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.

They were on time and fast. They worked hard and packed my trailer tightly saving me so much space and money. I recommend 3 movers, the extra person was key in keeping things moving during disassembling and demounting furniture and TV. I would book them again for a future move.

The two men from Rigo's did a great job. They were courteous, careful, and efficient. They packed things into my pod in a very professional manner that indicates they have done this before. Everything was still in place and still in one piece when I got the container again, after moving multiple states away.

They worked hard and were very courteous and helpful but forgot to put the tv on the counter, left it on the floor and forgot to plug in the recliner, so I’ll have to get help to lift it (to find the cord). I’m satisfied though and would recommend them as I truly got my money’s worth.
