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. 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 less expensive.

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 Cerritos, CA

In Cerritos labor-only moving help typically costs between $298.89 and $541.99. 

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 $76.97 an hour.

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.

The 2-person team who helped pack my POD did an amazing job!!! They communicated well, worked with me to get as much as possible in the POD, and were super friendly. Can’t say enough to thank both of them for their quality work. Will definitely use them again in the future!

They were on time and fast. They worked hard and packed my trailer tightly saving me so much space and money. I recommend 3 movers, the extra person was key in keeping things moving during disassembling and demounting furniture and TV. I would book them again for a future move.

Had a quick and easy morning moving into my new apartment! Antonio and Davis were professional, on time, communicative, and efficient — and they were especially respectful of pieces that I was nervous to move. Definitely recommend these guys.

They showed up early, and did an amazing job loading our POD. We were very concerned about what would fit and they somehow magically fit everything but a couch we had let them know was optional. I'd say every single inch of space was used. Amazing job. They also finished within 2 hours which was great. Highly recommend using them for your moving needs.

Fantastic service. Mr. Winston knew his job inside and out. He and his partner moved out items from the 3rd floor apartment to the moving truck. They are professional, efficient and super friendly. No complaints, only praise! Call them; they will do you right!

Great crew. Fast, efficient, well organized by Jon. I am happy I ended up using them despite initial miscommunication on how two loads would be handled for me. They loaded one of the orders and I booked another crew for the same time to load another container which worked out to my benefit from timing perspective. Service-wise - top notch!

They called and text twice to say they would be late on Saturday. They started at 1230 pm and finish loading at 217 pm. Once they were here they did a great job! They were very friendly and knew what they were doing. They work less than two hours so I didn't tip them. I know they were paid for three hours. Thanks, Mike Baker

Bernard and Ivan are amazing. They have to be world champion real life Tetris players. It is amazing the care they took with our furniture. Wrapping and padding everything. I wish they could unload my Pod in Tennessee! If you can I would request these 2, they work so well together, you would think they were brothers. I would give them 10 stars out of 5 if possible.
