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 Arlington, MA
In Arlington labor-only moving help typically costs between $408.19 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 $100.30 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.

The two movers that helped us with the moving of pieces around in our townhouse were on time and got everything accomplished efficiently and professionally. They were great!
Good communication with arrival time. Very friendly and efficient. Very careful with the furniture and provided good insight on loading the container to prevent damage during shipment.
Highly recommend this team! They were flexible when my POD was two hours late and got it done sooner than planned. They came prepared with tools and handled everything with care. I would definitely hire them again!
The guys were amazing! They got to work right away on packing our items. They were very careful with our items. They loaded our POD with such precision it was impressive! Would definitely recommend them if you need help with moving!
They were incredibly skilled at both moving our large pieces of furniture and packing our POD in the most geometrically efficiently way. Would recommend to any and all.
I highly recommend Top Movers. Justin and his team arrived on time and got to work very quickly. They were attentive, worked quickly, and took great care with unloading my many boxes and furniture. I would use them again.
Ryan and his team showed up right on time and moved our furniture from house to apartment in an efficient and timely manner. The move went very smooth and professional.
These guys were totally awesome—prompt,knowledgable, super friendly and fast, and could they get at it—super fast, very strong. Were exceedingly careful with everything, handled with the utmost care. Will recommend these to others we know are moving, would and surely would use them for any future moves— a great crew!
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.
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!
Joe and Stephen arrived as scheduled and unpacked my container very efficiently. They had to handle things delicately, too, as the movers I hired at the loading stage didn’t do a great job of packing so things shifted a lot during its travel across country. But they made sure no additional damage was done. They were extremely personable and I’d hire them again.
Jim and his team member were great - extremely punctual and so efficient. They made my move so smooth and helped pack everything into my storage unit that made the most use of my space. Would highly recommend for their expertise and hard work.
Real Advice from Arlington Movers
"The best advice for moving in the New England area is to measure both the furniture and the paths/locations where items will be going. Many of the old houses in the region have tight areas that make moving difficult, or impossible. It is best to know if an item will fit beforehand to minimize wasted time. "
