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.

The men arrived early and were very courteous and respectful. My son and I were also helping them, which surprised them. They moved quickly and efficiently and were done before the 2 hours was up. To be clear, I was moving apartments within the same complex, from upstairs to down, so there were no trucks involved. I only asked for "a couple of guys" because that was all I needed. 10 out of 10, would definitely use Morris Moving again.
I am very happy with my experience hiring helpers for my move. The guys were on time. They worked hard and were very careful with my furniture. I would definitely hire them again.
They were right on time and contacted me to let me know when they were to be expected. Went above and beyond and package the pods perfectly. They were polite and curtious. I highly recommend Ray and his crew.
They are wonderful!!! Kind, caring, hard working individuals who truly seem to care about their work. People like this are rare. I feel very fortunate to have found them and would recommend them to anyone. They kept in constant communication, showed up on time and did a great job with my move.
We definitely have recommended our two men that helped us move into our storage unit. We met them early and it did not take long to finish up our move. We were in a 16x20 truck and had heavy furniture that we needed help moving. Great guys and the communication with us by the company and the guys was great.
These guys went above and beyond moving all of my husband's very heavy gym equipment. They worked tirelessly, non-stop, until the job was done. I am very pleased and I would definitely recommend them to others. They were on time, courteous, and careful.
The guys were AWESOME!! It was a rainy day. They worked very hard getting everything moved in from the truck.
They were pleasant and very hard workers!
I highly recommend this service!!
Jerome and his crew are the BEST!! I was skeptical that my 3/2 home would all fit in two Pods, but they did it! With room to spare. They were on time, courteous and very professional. Highly recommend.
James and his crew were on time and totally professional and capable. They got right to work and were careful with my furniture. They did a great job and I will be using them again when the remodel is done. Thank y’all for a great job.
I highly recommend Awesome Move Houston if you're looking for help moving. I just needed some muscle and they were great. They were on time, respectful, and willing to help in any way I needed.
They were on time, gentlemen an knew exactly what they were doing. If I ever need to hire a helper I would ask to have these two young men back to help us out. for sure. Fantastic job!!!
Marco and Laa arrived on time and got right to work. Handled everything with care. Had to make them take a break for lunch. I will use them again and would recommend to all my friends
You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in La Porte.
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 La Porte 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 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.
For helpful tips, step-by-step guides, and checklists, go to our packing hub.
