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.

These guys were phenomenal. They are like human machines. Lightning fast speed in packing and moving the freight. Very well spoken, very polite, and highly respectable. They made this difficult task look like child's play. I will rate these guys 11/10 seven days a week.
Exceptional work from Billy and Tom! They had the trailer and truck cleared out super fast and did a wonderful job! Thanks for making the first few hours in Florida that much easier!
These guys really "turned and burned"! POD completely unloaded in 2 hours, adjustable bed assembled and all boxes organized by room. Outstanding performance. Thank you!
Loading team arrived early and completed the job in one hour even though they had a two hour block. Very courteous, wrapped what they needed to wrap, used a hand truck that made it much more efficient and safer for them and did an excellent job packing the POD. They said I could have used a smaller truck because of the way they packed. Outstanding job and service. Thank you so much. Mj
Movers worked extremely hard on this job, they completed the job within the hours they were hired for. Really nice group of guys and would highly recommend them again. Thanks again !
They Saved us after other company hired No Showed! The guys were professional and knew what they were doing. All objects were in good shape after 6 hour trip out of State! Definitely recommend High Five!
Steve, communicated well, showed up on time (called 15 min ahead) and was professional, and went above and beyond. Pricing was fair and upfront, and he took such care to ensure our items were secure and protected. I could not be more pleased. Thank you Steve, you rock!
This was superb fast professional service all the way around! They packed my Pod. Asolutely knew exactly what they were doing. I wish I could use the same team to unload at the destination but a thousand miles away. Do this, hire this team.
Easy Lift Movers certainly made emptying our POD look easy. The gentlemen were polite, careful and didn't stop moving until they completed the job. They placed items and boxes wherever we wanted them in our house. Even with the rain and a few steps to go up they never stopped and did their work with a positive attitude. I would not hesitate to hire the Easy Lift Movers again.
Very careful, conscientious men who took pride in wrapping furniture with padding and plastic! Very reasonable cost compared to hiring movers as I have previously done. I will be hiring them again to move my belongings once my home that was heavily damaged by Hurricane Irma is restored.
Daniel and Victor did a wonderful job! They were on time, very courteous and got all my items moved into my apartment in 30 minutes. Two very hard working gentlemen. If I ever need to move again I will definitely use Happy Moving!! ??
Richard and Keith did an excellent job! Showed up on time and were very efficient! They were very careful with our belongings and moved our entire house with no damages. We would definitely recommend! Very friendly and personable. Thank you!!!

All Highlands 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.
