Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move

When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. 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 movers to load or unload your stuff.

While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably less expensive.

Moving Truck Included You Provide

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Islip Terrace, NY

In Islip Terrace labor-only moving help typically costs between $476.22 and $687.19. 

If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $68.45 an hour.

The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

Even after factoring in the cost of a rental truck, gas, and supplies, labor-only moving usually costs less than half of what you’d pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenient—but that convenience comes at a price.

Yusuf and Courtney are wonderful helpers, we payed for 7 feet trailer but ended up using only 4' !! Because they loaded up so securely and perfectly. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM. The moving was less stressful thanks to them.

They were very proactive in their communication on when they'd arrive, were extremely efficient, and experts at packing all of my stuff into a POD. Took them under two hours to have everything moved out of my 1 BR and in the POD. Would absolutely hire them again!

Eric and Ronin were fantastic! They arrived early (which was great!) and worked very hard; moving more furniture and boxes than I anticipated having. They communicated with me very clearly, and they finished in a very reasonable time frame.
