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.

Mike and Rick were on time and worked at lightning speed on a very hot day. Our couch was VERY difficult to move and they knew just what to do down to taking off a door to make it fit without causing any damage. Even though they were working hard and moving fast, they still made time to be friendly and personable and were fun to chat with. Thanks, guys!
My movers showed up on time and were ready to get started immediately. They continuously asked me for input on which boxes / furniture should go into each room before moving it and confirming it's placement inside. I only wish I had hired these guys to load my container in Virginia.
This was an awesome team; I highly recommend Handy Hands! Even though it was a really muggy day and the move was somewhat complicated, they were upbeat, energetic, and very fast! It was my first time using them, but they will now be my go-to choice for moving labor help. Thank you!
The 2 men sent were amazing and the most helpful people I've ever met. These gentlemen went above and beyond to help me out. You have no idea what a relief it was at such a stressful time. Recommend highly!!!!!
Amazing, efficient, friendly, accommodating just an all around first class service!! Would recommend to anyone!! They were worth their weight in gold!!
Dot and Erin were great! They were on time for the job, and conducted themselves professionally. They stayed 2 extra hours to see the job through. We highly recommend Dot and Erin.
Very respectful guys, were hired last minute. It was great that they showed up at the crack of dawn, as I knew they actually had to drive almost 2 hours to do the job! They worked hard and got the job done well, and very quickly.
Did a fantastic job! Reached out ahead of time and let me know when they were on their way. They were on time and got everything moved in the allotted time frame. And were incredibly nice as well. Highly recommend!
I would highly recommend this company to help move you. They were on time, polite and efficient. Price was reasonable. They came the day after I put in my request and I appreciated that they could help on short notice.
Arrived early, very prepared, worked very hard, very respectful, will use again and again. Both guys were beyond what I expected. Both guys were great. Very helpful and showed up to work. i give them 10 out of 10. Will use again in future, for sure. Great job!
My movers were terrific! They absolutely knew how to Tetris wildly different sized boxes into the POD, strapped everything in securely in multiple areas. They were efficient and hard- working, careful not to damage walls or floors and pleasant. I definitely recommend them to others.
Movers were not only on time but early. Even though it was very cold they worked incredibly hard. They were quick and very careful with all of our furniture, and did not scrape or damage any walls. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.
