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, itās considerably more affordable.

Kendall and David were amazing! They were professional, friendly and respectful. They treated our belongings with care and placed them where we asked. We would highly recommend them!
I recently used Prestige laborers, and honestly, it turned what is usually one of the most stressful parts of moving into a smooth, efficient, and even enjoyable experience. From start to finish, their team was professional, punctual, and incredibly hardworking.
Arrived on time, even a little early, and got right to work. Nelson and his crew worked exceptionally well together; very professional and knew how to load a trailer. I highly recommend them!
Excellent guys who did a great job! Very thankful to have hired them. They were courteous, efficient, listened to directions, happily moved heavy boxes, furniture and books. They emptied a full 16' pod in less than 2.5 hours.
The two gentlemen Carlos and I’m sorry my moving brain can’t remember the other movers name, were on time, motivated and so, so helpful! I highly recommend this company! Thank you!
They were so professional and fast. I was scared that the container will not fit but they arranged and organized everything and I even have extra space. I recommend them 100%.
Mohammad was very professional and courteous. He was on time and completed the job in a timely manner. I would feel comfortable using them again any day.
The two helpers showed up right at the beginning of the time window. They were helpful, respectful and great at the "problem solving" steps of the truck loading process. 10/10 would use again.
I have moved a lot 16 times, and I can tell you without a doubt my favorite movers, fast, professional, hard working, and kind. If you want the best in town I highly recommend them. My mother and I will be using them for our next moves as well and telling anyone in the area about them. Thank you guys so much! A+++ Service
Chuck and Brad were amazing! They arrived as expected and worked non-stop until our POD was empty. They went above and beyond to ensure items were placed where we needed them, as well as caring for our things, our new home, and our animal's safety. Cannot say enough good things! Highly recommend! Thank you all so much!
Kendall and Dave really know what they’re doing when it comes to packing a storage pod. We thought we were going to need 2 pods but they were able to get everything into one pod! And in a little over a hour. They were kind and professional and adapted to whatever we threw at them. We will definitely recommend them to our friends and neighbors.
I can't say enough about these guys! They are great in every way. They work like dogs the whole time, they are very careful with your stuff and very pleasant to deal with. We changed our minds about where we wanted some things placed, and they shrugged it off without a care. They were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish!
