HireAHelper's Best Price Guarantee Find a lower price for the same move? We'll match it. You can book with the confidence that you are getting the best value for your move. Learn more. |
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 convenientâbut 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 | |
|---|---|---|
| Oak Lawn, IL | $376.36 | $979.97 |
| 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 $376.36 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Oak Lawn, IL, with an average hourly rate of $76.54. 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 | $318.58 | 2 movers | 2.2 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $366.71 | 2 movers | 2.4 hours |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | $427.97 | 2 movers | 2.7 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | $382.62 | 2 movers | 2.7 hours |
| 3 Bedroom House | $445.71 | 2 movers | 2.8 hours |
| 4 Bedroom House | $534.73 | 3 movers | 3.2 hours |
| 5 Bedroom House | $632.01 | 3 movers | 4.1 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 | â | â |
| Unloading Help | â | â |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |
Compare Costs for Additional Moving Options
Our Moving Cost Calculator can help you compare and estimate costs for local or long distance moves, across Labor Only, Full Service, and Moving Container moves. You can adjust the distance of your move and home size to compare prices and help plan your budget.
Once you've used the calculator to do your research, you can compare quotes from movers that are available and ready to help near you.

On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 334,922 verified customer reviews
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!
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. ??
Crazy fast, didn’t even take 2 hours for the guys to get 2 floors and 5 rooms into our pod. super professional and kind. even got to talk about lord of the rings a little bit. would 100% recommend to anyone.
Both of the gentlemen worked hard and fast. We were holding a garden planting day. I hired them to ensure we had enough help for the event. They were respectful and hardworking. They actually completed the job in about an hour and a few minutes. So grateful for their assistance. Would definitely hire again. Thank you
The main guy was awesome. I will not be able to spell his name correctly. He was great. Wonderfully helpful. He moving partner was a very whiney. I would not have him move me again.
Ricky and the crew arrived on time, well organized, great attitudes, professional and well mannered. They packed the POD container perfectly! Thank you!
These guys were a lifesaver. In a stressful time moving things out of my parents home, they stayed flexible all day to get the job completed and we were blessed to have them in our corner. I would recommend them over and over again. Their kindness made a difficult job much easier and I can’t thank them enough. Highly recommend.
John 3:16 Movers were great to work with! They were very accommodating, and I would work with them again. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable help with a move in the future. Thank you guys!
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.
Our crew did a fantastic job with all the stuff we had. They were careful, very professional and patient! We are very pleased and would recommend them and use them again in a heartbeat! Thank you and your team all for all your help! -Josh and Shantel
Chris and the Logan Lift crew did a fantastic job. They packed our home and loaded the moving trucks for us. Very careful, friendly and professional.
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.

You've got moving questions, weâve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Oak Lawn.
The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we canât find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicksâeven same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it. That means you donât pay extra to use HireAHelperâin fact, you may save money.
All Oak Lawn 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 SmartProtectionâ˘âan 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 moverâs 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 haveâmake 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.
