What Is Labor-Only?
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 moving contractors to help load or unload your furniture and boxes.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it's considerably more affordable.

Awesome service. Expert, professional, easy to get along with, hard working. Couldn't have done it better ourselves. A++++ service. Thank you!!!!!!!
The communication ahead of time was excellent and when the team arrived they got to work immediately. They were courteous, professional and hard-working. The job was completed in less time than expected. It was a great decision to work with Hire A Helper!
Aaron was very professional and got the work done faster than me and wife could have done by ourselves. He offered to refund the time if he got done early. Overall the services he provided were excellent and flexible.
The guys were very friendly, patient, and hard working. They clearly know what they are doing. In fact, in 3-4 months I will be getting the rest of my stuff and I will definitely use them again now that they have their own moving truck!! I highly recommend Immediate Movers to move you to your new home!!
The young men were in communication and arrived as expected. The were properly dressed and went to work quickly. They handled the items well. Did not bump into anything and handled the items properly. They were not the best at loading and securing the goods. It was adequate and we did not sustain any damage. Overall I was happy with the work and people.
You guys were awesome! Efficient, friendly and such hard workers! I am amazed at how much you got done in the two hours you were there. Thank you so much! I would highly recommend using these movers. They work hard every moment they are there. Communication was great before the move, and they were careful with everything.
Superior Moving Services are the hardest working men on the planet. They unloaded our 26 ft. moving truck with exceptional care and in warped speed. These guys were very professional and very friendly. Although not necessary, they took extra time after the move to sweep out the moving truck for us. I’d give them more stars if I could.
Courteous, and professional. Showed up when they said they they would, started immediately, got everything loaded. I'd hire this company again in a minute!
The team was friendly and worked quickly to unload the truck withing the time that we had contracted. They were very helpful and flexible to moving things around and putting some things back into the truck that did not fit in the apartment. They handled our furniture and belongs with care. I would highly recommend them.
The crew was on time, efficient, hard-working, professional, and personable. They took extra care with delicate items and wrapped anything I asked of them. I would definitely recommend them again!
Both guys were very helpful and moved really fast. They had us moved in about 1hr -and 15 minutes!!! This was a 26’ truck that was completely full! Couldn’t have asked for better movers and their and the company’s willingness to work with us on such short notice. Thank you!!

One set of stairs is always included in your moverās rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more.
