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.

They were very prompt and eager to help! Wrapped up my furniture and mirrors perfectly and took care with all of my items. They were very friendly and professional. I would recommend them to anyone needing help with their move!
We had a great experience with this moving company! Tony and Tim were fantastic—very efficient, careful with our belongings, and incredibly professional throughout the whole process. They made what could have been a stressful day go so smoothly. Highly recommend!
They were both very positive and upbeat which really helped my panic mode after prepping for the move for weeks. They were very reassuring and did an excellent job! Thanks
They were friendly and professional! They went above and beyond in loading and unloading our belongings and placing them where we wanted. They even helped fix a broken desk (not their fault) and hooked up the bed. I would definitely use them again for any type of move!
The guys showed up on time, listened intently to our needs, and performed their job at the peak of their abilities! They were super friendly and very, very helpful. Not just with the move, but with advice for the new area and suggestions of things to try out and avoid, etc. They were amazing!
I hired three men for three hours to load a two bedroom home and they completed the job in under the three hour mark! They were professional and I would recommend them.
They arrived in time as promised. Were very helpful and efficient in getting me unloaded and placing items in their respective places with my instruction . Even helped reconnect our trailer to our moving truck.
Showed up on time (a big plus compared to other services we’ve tried). The helpers were friendly, professional and quick. Would definitely use this service again
Tony texted me to confirm the details of the move and let me know their ETA, which was on time as agreed. Tony and Rico worked hard from the start, understood what we were looking to move and did a great job of taking up the least amount of space as possible on the truck. They were respectful of our property. We would use them again and highly recommend them. They did a great job!
These guys did a great job!! I think we were all worried that my stuff wouldn’t fit into the 8x8 Pod I had, but Timothy did some advanced Tetris!! Everything fit, I’m very impressed! Thank you again!
Dakota was absolutely amazing, and he even moved everything carefully in the rain. Had I known that he also provided services to the Orlando area, I would have stuck with him and avoided a nightmare. Thank you so much, Dakota; you cannot go wrong with booking him and his team.
The team - Timothy and Rocco - did a great job! They worked fast and did good job loading and securing the stuff in the POD container. Good communication too. Very helpful.

All Gilchrist 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.
