The Cost of Hiring Movers in Merrillville, IN
On average, it costs $341.40 to hire moving helpers in Merrillville, IN. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Merrillville, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $83.38.
These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.
The Cost of Full-Service Moving
The average cost of a local full-service move in Merrillville, IN is $943.43, with an average hourly rate of $121.09. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.
Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

These nice, friendly, capable gentlemen did a great job of moving our stuff, both extremely efficiently in terms of time and packing it extremely efficiently in terms of space without compromising the safety of our items. Thanks guys!
Tyrone and his partner were excellent. They called to let us know when they would arrive, and were very professional the entire time. They were able to evaluate the items we had to load, and get everything loaded very quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend this crew!
Lavoe Movers was the best experience with movers I've ever had! They were on time, incredibly careful with all of my things, and very respectful. I would absolutely use them again!
This team is fantastic. They arrived on time and made the moving process run so smoothly. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of move help!
KJ and James were so helpful! They arrived early, stayed an extra hour to finish the job, communicated well, and everything was expertly packed. None of our furniture or boxes had budged an inch after a six-hour drive.
Ganga Movers were fantastic from start to finish. They arrived exactly on schedule, kept us updated every step of the way, and unloaded our belongings with impressive speed and care. Even Chicago’s unpredictable traffic was not a problem; the crew adjusted on the fly and still finished ahead of time. Highly recommended for anyone seeking efficient, reliable movers in the city.
Don and Victor were amazing for our move! They worked hard for the entire time we had them. Very kind and proactive with asking where we would like our belongings. When the time comes for us to move again we will absolutely be booking with this company again!
They were very communicative about when they showed up and showed up within the expected window, got to work quickly, handled my things with care and were very professional. Would 100% recommend.
This was such an excellent experience. J and Richard were absolute all-stars. They were punctual and prepared. Worked extremely hard without taking breaks, insanely good at packing things in as efficient as possible while still keeping things safe from breaking. Would 100% recommend them!
Logan Lift Express did an amazing job helping us move out of our apartment! They were professional, careful, efficient, and creative when our stuff did not easily fit in our moving truck. We would highly recommend them and look forward to using them again in the future.
Literally life savers they (Victor and Ricky) did everything on time, on budget, and absolutely killed what was a pretty difficult move. 10/10 would hire again.
They were on time and they were very careful with everything they handled very professional. they were very nice and respectful to us definitely would use them again.
