The Cost of Hiring Movers in Putnam, NY

On average, it costs $455.48 to hire moving helpers in Putnam, NY. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Putnam, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $82.94.

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 Putnam, NY is $977.50, with an average hourly rate of $115.73. 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.

Yusuf and Courtney are wonderful helpers, we payed for 7 feet trailer but ended up using only 4' !! Because they loaded up so securely and perfectly. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM. The moving was less stressful thanks to them.

Charles, George and Buddha (Full Time Movers) were exceptional in their service and professionalism while I coordinated a move for family in another state. They took the time to communicate well and put everyone at ease with the process, and completed the packing as if it was an art. Many thanks to them for handling the job better than we could’ve hoped for. -Bill E

Hands down - amazing crew. Nayquhon and team were very professional, did all of the moving of pieces into our Pod and Garage very quickly and safely. They even disassembled a few pieces I completely forgot about. This job is for a renovation and we enjoyed them so much we REBOOKED this company for unloading. Thank you!

Eric and Ronin were fantastic! They arrived early (which was great!) and worked very hard; moving more furniture and boxes than I anticipated having. They communicated with me very clearly, and they finished in a very reasonable time frame.

I had an incredible experience with this trusty movers. They were not only punctual and professional but also handled everything with great care and efficiency. The team worked swiftly and ensured that nothing was damaged during the unloading process. What truly stood out was how reasonably priced the service was, especially for the high level of quality and dedication they provided.

Easily the best moving crew I’ve ever worked with / hired. On time, prepared, had their own tools, they had a plan and executed that plan. They took apart any furniture that needed taking apart to fit outside, they were fast and efficient, they informed me of everything as they worked, and were kind and courteous. I will be hiring them again for sure.
