| Home Size | Average Cost | Average # of Movers | Average # of Hours |

| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $370.83 | 2 movers | 2.4 hours |

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, itâs considerably more affordable.

We had a very nice experience with this service. They were on time and very courteous. While being friendly, they went right to work and got the job done. We would definitely use them again. Thank you!
On time, FAST, in a great mood! Made the move in a lot easier considering the other movers packed some of our stuff so it would break. I would recommend these guys time and time again.
The guys were very friendly and respectful of me and our house. They offered to do anything that would help my move of furniture from the garage to the inside of my house. Very careful of not damaging anything. I would definitely recommend them.
2 very nice young men very kind and curtious did wonderful job in spite of the heat it being Sunday.. fathers day.. and less than 24 hours notice ..would use them again...thanks so much you guys!
Jeff and Brian were WONDERFUL. Very caring, on time, respectful, and worked hard. I am a Realtor in town, and have sung their praises to all. I would hire that team again in a heartbeat. My client was an older gal who couldn't have been happier with their professionalism and friendliness. A++++
My move took place on a bad day. On my car my tire blew out on the way to the move to pick up the truck. They were patient and waited for me and I was certainly grateful that they did. They finished up in record time and got me out of the situation with grace and dignity. These guys are the best!
The crew was very efficient in using up the space in the pod. Everyone was polite and helpful. They came on time, worked very hard to put everything in, which I was doubtful when I first saw the pod. But they did it!! I highly recommend this company.
They were a little late but no big deal for us. They exceeded my expectations on every other level. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.
The two guys were so nice and friendly. I so wanted to leave a tip, but I am on a fixed income. I would surely recommend them to everyone. They were fast and accurate. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic guys to work with they went above and beyond what I anticipated and made the moving process. It’s easy as possible. Great work and I look forward to working in one way unpack
They did a very good job. I highly recommend them.Two people came and they were on time.They finished loading, unloading, assembly and disassmebly of furniture within time.
Melacon was friendly, professional, honest, informative, and efficient. They treated all my things as if they were packing there own belongings. I would highly recommend their services to everyone!

Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Fairbury
You've got moving questions, weâve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Fairbury.
The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we canât find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicksâeven same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. 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 Fairbury 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.
