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 workers were fantastic. They were very professional. Very helpful and went above and beyond what they had to do. I would recommend them highly. Thank you for everything
They were on time and worked straight thru for 3 hours and I added 1 more hour to help remove trash and furniture not going with me. I would recommend them for additional work.
Arrived on time, strong work ethic, clear experience with moving a variety of heavy items. Clear communication, very polite. Got many heavy and bulky items around a tight staircase. Some items did not fit but they tried everything possible and repacked them into the truck for me with a great attitude. Would recommend.
Top Shelf Labor Services LLC were fantastic! They arrived on time, took great care moving all of our items, and moved everything quickly within the allotted time. Communication prior to our move was also clear. I would absolutely recommend them.
Both men are friendly, helpful, respectful and answer all my questions regarding to some packing and moving my stuff to the PODS and after to secure all boxes to protect against shifting while traveling to the final destination.
The movers were very polite and hard working. They did an excellent job and got as much in my POD as they could. It was a lot of work from them and no complaints. I highly recommend them!!
I cannot say more great things about this company. Everyone was super professional and walked me through every step of the process. I was nervous not all our stuff would fit in the POD but somehow it did. Will definitely be using this company to move into my new house.
Came on time, actually a few minutes early. Went right to work getting my 16ft POD emptied. Worked quickly and made sure to ask me where everything was to go for all the rooms. Courteous from beginning to the end. They also checked with me if there was anything else that I needed before they left. I would definitely use them again.
The men showed up on time, listened to our instructions and moved everything into the POD quickly and efficiently. They were professional and cheerful. The entire procedure was smooth. Highly recommend!
Hector and team are amazing. They are very detailed, explain their process and are extremely careful with your home and furniture. Also very friendly and keep you updated as they progress. Looking to hire them again in a few weeks.
Karim and his two workers were on time. They were exceptionally hard workers, very polite and respectful of my home. They accomplished packing more than I expected into the pod. I would most definitely hire them again.
Julio and Angel are amazing movers and Packers for our pod. They were friendly efficient and very professional. It was a pleasure doing business with them.

- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it. That means you donât pay extra to use HireAHelperâin fact, you may save money.
All Lakehurst 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.
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.
