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 Chestertown, NY

In Chestertown labor-only moving help typically costs between $364.81 and $687.19. 

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 $93.46 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 Chestertown 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.

I had a moving crew simply not show up. I was sick with a fully loaded 16’ truck with nobody to unload it. Marshall and his crew came in on a last minute call, on their third move of the day, to save the day. Thanks for the help!

Mark and Mike of Makin Movers were unbelievable helpers. We had 4 relo cubes and they unpacked them in no time. They were careful with our belongings and very pleasant to deal with. They went the extra mile and were by far the best movers we've ever had. I would use them again in a heart beat. Thanks!

Green Mountain Movers we’re excellent! Another moving company in NY cancelled last minute due to COVID and Green Mountain Movers came that day. Tamara had excellent communication, the team worked hard, careful with boxes, positive attitude and they got the job done in quoted time. I rarely give reviews but appreciate reading them so I’m passing along the 5 star recommendation today.

Prompt (actually a little early, and they called first to make sure that was ok), very hard working, polite, and always checking in with me to make sure everything was going how I wanted. They were really wonderful, and I will hire them again if needed and definitely recommend them to friends/family.

Great job by this two-man crew from A.R.M.S. Moving. Showed up early, never stopped working, took great care with my property. Only "negative" was: during this time of COVID19, I would have preferred that they wear masks. I realize it's difficult to wear a mask when one is working or exercising, but, this is a precaution that really should be taken. Still, I'd hire them again in a heartbeat.
