Full-service is definitely more convenientâbut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Hudson, IL | $408.32 | $1,085.66 |

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.

They did a great job in packing & loading the POD. They were on time and very polite and respectful. They worked very hard and would use them again.
They were on time ,in fact they were early ! Did a great job . Were very respectful on top of being hard workers. Diffently worth the help and price !!! Thank youso.... much. They were a blessing to me !!!
The two strong, young kids were very polite and professional. They notified us on their way over; did a walk through before they started the clock and took care with our property. They did a great job for us! I would recommend them.
Chris and his crew worked incredibly hard to move the contents of three storage units, a basement and a bedroom to our home in Normal. It took three trips in a 26' box truck from 12noon to 7 pm. It was an incredible amount of work but they kept moving until it was completed. We are so grateful we choose Illinois Valley Movers. They were careful, considerate and incredibly hard working. Len & Kathy
This crew was TERRIFIC - way better than was expected. They were on time, worked hard, did a great job, and even brought a lot of their own moving supplies. Absolutely no problems, and I'd hire them again in a heartbeat. Use these guys - you won't be disappointed.
Our two movers did amazing! They called us a little over 30 minutes before arriving to give us a heads up. They worked fast, loaded the truck like Tetris and all of our stuff was moved in perfect condition. We would definitely use them again in the future!
They started on time. They were very courteous. They worked steadily. They were knowledgeable about the best way to pack and unpack. They went above and beyond what we asked. In addition to this they treated the furniture with great care. I have used moving labor help in two household moves and these guys are the best of them all. I would highly recommend them in the future.
The two person team was on time and very efficient. They not only were patient with me deciding where furniture should be placed, but helped assemble my bed frame. I absolutely recommend them for future moving needs.
Chris and Josh provided an exceptionally professional service with helping us to move. They were punctual while being flexible with our timing needs. They were diligent throughout the time they were with us...no slacking on the job. They were also quite respectful of our property, and of my wife and kids. I'd definitely request their services again, and I'd recommend them to others!!!
Zack and Dalton were great! Arrived on time, and were very friendly and professional. Anything they weren’t sure about, they asked about instead of tossing it somewhere. Plus, the office called a couple of times ahead of the unloading day to make sure to confirm everything and get info ahead of time in case extra equipment was needed. I definitely recommend J & N!
We can't say enough about how pleased we were with Smooth Move Crew! They called ahead to confirm a window for their arrival time and then called again when they were on their way. Chris and Josh were courteous, professional and efficient. We will definitely call Smooth Move Crew for any future moving needs!
We had Keith and two other gentlemen help us. They did a fantastic job helping us move some heavy stuff down a tricky staircase. I would highly recommend them and I plan on utilizing them again in the future.

HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it.

All Hudson 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.
