The Cost of Hiring Movers in Charlotte, NC

On average, it costs $322.10 to hire moving helpers in Charlotte, NC. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Charlotte, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $77.57.

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 Charlotte, NC is $781.60, with an average hourly rate of $125.99. 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.

I would highly recommend them. Myron and Junior worked so hard and were very professional. They took such care with our furniture and made sure it was wrapped well. They put way more furniture than we expected in the pod. Myron definitely knows what he is doing when it comes to packing. Very satisfied.

AJ and G were on time, prepared. Really friendly good couple of guys. They worked really hard and packed my container to the max it was impressive. The only hitch was I booked three movers on the website for loading/ packing but the two guys definitely got the job done and I would definitely use them again. We listened to some good music too!

How Hiring Moving Labor Works with HireAHelper

  • Loading or unloading your shipping container or moving truck
  • Moving heavy furniture
  • Packing help
  • Moving into or out of a storage unit

Real Advice from Charlotte Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Charlotte. (They’re really nice!)

"If you are moving into or out of the Charlotte area between May and August, be sure to check the weather! We get an annual average of 43 inches of rain and it can definitely impact not only your drive, but your load/unload process as well. Be sure to make your truck reservations at least 2 weeks in advance, especially during peak moving season, and note that some locations are not open on Sunday! Make sure to also plan your arrival/departure in regards to rush hour traffic. It can make a big difference!"

"Local U-Haul centers will rent moving pads by the dozen, so there's no need to buy them. Rent for ~$10 per dozen and return them to U-Haul when you are done moving."
