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, itâs considerably more affordable.

Joseph and Tyler were very hard workers. They packed the truck well, leaving very little dead space. On top of that, they were very nice to deal with.
The movers were on time and communicative throughout the whole process. They brought all the equipment they would need, such as straps to carry our stupid heavy dresser up a flight of stairs. They didn't complain once, even though I have like 30 boxes of books and I've never had a mover not complain. I would use them again in a heartbeat.
As a military veteran and the child of a career army officer I have moved tens of times. These are by far the best movers I’ve ever had. Thoughtful, considerate, hard-working, personable, flexible, and very, very smart. Thank you for an easy peasy move! If I could take them with me to Tennessee to have them unload, I would certainly do it!!!
I had a moving crew simply not show up. I was sick with a fully loaded 16’ truck with nobody to unload it. Marshall and his crew came in on a last minute call, on their third move of the day, to save the day. Thanks for the help!
The guys did a GREAT job, got the whole truck unloaded in a quarter of the time it took us to fill it!! They were super nice & respectful, we had a great experience. Thank you so much!
We hired two men for two hours and they were amazing. The men arrived on time, worked hard and had the job done in two hours. These guys were respectful of everything and did the job very well. I didn't place my order for movers until Wed for a Sunday job and O'Hartigan's were the movers to use. Thank you for your help with our move. We would definitely call you again.
Overall great experience! The movers were friendly, respectful and hardworking. They took special effort to communicate throughout the move for items needing specific attention. The movers took extra lengths to ensure fragile and wood furniture were wrapped and taken care of appropriately. I will definitely use this company in the future!
Outstanding service! On time, courteous and friendly. They went above and beyond to get everything offloaded in the time window. Worked hard start to finish with no wasted time. Can't say enough good things about the team they sent. Will use them again if I need to move. Would definitely recommend them.
My workers, Chris and Dot, arrived on time and worked very hard. They were respectful of our possessions and where we wanted them placed. I found them both personable and professional. I would recommend them to anyone who wanted good movers.
These folks were fast, careful, and friendly. We were so impressed with their hard work!! They moved everything efficiently and as though it were their own. Thank you!
Green Mountain Movers we’re excellent! Another moving company in NY cancelled last minute due to COVID and Green Mountain Movers came that day. Tamara had excellent communication, the team worked hard, careful with boxes, positive attitude and they got the job done in quoted time. I rarely give reviews but appreciate reading them so I’m passing along the 5 star recommendation today.
This was my first time using a moving labor helping company. My overall experience was a very positive one. The guys were on time, took care of any concerns I had, worked as fast as I did, and were a pleasure to have around.

All Jay 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.
