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. 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 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 more affordable.

The Cost of Moving in Carmi, IL

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.

|---|---|---|
| Carmi, IL | $348.74 | $844.04 |
| Illinois | $408.32 | $1,085.66 |

Miss Sherry was amazing. Our 1st house fell thru and after driving over 1700 miles she was my rock! Kept me calm and kept in touch. After finding another house her crew was ON IT! Emptying the truck was done in record time. I WILL BE USING THEM AGAIN, for ALL my future moves!!!
These young men was awesome. They was very professional on time reliable and very organized they took half of a 26-footer and put it in a small storage unbelievable great job but use them but every one of my move thanks again
Marcus and Tyrone were the movers assigned to my move. They were absolutely WONDERFUL! They were on time and 100% prepared. They worked extremely hard and proficient.

I had 2 helpers & they were great . On time, polite,. They had everything they needed! I would recommend this company to any body who’s moving across country. They took the stress out of it. Thank you so much for making it look easy
The team arrived on time and were very friendly and professional. They work hard and careful with the furniture. I highly recommend them. They were very efficient and respectful.
The team were on time, communicated well and did a great job. I really appreciate how low stress it was as the mover- they just made it all happen and I watched with amazment!
Gordon and John were two of the best helpers I've hired over past several years. They even pointed out a ding in the wall just in case they caused it, which they did not. Nothing was broken, scratched, etc. they completed the job with an hour to spare. Would definitely hire again!
Terrance and Rodney arrived within an hour of us calling them. They loaded the truck then unloaded and carried everything up to a third floor apartment. They took apart and put back together a bed. Then they came back the next day to take a load to storage. I will definitely call them the next time I need to move anything.
Great job packing my pod! There was even room to spare. Marcus was very mindful of all my possessions, wrapping all and loading with care. Friendly and professional. Thank you fellas!

The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
All Carmi movers listed on HireAHelper are required to provide standard repair coverage, which reimburses $0.60 per pound for damaged items. Some states may have different rules, and full-value protection is only required by the federal government for moves that cross state lines.
One of the advantages of booking with HireAHelper is that every move includes our $1,000 Service Guarantee. Plus, you can upgrade your protection by adding SmartProtection™—an optional coverage for labor-only moves that offers up to $10,000 in damage coverage, with multiple tiers to choose from.
Yes, professional movers will typically disassemble and reassemble furniture as part of the moving process. However, there are certain items that movers may not be able to disassemble. Learn more about how furniture disassembly and reassembly works when you hire movers.
One set of stairs is always included in your mover’s rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to get a quote and indicate the number of sets of stairs that you have—make sure to include stairs leading to a basement if you will have any items that need to be moved into or out of it. Read more about when movers charge for extra for stairs.
You should start packing at least three to four weeks before your move, but the sooner the better. If you need to downsize or organize, we recommend starting that process 6-8 weeks before your move when at all possible.
Need to move in a hurry or don’t have time to pack? HireAHelper makes it easy to add professional packing as an add-on to your move. When available, you can get packing help for just several rooms or your whole home.
