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.

All I can say is WOW!! I would highly recommend CJ and Willie!! They unpacked my truck in record time and everything was in perfect condition. Since I had just gotten new flooring installed, they had to hold the furniture in the air until I got felt pieces on all the legs. They were awesome!
We only needed them for 15 min of work. They were both deaf but one read lips and interpreted for the other. They introduced themselves and were very pleasant. Great job and very quick! Thank you!!
The guys actually showed up a few minutes early and and finished everything in the two hour window we had booked. Great service, will call them again!
Chase Movers confirmed their arrival time the day prior and on the day of the move. Everett and Matt arrived right on time. They were diligent, knowledgeable, courteous, and did not take a break until the job was done. They finished within the time budgeted. I would use their services again and would highly recommend them.
Highly recommend. Alex and Jo Jo did a fantastic job. Worked hard and packed our uhaul with care. We arrived after 10 hrs of driving and nothing was broken or damaged. Very friendly and accomodating.
Absolutely awesome service. We had a 2 bedroom house and they loaded it all up no problem. Friendly and efficient, and the truck was packed up perfectly with room to spare! Very happy that we hired them, thank you!
Super fast, kind, and very patient with our challenges from cross country move. I would hire them again for sure but I hope I don’t have to move for a long time!! :)
These guys are truly professionals! They have great spatial awareness, treated all of our things with care, and got the job done with a few minutes to spare! Would 100% recommend them!
Excellent! Our three workers arrived promptly and worked quickly, professionally, and cheerfully. Nothing was damaged and they packed everything onto our truck beautifully. It's the second time we've hired them and we would recommend them without hesitation.
The 3 young men that came to unload us did a great job. They were very friendly and made sure that there was nothing else they could do for us before they left. I would highly recommend them.
Our experience was very positive. The movers arrived on time and unloaded the truck without damaging any articles. The unloading did take a long time (5 hrs), but that was not due to any fault of the movers. We had many items that were to be reloaded on the truck for storage purposes, which slowed down the process. We would not hesitate to use this service again.
The company is really the goat of Terre Haute and Surrounding Area. I have used them 3-4 times and they continue to exceed my expectations. They are always on time and work hard to get things done. I appreciate Eric, Brett and Calvin for everything they have done to help my family with all our moving needs

HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it. That means you donât pay extra to use HireAHelperâin fact, you may save money.
All Edgar 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.
