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.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Braidwood, IL

In Braidwood labor-only moving help typically costs between $327.85 and $693.69. 

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 $76.89 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.

Three men arrived at my house to move furniture out of my house and into a PODS container in my driveway. They were efficient and hard working. They treated my belongings with care, ensuring that everything was loaded securely. I was very impressed with everything about the job they did. I highly recommend HIRE A HELPER for all your moving and loading needs.

Our movers were great! We’ve moved several times in the last few years and the two men who came to help us today were the best movers we’ve had by far. They were prompt, efficient, friendly, and careful with all of our stuff. They put everything exactly where we wanted it and were careful to make sure nothing was damaged.
