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.

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 Jacksonville, NC

In Jacksonville labor-only moving help typically costs between $301.44 and $568.71. 

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 $81.76 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.

The movers did a good job..However, difficult in trying to figure out who to call for changes to times. Communication breakdown between Hire a Helper and Loaders Moving. Also very long waiting times to get through to talk with someone.

They were fantastic. Very efficient and polite. They went over and above and put my bed frame together for me, arranged things as much as possible, unloaded a 16 ft, POD and swept out the POD all within the 2 hours. They were so friendly and really brought a positive spirit to the job. When looking for a mover their price was the most reasonable I could find. Very satisfied customer

I was a little nervous when these young men rolled up to load this container. I completely underestimated them. They packed our storage container so efficiently and quickly, every inch was used. They lifted the heaviest items with ease and were so kind. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Very professional and friendly. They had a person call in sick and kept me up to date. Was very fair with adjusting the price. They were quick, friendly. Being a new transplant I was very comfortable interacting with the movers in person and the contact person via text and phone. Will definitely use again!

The team of three young men (Brian, Brett and Brad) were EXCELLENT!! They were pleasant, friendly and efficient! They completed the unloading and furniture set in less time than our loading experience at your previous home. Cape Fear Provisioners of NC LLC are the best in the business and we wholeheartedly recommend them for moving services. Regards, Dan O’Connor and Cathy Fulton
