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.

Peter and John, the apostles, were very prompt, efficient, polite and hard working. They were personable young men with a strong work ethic.. I would recommend them highly and would use them again if the need should arise. P. Main, KY
They got the job done in terms of our heavy stuff. We only paid for two hours and we got the 16’ pod emptied. I would have given them a higher rating bc they were on time polite and quick. The one draw back was they did put some spots on my walls. Mainly on the hairpin stair case. Nothing major, no nicks or dents. Nothing some paint couldn’t cover.
Here to There Movers were fantastic! They were on time, friendly, fast yet totally careful of all of or items. We only needed to directed them as to where to place things - it was great!
I must admit they had problems getting to Our location Josh to stay in touch to update us occasionally. When they arrived they were not in uniform so I was not sure it was them Then josh introduced himself and the group. They were all 3 courteous and polite. Once they started work they worked continuously until the job was done I would hire them again. Thanks to the crew
Isiah and his team were fantastic! They were very hardworking, efficient, and obviously skilled in moving furniture and packing a storage container. They were very respectful and careful with my belongings. I highly recommend All A-List Movers!
David and his crew were wonderful! They were very professional, communicated in advance of their arrival and were extremely hard working. They were efficient in helping my husband and I unload our POD as we moved into our new home. I’d highly recommend them for anyone in need.
Thank you for your energetic, efficient, enthusiastic, thorough and pleasant demeanor! You were excellent and we would definitely use your services again and will recommend to anyone we know. Great job!
