The Cost of Hiring Movers in La Quinta, CA

On average, it costs $467.70 to hire moving helpers in La Quinta, CA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across La Quinta, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $94.00.

These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.

The Cost of Full-Service Moving

The average cost of a local full-service move in La Quinta, CA is $829.69, with an average hourly rate of $122.86. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.

Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

Communication with the company was great. They were able to get the movers out to me a little earlier than the set time which helped me out a lot. The guys were really nice and friendly and they did a great job getting my things moved. Would definitely recommend them.

Vladimir and his partner were perfect. They handled everything with care and were pro-active at unwrapping and checking contents to make sure I was happy with how my belongings had fared after traveling 1,000 miles to my new home. Use them — you’ll be happy, too.

Fantastic crew! Really outdid themselves packing the 16 ft pod like a jigsaw puzzle. Would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a move using PODS and needing help packing the pod.

Two helpers showed up on time with proper supplies and worked efficiently to load up an entire pod. They went above and beyond and I was very impressed and would hire them again in a second.

Packing and filling our storage pods was handled professionally and carefully. Vladimir and his assistant did a great job, not one item shifted in our pods during transit. I highly recommend Facemove Inc.
