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 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 | |
|---|---|---|
| Wilmington, IL | $399.56 | $1,126.40 |
| Illinois | $408.32 | $1,085.66 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $399.56 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Wilmington, IL, with an average hourly rate of $82.76. 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.
| Home Size | Average Cost | Average # of Movers | Average # of Hours |
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | $327.20 | 2 movers | 2.1 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $376.63 | 2 movers | 2.3 hours |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | $439.56 | 2 movers | 2.7 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | $384.03 | 2 movers | 2.5 hours |
| 3 Bedroom House | $447.35 | 2 movers | 2.7 hours |
| 4 Bedroom House | $536.70 | 3 movers | 3 hours |
| 5 Bedroom House | $634.33 | 3 movers | 3.8 hours |
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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $$$ | $ |
| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | ā | ā |
| Unloading Help | ā | ā |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |

On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 335,210 verified customer reviews
What a fantastic moving experience! They were reasonably priced and provided an efficient, personable and hard working crew who actually finished sooner than I expected. They also took great care with my items when packing and unpacking. I'd definetly use them again!
Got off to a rough start because I didn't read contract thoroughly. Had turned away but called them back they cane back and did their job. Didn't quite follow our loading preferences but got everything done in 2 hours with 4 guys.
Arrived within time frame stated. Very professional and worked with us to get done in a timely manner resulting in a 3 hour assistance instead of four. Unfortunately your policy does not allow for refunds if they finish early. ??
Victor and Don (I think that was his name) were awesome. They were very communicative when arriving and they even were able to come earlier. They were very polite and conscientious when moving my mom's furniture being careful not to scratch items. I'd highly recommend them. They made our move so much more pleasant and efficient. Worth every penny spent. Very reasonable prices.
Logan Lift Express did an amazing job with my move! The movers were on time, professional, friendly, and very careful with my furniture and belongings. They worked hard, finished quickly, and made the whole moving process much less stressful. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable movers. Thank you, Logan Lift Express!
Tyrone and helper Donell were very experienced movers. They were careful, well prepared and extremely personable and professional. I would use or recommend in the future.!! Thanks guys!!????????
Ricky and the crew arrived on time, well organized, great attitudes, professional and well mannered. They packed the POD container perfectly! Thank you!
Tyrone and Darnell did a great job unpacking our pod! They were very careful with our furniture and boxes. They made sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it. I would highly recommend them!
We had two guys do the loading of our two 16 foot Pack-Rats. My wife was leaving for work when they showed up and we were moving some items into her SUV. They immediately offered to help even though that wasn't part of their job. They were professional and polite for the whole job (with yes sirs and no sirs) and I'd definitely highly recommend them.
This is the second time I’ve hired John 3:16 Movers and would recommend them to anyone. The team works fast yet carefully, and does an excellent job with visualizing where things need to go in the moving van/pod. This job was for loading a storage pod and things fit perfectly like a puzzle - the team unloading at the other end commented on how well everything was stacked. I would use them again!
Great experience. Tyrone and his helper showed up exactly on time, finished the move quicker than expected and did a flawless job. I would definitely hire them again.
I had 3 crew members come help me move out of 2 story house. Not only were they extremely respectful, and nice. They just did an amazing job. Handling everything with care, and great with organizing. 100% recommended

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