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

Full-service is definitely more convenientâbut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.

|---|---|---|
| Dexter, ME | $440.69 | $1,146.36 |
| Maine | $440.69 | $1,146.36 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size

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, it's considerably more affordable.

These guys were terrific: right on time, started in immediately and never seemed to tire, friendly and full of helpful suggestions, always careful with furniture as if it was their own. If (God forbid) I ever have to move again, I wouldn't hesitate to call these guys.
Great crew! Worked fast, efficient. Moved our heavy stuff off of the truck and up 3 flights of stairs in an hour. Would absolutely hire this team again!
Guido and his crew were attentive, hardworking, and extremely professional. They showed up on time and were very efficient with loading things safely while maximizing space in our truck. Everything arrived safe and sound! Would definitely recommend their services to anyone in Maine!!
Their arrival window was between 11:00 and 12:00. At 12:10 we called because they hadn’t arrived yet. They showed up at 12:30. The two workers did work hard once they arrived. It would have been nice if they had reached out to let us know they were going to be late.
Right on time - helped us with a move down some winding narrow stairs - excellent service. Prepared, polite, asked the right questions - handled our goods carefully in a fairly difficult environment. Absolutely would use them again - they are worth every penny.
The Bell boys movers were wonderful! Mine had been a very stressful move. Their knowledge and care made all the difference. I will use them again (when I move in July) and would recommend them 100%!
The team from Bell Boys were fantastic. On time, great communication, professional and friendly. Moved quickly and treated us and our belongings with the utmost care. Hope we never have to move again but these guys would be the ones I'd use for sure if I did.
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!
Efficient, knowledgeable, and fast. They handled my third-story apartment without issue and packed everything tightly into our small trailer with clear expertise.
These guys are some hard-working gentlemen! Punctual, respectful, and very understanding when my answer to ‘where does this go’ was “Ummm...” almost half the time. Already recommended them to my neighbors and will continue to use them anytime I can. Use them and be satisfied with your choice.
Excellent couple of guys, hard working, very friendly and pleasant . They took great care in packing an unloading the truck to make sure that every thing was safe and secure for the trip.
These guys were excellent! They were organized, efficient, and they allowed us to benefit from their expertise. They were also friendly and personable. They unpacked most of our 26' and 16' trucks in three hours then asked if we needed anything else before they left. We would definitely recommend them.

All Dexter movers listed on HireAHelper are required to provide standard repair coverage, which reimburses $0.60 per pound for damaged items. Some states may have different rules, and full-value protection is only required by the federal government for moves that cross state lines.
One of the advantages of booking with HireAHelper is that every move includes our $1,000 Service Guarantee. Plus, you can upgrade your protection by adding SmartProtectionâ˘âan optional coverage for labor-only moves that offers up to $10,000 in damage coverage, with multiple tiers to choose from.
Yes, professional movers will typically disassemble and reassemble furniture as part of the moving process. However, there are certain items that movers may not be able to disassemble. Learn more about how furniture disassembly and reassembly works when you hire movers.
One set of stairs is always included in your moverâs rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to get a quote and indicate the number of sets of stairs that you haveâmake sure to include stairs leading to a basement if you will have any items that need to be moved into or out of it. Read more about when movers charge extra for stairs.
You should start packing at least three to four weeks before your move, but the sooner the better. If you need to downsize or organize, we recommend starting that process 6-8 weeks before your move when at all possible.
Need to move in a hurry or don’t have time to pack? HireAHelper makes it easy to add professional packing as an add-on to your move. When available, you can get packing help for just several rooms or your whole home.
