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.

The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

These 2 guys did an awesome job! We had our doubts that everything would fit in the Pod, but they worked their magic. Very friendly and careful with our stuff.
5 great guys: got to the site before I did, came prepared to do the work, finished an hour early, and had great attitudes. I'd recommend them with no hesitation. The people in the office were considerate and thorough. I was very comfortable with the whole process.
Awesome job, fast, and one guy was super strong (he was able to heft up some solid wood furniture himself instead of needing to pull aside the other worker to help).
Ace Movers were great to work with. They did an excellent job loading the truck and definately worked hard. They were a little late due to getting lost but they did call and let me know they were lost and I was able to give them directions. I would recommend them to anyone looking to move. GREAT JOB GUYS!!!!!
On time and worked hard the entire time they were there. They were careful to wrap and pack furniture carefully and tried to be careful to not scratch up the wood floors as they moved things.
We couldn’t be happier. M.S. Property Management did a great job for us! They were prompt, incredibly professional and handled all our furniture with white glove care. We will not only recommend them to family and friends, but they will be the first guys we call the next time we need help with a move.
Our moving crew was prompt, well-prepared and very courteous. They did their best to protect furniture in spite of our forgetting to get moving pads. We had the plastic wrap on a reel that they used to protect items. They packed very efficiently and used the limited space in the storage unit quite effectively. I would definitely recommend and would hire them again!
Originally got 2 for the job but I decided to get 2 more guys to help to take less time unloading to my new place. Communication with hire a helper and innovative moving is really easy and prompt. They are able to accommodate my request promptly and they got the job done in less time! Thank you guys!
On time, nothing damaged, stayed over an hour when it ran longer. Only complaint after releasing them their supervisor came and asked for a tip, while I was satisfied with the service I would have tipped them if I felt it was appropriate. I did tip them but only had a few ones and the supervisors response was it was better than nothing.
David and his partner were EXCELLENT.......efficient, hard working, polite, knew how to pack a U-Haul, etc.! I would highly recommend this crew (again).
I was very pleased with the overall performance by Daylight Movers and the professional manner in which the workers performed and conducted themselves Nehemiah
They did a good job unloading a 16 foot PODS but we had to wait 3 hrs to get started due to re-scheduling from Monday to Thursday. They were courteous and willing to do a good job. cvMay need some training to listen more to the owners concerns and protect property by using blankets for the dolly truck. Overall we were satisfied in the end.
