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 convenient—but that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.

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.

Great guys. Quick and efficient. Went above and beyond to help me out. They were careful and considerate. We have a switchback staircase which makes me cringe - they tackled it with no problem! They were on time and got done what I needed to be done in pretty quick time! Would definitely recommend. Thank you!

The helpers did an excellent job and were very careful when bringing the arcade in the house and setting it up. Without their help, I would not have been able to put it together correctly. Also they were all very very courteous, kind, and professional. Thanks gentlemen! Steve Sly

The guys did a great job and did it fast. A little too fast on occasion since I could hardly keep up with where to put everything as they unloaded, but that's no bad thing. They were careful with the furniture, polite and friendly, and unloaded the truck in record time. I will certainly hire them again.

Fast and efficient. Protected doors and railings before bringing items into the house, and made sure to get the layout of the house and asked where boxes needed to go during the move. Great job.

Will definitely use them again - just booked them to pack our second container in a couple weeks. They surprised my wife with how much can fit into the container. She had started making plans about what to do with stuff that wouldn't fit into our two containers, but looks like we will be good.

Ben and Levi were the best! I was not happy with the 2 helpers on Fri. 10/2 but Ben and Levi more than made up for it. They were careful, courteous AND fast. I was extremely ill and had to ask a friend to take over giving them directions and she was impressed as well. As a realtor she may be able to send referral business. Thanks to everyone at 5 Star!!

Process could not have gone more smoothly! Communication from confirmation of arrival time to "we will be at your home in 15 minutes" helped to take the stress out of a very stress time! Movers were hard working, polite and obviously experienced in their craft. Highly recommend- I give Five Star Moving 5 stars!

Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Overbrook

You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Overbrook.

 

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 can’t 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 clicks—even 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. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.

All Overbrook 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 SmartProtection™—an 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 mover’s 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 have—make 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.
