The Cost of Hiring Movers in Canaan, CT
On average, it costs $397.59 to hire moving helpers in Canaan, CT. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Canaan, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $82.85.
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 Canaan, CT is $579.93, with an average hourly rate of $100.77. 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.

2 man crew arrived on time and completed the unloading of a small POD container in the time estimated. Very efficient crew taking direction and care handling box placements within the residence. We would indeed use this service again as needed. Thanks to David the crew chief.
Ryan and Robin were absolutely amazing! They came in like a very professional hurricane! They moved so fast, were very clean and professional! I would ABSOLUTELY recommend them!
They were amazing! Showed up on time, then became a tornado! They worked so fast and efficiently. Everything was packed safely and securely. They were super respectful and enjoyable to have around. I would use them in a heartbeat…except I’m never moving again!
Great work!! Extremely efficient, experienced and professional. Came ahead of time, were very careful and fast throughout, even took care to keep my stuff carefully in the truck. Would hire them if I move again. If anyone is reading this review, I vouch for this team as I am very satisfied with their services.
Ryan and his helper did an amazing job! They were early, had what they needed for the job, and were very careful with our furniture. I would use them again without hesitation. Highly recommend.
These guys are amazing! The unloaded my 16' storage trailer in less than an hour and placed everything exactly where I asked. Pleasant through the entire process, with no complaining. Really good communication throughout the entire process from booking to completion.
Both Justin and Rick were polite, friendly and respectful. They waited for our directions and followed them without a flaw. The POD was emptied and good time and everything was left in good order.
Absolutely awesome! Managed to get a large sofa through the tiniest doorway despite extreme difficulty. Work was done quickly and without damage. These two were great!
Easily the best moving crew I’ve ever worked with / hired. On time, prepared, had their own tools, they had a plan and executed that plan. They took apart any furniture that needed taking apart to fit outside, they were fast and efficient, they informed me of everything as they worked, and were kind and courteous. I will be hiring them again for sure.
Eric and Ronin were fantastic!! Were right on time (10 minutes early), and had my truck loaded up in an hour. This is my second move with Fast Movers and I won’t hire anyone else. Thank you!!
Wonderful service! Our movers were time efficient, friendly, caring, and so personable. They were able to listen to our requests, work fast without complaint (even though is was pouring rain!), and had a smile on their face the entire time! Moving can be such a stressful expierence, and our movers helped remove almost all our stress.
The team arrived early, were eager to jump right into the project, worked quickly and efficiently, packed the box truck like pros, took care of our furniture and delicate items, and were a friendly, engaging team. Highly recommend!
