The Cost of Hiring Movers in Allentown, PA
On average, it costs $404.30 to hire moving helpers in Allentown, PA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Allentown, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $88.37.
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 Allentown, PA is $1,411.71, with an average hourly rate of $124.74. 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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

Adelphia was much better than movers in Florida. We were very disappointed with the movers in Florida on April 21st. Lamp shades, dresser, and bed frame were all damaged. One of the bolts for the headboard was cracked and Adelphia tried there best to re-assemble. Adelphia felt very bad and could not believe how careless the other movers were when they loaded the U-Pack cube.
Top notch! They showed up right on time and worked super hard and efficiently. Job was loading boxes (some fragile) from a storage locker onto a Uhaul truck. They did an amazing, careful job with the loading so that nothing would shift—true pros. Indeed, their skills and work ethic are the best I’ve ever had among movers. If you want a truck loaded well, hire them!
H& M Movers were the best movers we've ever used!! They were absolutely amazing... on time, pleasant, courteous, prepared and worked their tails off!! It was so evident Hector and his crew had decades of experience, we will most definitely be calling on them again, next time we move!! Thank you!! ??
They did an amazing job, this was the best decision I made to hire Affordable Movers. If moving again will definitely hire them again and will of course recommend them as well to anyone moving. Takes so much stress off your hands during an already stressful time. Thank you so much
Although we switched the orifinal scheduling the week prior they arrived on time and worked very quickly and efficciently, maximizing the loading of the container. The 2 man team finished an hour early as we had already staged the load on the first floor (in the garage adjcent to the container). A job well done and worth the cost! Thanks to We Move for your help!
I’m unbelievably impressed by the work ethic, professionalism, and discipline of this Team. What’s more, they demonstrated strategic thinking and how they navigated, difficult and complex architectural obstacles to ensure that all my stuff stayed safe and where I wanted it. I’d give them 100 gold stars if I could. A two bedroom apartment accomplished in less than two hours.
Movers did a great job, unloading a large container and hot weather. They definitely did not work slow. They took multiple boxes per trip. no damages. Use them on prior job, and I'm planning to use them on another job in a couple of weeks.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SERVICE! Holiday Helpers were the best movers I've ever had. Very efficient and friendly! Would hire them again in a heartbeat! I recommend for any move!
Absolutely fantastic, did everything perfectly. Very knowledgeable on how to pack a truck which was a huge help. Can’t recommend enough! Kind hard-working people. Thank you!!!
Punctual, very friendly, hard working, recommended I pack items in chester drawers and extremely efficient packing the 28' truck, save me the cost of additional pods or truck. Simply amazing!
Great job. We’re prompt and worked hard to get the move done in the allotted time. Were even available to come in earlier. Would definitely hire them again
The movers came on time There were three gentlemen they made quick work of emptying our storage unit and they were very efficient. I felt they were professional, and I enjoyed working with them. I would recommend them for any moving in our area. Thank you for helping. Get settled in our new location all the best.. Patti Erb
