The Cost of Hiring Movers in Gurnee, IL
On average, it costs $394.28 to hire moving helpers in Gurnee, IL. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Gurnee, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $79.19.
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 Gurnee, IL is $646.83, with an average hourly rate of $137.61. 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.

Jay and Richard were right on time and worked quickly to complete the move. I would definitely work with them again, given the opportunity. Moving in the heat of summer is not an easy task but they made it go smoothly!
Great three person team. Worked very hard. Loaded two 16 foot PODS in 4 hours. Very good at packing to prevent damage.make sure you have moving blankets available and bungee cords that will fit into the PODS grommets.
The guys were great. Got right to work and helped us bang out the unload in less then 2 hours. Went out of their way to put things where we wanted them. Professional and personable.
KJ AND Greg were absolutely amazing. They were even early. They were efficient, careful, and packed our truck with ease and excellence. Thank you guys for helping us in our of our crooked house!
The Logan Lift Express Crew was very nice and helpful. They really got the job done... they went above and beyond their job for me...They worked really hard and they were very respectful of my item and my time. I would definitely use them again in the future!!
Cris and Victor were perfect. They were early and sized our move up quickly. They loaded more than we thought would fit in the Pod. Impressive young men. I hope they will be available for our next pod loading later in April.
Lavoe Movers was the best experience with movers I've ever had! They were on time, incredibly careful with all of my things, and very respectful. I would absolutely use them again!
I used them for packing a container. Great communication from the moment I booked to our scheduled time. Texted status and answered my questions before packing date Arrived promptly and worked the entire time. Did a great job of wrapping and packing all of our furniture and boxes.
We could not have been more pleased with the overall experience! From the upfront communications, the promptness of the (4) guys that showed up to their keenness of loading and unloading our moving truck. They were able to move items with no issues and look forward to using S & L Express Moving Services when we need them next!
I cannot say enough good about the 4 guys that came to unload our 3 moving containers! They were prompt, courteous, respectable of home with no damage! They finished well under the time I paid for! I would highly recommend them and you should have nothing to worry about!
they did great! they were early and helped me get all of my heavy studio items packed and to their next location safely. They handled the stairs so well and were super professional. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!
Don and Victor were amazing for our move! They worked hard for the entire time we had them. Very kind and proactive with asking where we would like our belongings. When the time comes for us to move again we will absolutely be booking with this company again!
