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, itās considerably more affordable.

Great communication leading up to the move. The movers arrived as scheduled, & did a great job, with a positive, friendly attitude. Recommended!
They did a very good job. They were on time and very respectful of my property. My only issue is that I think they should have secured my property better by using rope that I had available. I hope my things don't shift too much. I would recommend them and I would use them again.
LOVED them will use them again. got excellent reviews back from the customer. professional and one time and great communication! will use them again!
Arrived on time, finished early and took care unloading our container. All of that on top of changing our dates due to a container delivery delay. We find Hire-A-Helper to be a great company to work with!
John and Spencer were crazy... In two hours had the 26' truck loaded and packed solid, these guys are legit. They were professional and skilled well beyond expectations, I literally thought I was hiring helpers but they are full blown moving professionals. I literally could not have pulled this off without them.
I can not say enough positive words about the gentlemen that unloaded the uhaul and carried the boxes up all those stairs. They worked quickly, they were polite, and they took care of my belongings. I will be recommending them to anyone who needs help. Thank you Allsouth Moving!
These guys are MAGIC. I had already scheduled a uhaul to take stuff because I figured there was no way they could get all this stuff on a POD. Not only did they get everything on there, I have extra room! These guys should be the top of every list for moving!
Late was the only issue did a very good job unloading done in 2 hours. Was careful with fragile items. But the guys from DC loading the truck were not so careful a new piece of furnitures leg was broken off.
Ed and Mark were absolutely awesome. Extremely professional and friendly. They were careful and thoughtful in unloading and placing things where needed. Very much appreciated and would recommend them highly. Thanks so much
They called letting us know what time they would arrive and when they arrived they assisted the job and were prepared to get the job done. They were hard workers and they were very professional and completed the job in less time than we had scheduled.
What an amazing experience! Our movers were punctual, precise, polite, considerate, thorough and meticulous. I am incredibly impressed. If I could give them ten stars I would!
Robert and Lewis from Hi Tech did a great job! They arrived early and went right to work. They were courteous and very professional. I would definitely use them again.
