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.

The Cost of Moving in Downers Grove, IL
In Downers Grove labor-only moving help typically costs between $348.53 and $693.69.
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 $82.11 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.

These guys are awesome!!! Very professional efficient, and just a pleasure to work with. It almost makes me want to have another moving day to work with them again.
They were an excellent crew! Showed up 5 min early. They were fast, professional and friendly. They saved me the day before the trucks rolled in. I highly recommend.
Shaq and his teammate were very attentive and very helpful. They handled our unpacking with more care than the loaders had, and some items are better contained in storage than they were during the trip to storage. We really appreciate their great work and professionalism. We will definitely recommend the services to anyone.
KJ, Steve, and James were amazing! I have never experienced such quick movers. They even offered to take my mattress for free to toss. So quick, kind, and respectful!! These guys need a raise!
Oscar and Kendrick did a fantastic job! They brought up all the items quickly and efficiently while also asking where to place things and even assembled some items for me. Great job.
Amazing movers. Extremely communicative from the beginning. On time, polite, efficient and professional. Highly recommend this company. You will be very happy! Moving is stressful they make it easy. Use them!
Were here ready to unload POD. THOUGHTFUL of my possessions. Friendly, sorted items out they thought would go in garage rather than house. They were both great.
Two young men went above and beyond working tirelessly. My only complaint is I was told by the person on the phone I would be able to add extra time if needed and although I needed more time the men were not available as they were scheduled for two more jobs today.
Steve and Theo were excellent helping me move into my apartment. They were very fast, professional, and skilled. They took extra care with my things and helped make this move very smooth. Definitely recommend!
Ganga Movers were fantastic from start to finish. They arrived exactly on schedule, kept us updated every step of the way, and unloaded our belongings with impressive speed and care. Even Chicago’s unpredictable traffic was not a problem; the crew adjusted on the fly and still finished ahead of time. Highly recommended for anyone seeking efficient, reliable movers in the city.
Ricky and Jaden were awesome! They moved the stuff out of our 16ft truck in around an hour and a half, including 2 big sofas! They were great and would definitely recommend them
These guys were awesome. They showed up down a man due to a family emergency, but worked super hard making sure everything I needed got moved into the pod, as well as bulky furniture I needed to get out of the apartment and into the back alley. I would hire them again.
