The Cost of Hiring Movers in Glen Ellyn, IL

On average, it costs $298.37 to hire moving helpers in Glen Ellyn, IL. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Glen Ellyn, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $71.10.

These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.

The Cost of Full-Service Moving

The average cost of a local full-service move in Glen Ellyn, IL is $763.71, with an average hourly rate of $125.36. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.

Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

My movers were amazing! Great communication with letting me know exactly when they would be there. They were on time and even a little earlier than expected. Came prepared with large rolling cart, they worked non stop and made sure all my fragile belongings were handled carefully. I would 100% use again, friendly, reliable service! Made the moving process as smooth as possible.

Chris and Victor did a fantastic job again! I hope we can get such an efficient crew to help us unload in Michigan. They again looked at what had to be moved and sized it all up. How they get so much in the Pod is amazing. Everything was well protected. 10/10!
