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.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Centralia, WA

In Centralia labor-only moving help typically costs between $357.15 and $757.32. 

If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $95.91 an hour.

HireAHelper’s Best Price Guarantee


Find a lower price for the same move? We’ll match it—because making your move easier and more affordable in Centralia is what we’re here for.

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.

They showed up on time. Even though I didn’t need them for the entire 2 hours, they offered to do anything else I might need. I appreciated that offer, but it wasn’t required. I just needed help with big pieces of furniture. I would definitely recommend them.

WOW. Great crew. Mike, Steve, and Larry were truly exceptional. They carefully unpacked a 16 ft container and placed items where we suggested. Wish I could have had them pack my container at the the departure site. If I move again, they will be my number one pick. Don't hesitate, call them.

The (replacement) crew showed up within their scheduled window. They were courteous and worked very hard to move our belongings with care. Since their dolly was not functional they strove to use the dolly and cart we had. I would recommend this team.
