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 Fountain Valley, CA

In Fountain Valley labor-only moving help typically costs between $348.15 and $826.21. 

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 $88.26 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.

I had such a great experience with the helpers who unloaded my furniture. They were super careful, efficient, and genuinely lovely people to work with. Not only did they handle everything with care, but they also helped me assemble and mount my chairs and tables without hesitation. I truly couldn’t recommend them more — absolutely top-notch service!

Both workers were fantastic. They took extra care for my furniture and property. Ivan called me to let me know they arrived early. They took their time to wrap all my furniture and moved everything slowly to assure there was no damage.

Bernard and Ivan are amazing. They have to be world champion real life Tetris players. It is amazing the care they took with our furniture. Wrapping and padding everything. I wish they could unload my Pod in Tennessee! If you can I would request these 2, they work so well together, you would think they were brothers. I would give them 10 stars out of 5 if possible.

They showed up early, and did an amazing job loading our POD. We were very concerned about what would fit and they somehow magically fit everything but a couch we had let them know was optional. I'd say every single inch of space was used. Amazing job. They also finished within 2 hours which was great. Highly recommend using them for your moving needs.

The two young men who helped load my cubes were truly amazing! They were strong, efficient, and made all my items fit into the two cubes with some extra room. And they loaded everything in less than 2 hours—I recommend them highly!
