Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move
When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. 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 movers to load or unload your stuff.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably less expensive.

The Cost of Moving in Alexandria City, VA
In Alexandria City labor-only moving help typically costs between $316.72 and $821.32.
If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $75.39 an hour.
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.
Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |

Alexandria City, VA | $303.01 | $730.89 |
Virginia | $338.87 | $794.36 |

They were great! I was impressed by the way they packed our furniture to ensure that nothing got broken in transit. They were super fast, super nice, and I would recommend to anyone.
Great people. Only there two hours. Did all the heavy lifting and followed instructions well. They like water ice cold when they are done working. Wouldn’t even take a break.
They were on time and ready to get to work. They made this move easy. He came in and said "No worries, do not stress we have this." I would recommend them and will use them again.
These guys went above and beyond. Very quick, effective, and efficient. I booked them last minute and was stressing about the items in our truck that was sitting there, but they arrived and more than delivered. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Kendall and David were great. I scheduled two hours as I live in a split level with boxes and furniture on each floor. They were thorough and skilled, and got everything in the truck within an hour (which was a feat considering that some of my furniture was in a difficult to access place). Highly recommend them! Efficient, on time and communicative.
Kendall and Dave were so helpful and efficient and put us at ease, even though we weren’t fully ready or packed. Great communication pre-move. Would use them again anytime.
Alex and Nate were punctual, polite and offered suggestions where I hadn't seen any issues. These gentlemen are a solid asset for their company. Step by Step should be proud of the quality of workmanship that these two employees provide. I cannot praise them high enough....outstanding customer service.
BRAINS AND MUSCLE!!! The gentlemen that helped us pack and move were extremely skilled at what they do. We wouldn’t have been able to fit our belongings in a pod without them. And what they did in 8 hours would’ve taken us a month.
Absolutely wonderful! They were very nice, quick, and professional. They moved all of my things in less than a third of the time it took other movers. I would highly recommend!
The 3 men were absolutely awesome. Worked well as a team, very polite and helpful. I would recommend them any day. They came right on time and worked without stopping. So impressed.
Bill and Yak were friendly and worked hard, carrying boxes and furniture up a flight of stairs efficiently and carefully. They were friendly and fast. They arrived late because their previous job took much longer than scheduled, but Moving With Pride called me in advance to give me a new ETA. They made my move smooth and stress-free and I'd use them again.
They arrived within the window of time allotted, or courteous, professional, patient. They followed instructions well and had good attitudes. I will recommend them again.
