The Cost of Hiring Movers in California, PA

On average, it costs $343.65 to hire moving helpers in California, PA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across California, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $74.33.

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 California, PA is $601.00, with an average hourly rate of $154.12. 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.

They did an excellent job on a very hot day. They wrapped everything, secured it well, and weren't phased by the multiple levels of stairs in my home. I will 100% book them for my next job.

These guys were excellent. From the moment I retained their services they were reaching out to me via email, text and telephone letting me know what their status was. I was just outside their service area, but they still were willing to take the job. They had awesome attitudes and worked unrelenting to accomplish my goals without any issues and we’re super fast doing so
