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. 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 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 more affordable.

The Cost of Moving in Alum Creek, WV

In Alum Creek labor-only moving help typically costs between $279.03 and $687.19. 

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 $78.41 an hour.

HireAHelper’s Best Price Guarantee


Find a lower price for the same move? We’ll match it—because making your move easier and more affordable in Alum Creek is what we’re here for.

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.

They took time to report any broken items before moving them. Did all that was asked and stayed an additional 1.5 hours to complete the job. They called to confirm the morning of our move and let us know about changes in arrival time.

Is this bellhop? Unsure. If so, they were very nice, worked hard, and were in every way professional. We did feel the two were at a disadvantage, as it appeared they hadn't worked long enough together to have a system down.

I was very impressed with the labor, which consisted of a gentleman and lady. They were there on time and started to load immediately. They were very efficient and loaded the truck in such a way nothing fell during the trip to Virginia. Hire A Helper/Labor Ready made my move easier.
