The Cost of Hiring Movers in Lake Station, IN
On average, it costs $302.18 to hire moving helpers in Lake Station, IN. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Lake Station, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $73.10.
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 Lake Station, IN is $943.43, with an average hourly rate of $121.09. 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.

Super nice guys. Never stopped working. Always asked before picking things up and where to put them. Showed up early, and even asked to help further. Highly recommend.
Tyrone and his partner were excellent. They called to let us know when they would arrive, and were very professional the entire time. They were able to evaluate the items we had to load, and get everything loaded very quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend this crew!
Phenomenal job, very professional and helpful. Went above and beyond to assist with getting furniture moved in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend!
These guys hustled their butts off, we’re courteous and careful to protect walls from scuffs and items being moved. Used them for my move out into storage containers, and now using them again for my move in activities
I am totally satisfied with the 2 man team of movers that provided the service of moving all our personal belongings into a 2 bedroom apartment on the top floor under grueling heat conditions and very narrow stairs. I will highly recommend their service as a job well done. Thank you for all your help.
I booked them for 1-2 start time and they arrived about 2:10p. Once they were here, they were on it! Not alot of standing around and were careful of our things. They made sure to ask questions when needed! I’d use them again no doubt!
Two young men went above and beyond working tirelessly. My only complaint is I was told by the person on the phone I would be able to add extra time if needed and although I needed more time the men were not available as they were scheduled for two more jobs today.
The 4 gentlemen that helped with my move were amazing. They were prompt, worked hard and fit all my stuff in a small container and made it look easy. Could not recommend them enough.
Lavoe Movers was the best experience with movers I've ever had! They were on time, incredibly careful with all of my things, and very respectful. I would absolutely use them again!
Victor and Don did a great job! They were friendly and courteous as well as thorough and efficient. Above and beyond as Don had an injury and still worked through it! I highly recommend.
Jay and Richard were right on time and worked quickly to complete the move. I would definitely work with them again, given the opportunity. Moving in the heat of summer is not an easy task but they made it go smoothly!
The team was incredibly professional, nice, and efficient! We were very happy with the evrything they did, we would recommend them to everyone! We appreciated how they took the extra time and were so conscious about safety. BIG THANKS!
