The Cost of Hiring Movers in Cowlitz, WA

On average, it costs $383.68 to hire moving helpers in Cowlitz, WA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Cowlitz, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $81.97.

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 Cowlitz, WA is $825.81, with an average hourly rate of $122.45. 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.

They showed up on time. Even though I didn’t need them for the entire 2 hours, they offered to do anything else I might need. I appreciated that offer, but it wasn’t required. I just needed help with big pieces of furniture. I would definitely recommend them.

The move couldn’t have been better! The movers arrived on-time, they looked over everything and after preparing pieces needing “shrink wrap “ or pad’s, they carefully loaded everything efficiently. I would use this Moving Company and it’s employees again and recommend their service to anyone moving and looking for competent help!
