The Cost of Hiring Movers in Wheeling, IL

On average, it costs $343.04 to hire moving helpers in Wheeling, IL. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Wheeling, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $80.48.

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 Wheeling, IL is $821.47, with an average hourly rate of $89.28. 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.

Fine young men, very strong, very fast, and quite smart about how to move things as a team. They cleared out a closet that I couldn't reach anymore (I am a disabled veteran), and made sure I had the keys for the storage until. Big thanks to your hard-working and professional team.

We could not have been more pleased with the overall experience! From the upfront communications, the promptness of the (4) guys that showed up to their keenness of loading and unloading our moving truck. They were able to move items with no issues and look forward to using S & L Express Moving Services when we need them next!

My movers were amazing! Great communication with letting me know exactly when they would be there. They were on time and even a little earlier than expected. Came prepared with large rolling cart, they worked non stop and made sure all my fragile belongings were handled carefully. I would 100% use again, friendly, reliable service!
