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.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Elburn, IL

In Elburn labor-only moving help typically costs between $261.40 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 $72.33 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.

Everything was great! They were on time, efficient, and very thorough. We moved on a very hot day and despite the heat they handled my belongings with care. They were prepared and had the appropriate equipment (Dollies, tape, furniture wrap, etc tv) to make my move smooth and easy. I would recommend!

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.
