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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |

The Cost of Moving in Cathlamet, WA

| Washington | $461.51 | $1,238.84 |

Although they were not on site when promised they worked very hard and were friendly, courteous very hard working during the move. Did a great job with some difficult objects like a 12' kayak, a 12' windsurfer and two recumbent bikes as well as the usual collection of desks, chairs, dressers and queen bed. They got it all into 14' of trailer space. I would use them again. Thanks guys!
Punctual, extremely polite. Fastidious about walls/carpets & property Had to make them stop for water break They were able to judge within half-inch large furniture placement i have moved all over the world & this father/son team were the best Recommend them to anyone Thank you
They were very courteous, professional, and clean. As far as I could tell, they packed the pod in a timely, efficient, and organized manner. Additionally, they went our of their way to lend me a tool from their personal supply. I needed a wrench, and didn't have access to mine, since mine were already packed in the pod:).
They were totally prepared and did a wonderful job! I highly recommend this outfit for any moving needs and plan to use them again along with giving referrals!!
Glenn and his partner were very respectful and did an excellent job stacking everything securely in the truck. Glenn’s communication was excellent, he called the night before to verify and text the morning of to say he was on his way. Very professional team.
I was pleasantly surprised to see them arrive early. We had just rented the truck. They were scheduled for between 3-4, but it was1:00 when we pulled in. All was efficiently accomplished. They were well skilled and very polite. A class act!
They were on time, didn't stand around, were very careful. They even brought blankets for the furniture and were willing to let us have them if need be. Great guys!
They were coming from Portland, which I was not aware of. They were prepared for the job, and worked very hard. All our property made it to the new house fine with no issues. Our guys needed some guidance, but I would use them again.
The crew arrived dead on time. They were great to work with. They were efficient, careful and quick and hard working. I had a few heavy and awkward items that they handled with ease. I would highly recommend them and yes I would hire them again. Gavin
Shay and Lleona did an excellent job moving me within Astoria. They were prompt, efficient, and very courteous. They also did a nice job training a very capable young man, on the job. Astoria is lucky to have this resource; I highly recommend them.
The 3 guys from Iregon Trail Moving Services did a great job. No messing around, walked downstairs to look at the job and carried boxes on there way up. The guy that packed the truck had to be a Tetris Wizard at best. They were hustlers and always thinking what's next. Even moved the 400 lbs. treadmill with out fear. I will definetly use them on the move in.
We had accidentally booked for the wrong weekend, but the movers were able to squeeze us in. They did everything asked of them, worked hard and were very polite. I would definitely recommend them.

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 Cathlamet 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.
