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.

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!!!!!
I booked Handy Hands to help my parents move out of their home of 30 years, and this is what my mom had to say — “They were truly terrific! So hardworking and nice.” 100% recommend.
Kyle and his colleague showed up right on time, worked efficiently and professionally. They handled our belongings with care, and did everything asked of them. In addition, they were pleasant and had a good attitude. If the occasion arises, I'd definitely hire them again.
They were efficient, friendly and helpful They were very well versed in packing and arranging every thing I’ll use your service again and recommend to any one who asks or is moving
Arrived right on time and got right to work. They were careful, smart and took care of everything. Brought the tools needed to do the job and took no breaks. Even helped with a few items that were out of the scope of the job. Would definitely use again!
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.
The two gentleman sent to help were tops. Great guys definitely knew what they were doing. Also if you needed something else done ( with packing) they did it no questions asked. Thanks Mike and James.
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!
Dan and Mike from A.R.M.S. were awesome. An estimator told me that I had too much stuff to fit in a 16 foot PODS container. Dan and Mike made it all fit. Saved me money on the move. They're hard workers with a good sense of humor. -Bill Voorheesville, NY
Heavy Foot Movers were on time, reviewed the load requirements asked the right questions, and proceeded to complete the task. Careful, efficient, speedy, and smooth handling of all items. These guys were very impressive, real professional movers. Definitely would use them again. Neal Sorell, Delmar, NY
The guys were on time, they got right to work and unloaded a 16ft box truck in 2 hours. Impressive. They even went above and beyond to get the last few heavier items out that were in the front part of that truck as time almost ran out. Tell them thanks again
Worked very quickly and efficiently, careful with furniture, very nice people, would definitely use them again, a little late arriving but made up the time!
