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, it’s considerably more affordable.

Workers arrived when they said they would and were ready with all the necessary equipment. They were very careful with three oversized bookcases and had everything set up within the booked time. I'm very pleased and will definitely use them again should the need arise.
TC Movers texted me to let me know what time they would arrive on packing day. They arrived on time! I had hired them to pack a POD. I showed them what needed to be packed & they got started! They worked quickly & efficiently. Very friendly! I would highly recommend TC Movers!
Overall good experience, the team arrived early and finished early ( the house was small so not a whole lot of stuff). They were strategic about placement and made sure to pack the truck to prevent things moving around too much.
The 4 gentlemen were absolutely wonderful. They arrived on time and did the job in the 3 hours allotted. They worked together like a well-oiled machine. They were strong and able to lift items like they were nothing. I would highly recommend Hire a Helper.
We had a wonderful experience with BingServ. The three gentlemen who unloaded our moving trailer were very considerate of all of our furniture and belongings. They were very polite and completed the job quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend BingServ
These guys were great. When they arrived I was feeling really overwhelmed. They put me at ease and jumped right in. I’m so appreciative of their help and professionalism. Thank you!
The team arrived on time, were friendly, respectful of us and the items to be moved. They worked well together and were efficient. Would definitely recommend in future. Communication and reminders from the company were excellent.
Wonderful service, professional and pleasant. They arrived ahead of schedule, worked extremely hard and were very respectful of the property and things being moved. If the need arises I would most certainly use them again.
They were not on time but they called ahead of time to apologize and inform me that they might be a little late. When they arrived, they tackled the job at hand efficiently and finished in less than 2 hours! They are nice and respectful!
Easiest 5 star review ever! The guys were on time, professional, and efficient. Very hard working in both the rain and the brutal heat. Highly recommend and hope to work with them again! Thank you!
I was extremely satisfied with the company and the workmen. Everyone was on time and friendly and helped me throughout the process. The men worked quickly and efficiently. I would recommend Family Moving and Hire a Helper in the future. They were reliable. This company made my day. Thank you.
Thomas and Chris were fantastic. They were professional and polite. They made sure our furniture was protected and worked quickly and carefully. We could not have asked for a better team. We will recommend Hired Helpers to everybody. Best and stress free moving experience ever!!! Many, many thanks!

Why Book Your Honesdale Move with HireAHelper?
Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Honesdale
You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Honesdale.
The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
All Honesdale 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 SmartProtection™—an 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 mover’s 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 have—make 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.
