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. 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 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 more affordable.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

The Cost of Moving in Jefferson, WI

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.

| Jefferson, WI | $514.13 | $1,263.71 |
| Wisconsin | $514.13 | $1,263.71 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |

Akeem L and Korben F were wonderful. Very helpful, fast workers. When I complete my move I will ask for them again. Great job guys! Thank you so much.
Other than them arriving late, not due to their fault, the guys were terrific. They managed to get my twin beds, king split bed, 3 night stands, 2 recliners, and a large coffee table in one small packing cube. They were very nice guys, performed a miracle ??
The two young men were on time and they started right away moving the furniture in being careful with the pieces…we were amazed that it was done so fast … and I certainly would use them again.
They double-checked all the details with me ahead of time, showed up early with the right tools, and got straight to work. The crew was respectful, careful with my belongings, and pushed through the 90° heat without slowing down. They worked hard start to finish and took excellent care of everything they moved.
On time all 3, supervisor was early. Yes, prepared. Yes, they worked hard. Respectful of my property for the most part. However, during the middle of the move, there was a bit of discrepancy amongst the movers & seems one got a little upset, then he started dropping some of my items. He did apologize but it happened several times. Yes, I would use them again.
The team did a great job and communicated when the job was going to start a little late due to the previous job running over. They were courteous and friendly and handled the work as needed. They also communicated well when asking for where items should go. It rained on our moving day and they utilized the towels I laid out to protect our newly refinished floors.
Al and his team were wonderful! Al called multiple times to confirm our appointment time and date, the number of workers I requested, and the hours needed for the job. His team worked quickly and efficiently to get my U-Haul truck packed up and made things as easy as possible for me. I'd highly recommend them to anyone who needs help with moving.
Fred and his team did awesome!! They arrived early, and were especially kind when we were running behind. They moved all of the stuff efficiently and carefully. They were kind and super helpful, and if I ever move in Madison I’ll make sure to use them again.
Exactly what we needed and wanted! Al and Rob did a great job. Checked in a few days before to get a clear understanding of the job and confirm arrival time and location. Arrived on time. Worked efficiently and with great care. Friendly. Respectful. I would call them again with no hesitation. Highly Recommend!
They were on time and even waited almost 2 extra hours before starting as my moving truck was way behind schedule. They worked hard, efficiently, and were really enjoyable to be around even with delays on my part. Would absolutely recommend.
The crew arrived on time. Briefed me on plan for offload. Very courteous, patient. asked questions throughout the load to ensure proper placement in my home. Hardworking, worked as a team. Highly recommend.
The two gentlemen that moved our items were very respectful. They carefully and skillfully moved the items into the PODS. In fact, I would call them Magicians because I truly did not think all our things were going to fit and they found a way! They were easy to talk to and understand what they needed. I would highly recommend them.

The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
All Jefferson 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 SmartProtection™—an 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 mover’s 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 have—make 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 for 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.
