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. 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 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 more affordable.

The Cost of Moving in Fort Defiance, VA

In Fort Defiance labor-only moving help typically costs between $318.13 and $821.32. 

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 $85.53 an hour.

HireAHelper’s Best Price Guarantee


Find a lower price for the same move? We’ll match it—because making your move easier and more affordable in Fort Defiance is what we’re here for.

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.

They sent and extra man -in training-, worked very hard and fast. Sam was a master at arranging everything and got far more in the POD than I thought possible. They finished in the agreed upon time. I plan to hire them to unload at the new place. Sam and his young assistant were outstanding!

Both workers did a great job. The weather was hot but they kept working, taking only reasonable breaks to stay hydrated. They arrived early and worked until the job was done, including rearranging furniture etc. until it was just how I wanted it. I'm very satisfied.

Excellent service. They called several days in advance to advise me on shrink wrap, blankets, etc. They arrived on time. They both finished ahead of schedule and wear able to fit all my contents into a single POD. They brought extra tape and tools when I quickly ran out. I was very impressed. They were friendly and professional. Strongly recommend to anyone in the Richmond / central Virginia area.
