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, it's considerably more affordable.

Very respectful. Called to verify time and we're going to be running a little late. Called often to update me and were there At the time they gave me. I had quite a few glass items- large curio cabinet and an antique China closet and they handled them with great care. Placed items where I asked and asked what else they could do for me!
They were on time, prepared and worked hard on a very hot day. They brought up anything that would be of concern. It took them 1 hour to unload the pod. They were paid for up to 2 hours.
Arrived within window. Very knowledgeable about packing for long distance move. Worked very hard and efficiently. Were careful with fragile and odd-shaped items. Would definitely use John and Joel again.
The two gentlemen did an excellent job. They very helpful and courteous. We planned on four hours and made it in less than three. Can’t say enough about how great they did. Thank you so much for everything!
Best money I have ever spent. I mean it if you are moving and can afford it spending money on movers saved so much stressed and ache. Turned moving a house to just worrying about unpacking the boxes.
The three gentler arrived a few minutes early, were professional, personable and very helpful. I will use them and highly recommend them. They exceeded expectations. And boy do they know how to pack.
2 young guys arrived on time and went right to work wrapping and loading the Uhaul....it was a horribly hot humid day but they did very well despite the weather! we did have cold bottled water for them tho and they sure appreciated that....job well done!
Wonderful service, professional and pleasant. They arrived ahead of schedule, worked extremely hard and were very respectful of the property and things being moved. If the need arises I would most certainly use them again.
They were on time, friendly, and new what they were doing! They immediately set to work, and worked at top speed with no breaks; and met their alloted time. All this on a chilly, rainy day!
John and Chris were great! They were on time, considerate of our home and furnishings and very polite. We will highly recommend your services!!! Thank you!
The two men who showed up worked four hours without a break. They did an excellent job and took care of our furniture not to break anything or damage our items.
Hired BingServ to help unload a 40' container of medium sized boxes for my business. Guys arrived on time and worked hard. Not much more you could ask for. Will hire again.

All Kirkwood 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.
