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.

Beryl and his crew did a great job unloading my belongings from the moving trailer. They were available with short notice, came in right on time, and worked very efficiently to get everything done. They treated everything with care and I will be using them again when I move next! They are worth every penny. Thanks guys!
They were a little late but called to let me know. They did a great job. Very respectful of my belongings, set up my bed and put everything where I wanted them. Very professional they knew what they were doing. If I ever move again these guys will be my first call!!
They arrived on time, did the job quickly and put everything where I requested. That’s all I ask for with movers and they fulfilled all my requirements. I will hire them again.
