The Cost of Hiring Movers in Allston, MA
On average, it costs $422.90 to hire moving helpers in Allston, MA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Allston, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $90.83.
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 Allston, MA is $566.35, with an average hourly rate of $154.68. 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.

Steve, Terrel and James were penomenal movers. They were polite, hard working, friendly and very conscientious of my belongings and how they should be properly packed. I highly recommend this service from First Class Movers. You will be very pleased with their professionalism and skill.
I hired two guys for two hours to more stuff between two houses next door to each other. I had a list that should have taken 2 days to finish. Greg and Alan arrived right on time and got to work. Two hours later the list was completed. Loyal Movers is a professional and hard working company. I will ask for them the next time. Thanks again.
3 people came even though it was booked for 2 person job. They could have disassembled some of the stuff to fit things more properly but still everything fit in a single relocube so thats ok. They were polite and respectfull
The move of items from an 80 % full 16 foot POD to the New Hampshire home went smoothly and the two workers were carefull and efficient completing the job within the two hours. I would recomend them to others for a move. They were on timeand worked hard.
They were so amazing. Moved all of my stuff so fast I was amazed. Amazing personalities and overall great people. I highly recommend them for your move!!! 11/10
Great job! Movers were very efficient, kind, and professional. Movers communicated well and addressed all needs and concerns. I would definitely use this company again and recommend to others. The team was also very prompt and moved quickly but cautiously since rain was in the forecast on my moving day.
The team was on time, very professional and respectful of my treasures. They are an asset to your company and deserve a "10" rating. I highly recommend them!!!
On time! Efficient. Friendly. Quick. Neat. I don’t know what else I can even say about this amazing team! I truly appreciate the help moving us to the 3rd floor apartment on this very hot day
I Highly recommend Chevin and team! I can’t believe the game of Tetris they played - and won -with all of my stuff in the shipping pod! Very professional and great to work with!
They were prompt, helpful and industrious! We couldn’t have asked for a better moving experience! We’ve never had more thoughtful and careful movers help us load our pod! We got everything to fit in the time we requested! If we ever move back to the northeast, we would use Heavy Foot Movers!
Terrell and his team were absolutely amazing. Extremely fast and efficient, and handled all of my belongings with care . They also showed up as a team of 3 though I paid for 2 helpers, and were able to move even quicker due to this. It was very clear that they are experienced movers. I would definitely hire First Class Movers again- they lived up to the name!
My experience with Fortex moving was incredibly stress-free! Henrique was very communicative and friendly. The guys unloaded my POD carefully and efficiently. Couldn't be happier with my experience, and I would definitely book them again!
