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 Elkton, MD

In Elkton labor-only moving help typically costs between $322.23 and $376.90. 

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 $70.53 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.

Joey and Michael showed up on time and ready to work! They were courteous, professional , and respectful of my time. They moved a bedroom of furniture into a storage area near my home and assisted me with loading broken items onto my moving truck for drop off to the landfill tomorrow!

I was supposed to get 2 guys but only got one. They said they had another 2 guys en route, but they were running 2.5 hours late. That being said, the guy who came was very helpful, definitely knew what he was doing, and did a great job helping us move stuff downstairs and pack the truck. Would hire again for sure.
