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 | |
|---|---|---|
| Jacksonville, FL | $327.54 | $870.60 |
| Florida | $399.36 | $1,048.76 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $327.54 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Jacksonville, FL, with an average hourly rate of $78.72. 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 | $287.47 | 2 movers | 2.1 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $330.90 | 2 movers | 2.3 hours |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | $386.18 | 2 movers | 2.6 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | $371.73 | 2 movers | 2.6 hours |

| 5 Bedroom House | $598.18 | 3 movers | 4 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.

Absolutely awesome crew. Masters in the game of Tetris. Very professional and efficient. Handled everything with care. 100% recommended. A+ Gentlemen. Thank you for making a stressful time easier.
Prestige Moving did a wonderful job. They were quick, efficient and helpful throughout the move process. I would recommend them and plan to use them for a future move.
Dell and Ron did a great job! The team was very professional. They came on time and finished the job within the time. They did a great job packing the truck ,and organizing the furniture and other stuff in the truck. Everything was handled with care,and I am very happy with this crew. I highly recommend these guys!Thank you !
I have never used a loader for moves of this type and it was amazing to see how experienced they were. Both gentlemen were professional and polite and they managed to complete the load in the time initially quoted. It was a great experience and I won’t hesitate to do it again!
These guys are fantastic! They helped me move in 3 years ago, and now have helped me move out. The POD had to be placed at the far end of the apartment complex parking lot, but they took it in stride and did an amazing job. They are fast, efficient, and super pleasant. Highly recommend!
I habe not been able to say that Ive had amazing movers until working with South Bound Moving! They were incredibly professional, personable and hard working! I truly wish I could have brought them up to TN to help me unpack! If you want an effortless move, please use South Bound. It was a great experience.
Alex and Blake did a wonderful job for us. Extremely efficient and polite, they helped us so much. Both are Veterans and boy does it show. We would absolutely use you guys again and HIGHLY recommend them!!!
What an amazing crew! They were so quick, and extremely careful with my things. I would 100% use them again and recommend them for others considering moving labor help.
They did a wonderful job. They got 2 of my pods done under their recommended time. They even waited for my second pod to arrive. They were reasonably priced. Extremely kind and careful with all items.
We had a great experience with the two-man team that unloaded our PODS container today. They were on time, very professional, and took great care handling all our household items. I would use them again every time!
Real Advice from Jacksonville Movers
"If you're moving between June and November, be prepared for heavy rains and possibly hurricanes. If your moving date is flexible, consider moving to Jacksonville during the dry season. Hurricane risk will be lower, tourism traffic is lighter, and your moving cost will be lower. Moving costs go up in the summer months when most people are moving."
- Jax Moving Solutions
"If you are moving locally in and out Jacksonville, Yulee, Fernandina beach & St. Augustine area be sure to take the 295 Beltway or I-95 interstate highway to connect completely through these local areas."

All Jacksonville 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 SmartProtectionā¢āan 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 moverās 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 haveāmake 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.
