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. 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 less expensive.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

The Cost of Moving in Derby, CT
In Derby labor-only moving help typically costs between $312.28 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 $80.37 an hour.
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.

The people at Advantage Moving were a pleasure to work with. Tyler and Josh did an outstanding job of moving my S*?!t to my new apartment - and Greg Cooper was flexible and accommodating with scheduling. When i need to move again in the future (hopefully the distant future), i will reach out to Advantage Moving directly. Thank you, Gentlemen! - Dan J
Dave and Justin did a fantastic job loading my truck. They fit everything with room to spare and finished early! To top it off they were also really nice and respectful.
Great work!! Extremely efficient, experienced and professional. Came ahead of time, were very careful and fast throughout, even took care to keep my stuff carefully in the truck. Would hire them if I move again. If anyone is reading this review, I vouch for this team as I am very satisfied with their services.
Eric and Ronin were fantastic! They arrived early (which was great!) and worked very hard; moving more furniture and boxes than I anticipated having. They communicated with me very clearly, and they finished in a very reasonable time frame.
Rick and Justin are true professionals! They carefully wrapped all our furniture and loaded/unloaded with care. They worked through one of the hottest and humid days this summer and got the job done.
We had a good experience with Sharp Van Lines this month. The crew carefully packed and unpack for us. Nothing was damaged and the team was very professional and polite. So glad that we hired them.
Mike & Mike from Advantage Movers did a great job with my move. They were friendly and professional and did the job in a timely manner and came in on budget. I would recommend Advantage Movers without hesitation.
Justin and Rick couldn’t have made my move easier. They were totally flexible with my schedule which I really appreciated. They did a great job moving and packing my POD. Would definitely recommended them to anyone. Thanks!
These guys were great. The lead guy was a puzzle guru. I should have had him on my National Broadway Tour the first time we had to pack the trucks after the load out. He is a Tetris Master. Could not have been happier!
The crew was wonderful! They were on time and very respectful of our belongings. They worked quickly and efficiently. We underestimated the size truck that we would need, but the crew carefully packed the truck using every available space in an attempt to fit as much as possible. I would highly recommend them
Eric and Ronin were on time and prepared with moving equipment. They moved everything efficiently and were great about asking questions on where we wanted things. They made sure to not damage anything and were respectful of our property. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for helpers in their move!
Dave and Paul were exceptionally helpful in unloading my PODS into my home. They were careful to lay out moving blankets to protect the floors, doors, and islands in the house, and took their time to get everything unloaded safely and efficiently. They even managed to get an incredibly heavy treadmill base to the second floor! I would highly recommend using them again.
