The Cost of Hiring Movers in Del Mar, CA

On average, it costs $397.21 to hire moving helpers in Del Mar, CA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Del Mar, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $95.38.

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 Del Mar, CA is $750.09, with an average hourly rate of $127.57. 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.

Andrew and his co worker are moving magicians. I kept pointing to stuff figuring he would eventually stop me, but they got everything in, and even went above and beyond with an awkward last-second request to add an old kid’s desk. I’d hire these guys again in an instant.

I was shifting boxes and sorting things in preparation for a move. I was helped by Marquis and Damien. Ken also arrived later to help. The team was great: fast and efficient, thoughtful, polite and respectful. They gave me intelligent feedback on the sorting. Very helpful in every way. I would certainly hire them again and recommend them to others.
