The Cost of Hiring Movers in Canterbury, CT
On average, it costs $426.95 to hire moving helpers in Canterbury, CT. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Canterbury, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $78.93.
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 Canterbury, CT is $593.20, with an average hourly rate of $104.40. 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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

| Moving Truck Included | ✅ | ❌ |

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!
I Highly, highly recommend Fast movers! From the very start Ryan's communication was amazing and timely. He and Hector were wonderful guys, a great spirit about them so present and helpful. Everything was moved with care and was done professionally .. I will be spreading the word to friends and family! Ryan and Hector , Thankyou so much for making a stressful time , a breeze! Joan D.
Dave and Paul were exceptionally helpful in unloading my PODS into my home. They were careful to lay out moving blankets to protect the floors, doors, and islands in the house, and took their time to get everything unloaded safely and efficiently. They even managed to get an incredibly heavy treadmill base to the second floor! I would highly recommend using them again.
Derrick, Carl, and Dajour went ABOVE AND BEYOND and my family and I couldn't be more grateful for their professional skill set!!! We'll DEFINITELY be recommending My Guys Moving Service moving forward. :-)
Very responsive to messages, communicated well & often. Arrived on time, very friendly, ready to work. Highly competent. Loaded and unloaded items, including a large moving truck which was packed extremely well. They were careful and efficient. I would rehire them any day.
Hire a Helper service was excellent. They were timely and efficient. The moving was done with care to avoid any damage to walls and the items themselves. They were professional and personable while completing the job. We would hire them again, should the need arise, and highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services. Thanks for a job well done.
These guys were so efficient and amazing. They could not have done a better job of navigating the truck and all the boxes and furniture. An hour and 15 minutes for a 16 foot truck filled front to back with boxes and furniture. They were super fast, friendly, and personable. We will be using them again in the future!
Anthony and his team are great. I’ve used several moving companies and this was by far the best experience. They’re very skilled at disassembling and securely loading furniture, even especially heavy and strangely-shaped desks. They’re exceptionally skilled at loading everything and maximizing the available space. I was really impressed and would hire them again.
The crew was wonderful! They were on time and very respectful of our belongings. They worked quickly and efficiently. We underestimated the size truck that we would need, but the crew carefully packed the truck using every available space in an attempt to fit as much as possible. I would highly recommend them
Heavy foot movers did a timely and careful job moving our storage unit items back into our home. We appreciate their communication and service and would recommend them to others.
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!!
The team was on time, very professional and respectful of my treasures. They are an asset to your company and deserve a "10" rating. I highly recommend them!!!
