space with a close access to the pick-up or drop-off facility."

V&V Moving Profile Image - V&V Moving

"If you live in a highly-populated area like downtown Los Angeles or Hollywood, it's always best to secure parking a day before your move to avoid long carry. Not only do some movers charge for long carry, but it will lengthen the time of your move and will consequently cost more than it should have."
