HireAHelperâs Best Price Guarantee Find a lower price for the same move? Weâll match it. You can book with the confidence that you are getting the best value for your move. Learn more. |
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 youâd pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenientâbut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Galax, VA | $333.13 | $1,099.54 |
| Virginia | $426.39 | $1,099.54 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $333.13 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Galax, VA, with an average hourly rate of $81.17. Your final price will depend on how long your move takes.
To get a better sense of what your move might cost, you can see the average cost for different-sized moves in the table below. Learn more about HireAHelper's methodology for calculating average costs based on proprietary data from over 1 million moves.
| Home Size | Average Cost | Average # of Movers | Average # of Hours |
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | $309.83 | 2.13 movers | 2.1 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $356.64 | 2.13 movers | 2.3 hours |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | $416.22 | 2.13 movers | 2.6 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | $406.51 | 2.51 movers | 2.5 hours |

| 4 Bedroom House | $568.12 | 3.51 movers | 3 hours |
| 5 Bedroom House | $671.47 | 3.51 movers | 3.9 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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $$$ | $ |
| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | â | â |
| Unloading Help | â | â |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |

135 Galax Mover Reviews
On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 331,485 verified customer reviews
They arrived on time. Worked continuously to move my items from the storage POD to the rooms each set of furniture needed to go. They were very respectful and I would certainly used their services again
Our two helpers were on time, and very nice, polite and helpful. The reason I’m giving only four stars is that they were not experienced, professional movers, and needed help figuring out the best way to move the heavier items. They also brought no equipment. With some training and basic equipment for the job, they would have been perfect!
It was raining and I moved into a 2nd floor apartment. The guys were fantastic and worked very hard. They set up both beds and took extreme care bring my things in. I would highly recommend these guys.
They did their job very nicely. They came almost on time. They were fast and very thoughtful, very friendly and considerate. They were very careful to protect my stuff and they loaded the truck like an art work. I will recommend them to everybody without any doubt. My thanks to them.
They were on time and were hard workers. They were respectful of our belongings. They were accomodating...we asked if we could move them to later in the day and they did.
Great group! They came in and were efficient and careful unloading our stuff. Very friendly and worked hard to get the move done in the time we asked for. We would definitely use them in the (far) future for another move.
This crew was the best we have ever hired! They were quick, careful, professional, and had great personalities. We highly recommend them to anyone who ever needs great movers.
These guys asked me what I wanted where I wanted and from the second they started moving they didn't stop it was hot hot hot! If you need somebody to help you move call these people immediatley.
Worked continuously and were very careful moving items and keeping house and items damage free. Highly recommend this crew. Hope I get them for the following pods. Very respectful and super nice and put everything where asked.
Mychael & Rutherford (sorry if we have the names incorrectly spelled) we’re absolutely wonderful! Both very friendly, courteous, respectful and hard workers. We appreciated their help finalizing our unload at our storage. I would recommend these two for anyone needing anything done in the way of moving. Five stars is what I give the two of them. Michelle L.
They were late due to their car broke down, but when they arrived they worked very hard. They were polite and respectful of my things. I would reuse them again.
They were very prompt, courteous and professional. They really hussled and worked hard to complete the loading of our 26 foot truck in two hours! Awesome job!!

Why Book Your Galax Move with HireAHelper?
Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Galax
You've got moving questions, weâve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Galax.
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 Galax 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.
