The Cost of Hiring Movers in Island Lake, IL
On average, it costs $347.39 to hire moving helpers in Island Lake, IL. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Island Lake, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $76.97.
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 Island Lake, IL is $946.79, with an average hourly rate of $125.62. 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.

KJ and James were so helpful! They arrived early, stayed an extra hour to finish the job, communicated well, and everything was expertly packed. None of our furniture or boxes had budged an inch after a six-hour drive.
Logan Lift Express did an amazing job helping us move out of our apartment! They were professional, careful, efficient, and creative when our stuff did not easily fit in our moving truck. We would highly recommend them and look forward to using them again in the future.
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 went above and beyond to make sure all of our stuff was moved safely and swiftly. The owner was so nice and made sure we were well taken care of. We can't thank them enough for all their hard work! There's a reason they're rated #1!!!
Joshua and Jaih were fast, efficient and very hardworking! It worked out that we both could arrive early and they finished even earlier. The move went smoothly because of them- highly recommend!!
Ricky and Jaden were awesome! They moved the stuff out of our 16ft truck in around an hour and a half, including 2 big sofas! They were great and would definitely recommend them
Akeem L and Korben F were wonderful. Very helpful, fast workers. When I complete my move I will ask for them again. Great job guys! Thank you so much.
The workers worked incredibly hard. They were very polite. They packed things SO well in the truck. They did not damage any walls when they moved very heavy and cumbersome furniture through tight spaces. I would definitely recommend them.
They were absolutely fantastic! Kept us informed regarding arrival, we’re extremely polite and incredibly efficient. They had our home loaded in under an hour. Only issue was some confusion around our order regarding number of staff and number or hours. Took a little effort but was resolved
Hakeem and Ricky were incredible help. Were onsite 15 minutes early. Helped me wrap and disassemble a few pieces to ensure theyd be safe on the journey and had the job completed 30 minutes before my time was even up. Can't recommend enough.
Andy and Bat were wonderful! Excellent service. Highly recommend. My furniture was wrapped carefully and thoroughly which I very much appreciated. Thanks guy!!!
The 4 gentlemen that helped with my move were amazing. They were prompt, worked hard and fit all my stuff in a small container and made it look easy. Could not recommend them enough.
