Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move
When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. 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 movers to load or unload your stuff.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably less expensive.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

The Cost of Moving in Lakewood, NJ
In Lakewood labor-only moving help typically costs between $319.53 and $687.19.
If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $91.70 an hour.
The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service
Even after factoring in the cost of a rental truck, gas, and supplies, labor-only moving usually costs less than half of what you’d pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenient—but that convenience comes at a price.

New Jersey | $373.38 | $988.18 |

These two young men were prompt and went about their chores quickly and efficiently. They listened to our requests and then were done in an hour and 15 minutes. Courteous and helpful they removed doors and moved everything. Thanks to bothj.
I can not say enough good things about my experience with Sharp Van Lines. They sent 3 guys who went right to work and never stopped. Wrapping furniture, taping boxes and loading the truck with such efficiency, I couldn’t believe they could fit all of my furniture. Don’t hesitate to hire them for your move.
The guys from Cimply Labor were wonderful. They wrapped EVERYTHING in plastic and disassembled furniture so that more stuff could fit into the POD. They were friendly, worked diligently and seemed to enjoy their work.
They were early, very early. Nonetheless, we all made it work to our advantage. Emil and his team did an excellent job. They were very well prepared and worked hard and efficiently. They were courteous and displayed respect for our property. The team wasted no time and moved smoothly from one item to the next. I would recommend Sharp.
We ordered a big pod for our Florida move. I would highly recommend this moving company and the 3 men that did our job. Ontime and respectful. We were nervous that everything was going to fit in the pod. But they kept assuring us it would.. we are magicians ?? and everything did! Thank you!
The company was efficient in setting up the appointment and kept me updated regarding arrival time and day ofadded charges if I went over my time, which I did. Two young men arrived on time, worked hard and were polite. Hopefully, when the pod reaches me at the final destination, there will be no damage attributed to them.
Awesome guys to work with. They were on time and did an amazing job packing our storage unit efficiently. The owner came and supervised the move which was a plus. Excellent customer service and friendly workers. Overall, I would highly recommend working with them since it was super easy!
-arrived on time -guys were very respectful of us and personal property -fast, they busted their butts in 90 degree weather - would definitely recommend and use them again
Astra Moving did a great job for us. I called them on the day of my move and they were able to accommodate my needs. The owner, Dan, was very responsive and was very thorough in his communication. The 2 workers (Romnel and Pepe) were very professional and friendly. They worked hard to get the job done. I would highly recommend Astra Moving without reservation.
Angel and Joseph were on time/early and completed unload in the allotted 2 hours! Very polite! Considerate and careful in handling and placing all items in doors. Highly recommend them both! Meg Melligan, Hightstown, NJ
They showed up on time, were very professional and extremely careful. These guys did a great job - I had a lot of big heavy furniture items and they took the time to ensure everything went perfectly and was installed without a scratch. I highly recommend this company - they made a stressful experience (moving) into a very simple process!
The movers were great, on time and professional! My issue is with Moving Staffers!!! They estimate the fee for the moving time of job, ex: 2 guys 2 hours, if it goes over the time it's $129 per hour, BUT if it's less, like over an hour less you don't get credit, bulls*#t!!! 1 (one) Star rating
