What Is Labor-Only?
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 moving contractors to help load or unload your furniture and boxes.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, itâs considerably more affordable.

Two fine, strong, personable men showed up a couple of minutes before the beginning hour of the window of time requested. They worked hard and were very respectful of the items being moved. They finished all the move in the original time requested. I would use them again.
The two men showed up on time and were ready to work! They took instructions well and did an awesome job! They were able to complete the job in the allotted time for our moving day. Thanks for a great job. Will use them again, when needed.
So helpful. They emptied the freight in record time. Pointed out any problems or breakage. So polite. Will be using them again when I actually get into house. Thanks
Second’s Movers did a great job. Great personalities, very thoughtful company, and were always willing to help. With us they were late, due to circumstances not under their own control. But, they were in constant contact with, apprising us of all details, and assuring us that they were coming, and not canceling. I highly recommend this team of movers.
These guys worked w me when pods did not deliver my container on time. The guys worked hard, were pleasant, courteous and interacted with me. They all worked hard from start to finish. I only have on complaint. When they lefi didn’t realize they left a pile of moving blankets outside. I didn’t discover them until the morning and it had rained over night. Excellent job.
The Second's Movers team that showed up to help us move was fantastic. They worked very hard despite the high temperature and humidity. They had great attitudes and were friendly and professional!
Very professional and friendly. They had a person call in sick and kept me up to date. Was very fair with adjusting the price. They were quick, friendly. Being a new transplant I was very comfortable interacting with the movers in person and the contact person via text and phone. Will definitely use again!
We were very pleased with the service provided. The crew was on time, efficient, friendly and careful with our belongings. I would absolutely use them again.
The two people who moved me were on time, very courteous, worked quickly and carefully. They were very helpful, and is use this company again. Highly recommend!
They were here for three hours and I was charged for five this is not the help fault it’s the company’s. So if you hire them for five hours make sure you have work for that amount of time.
The men did an incredibly great job! I had no idea they would load everything in less than 2 hours and did it so well. Their work ethic and knowledge are excellent. I am so so thankful we made the decision to hire the help. Highly recommend!!
The movers showed up on time to unload. They were very professional, courteous and efficient. They placed our items in the house exactly as we asked them to do. They were extremely careful not to damage anything in the house while moving boxes and furniture. We were most impressed they drove about two hours to get to this job. I highly recommend the men that did the unloading!!
