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, itās considerably more affordable.

I wasn’t actually there but this review is via my wife and mother-in-law. Based off everything they told me it sounds like All-Star Movers are truly All-Stars! They knocked out a full 26 foot Uhaul in 1 hour, worked extremely hard, and were very friendly! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
They were on time and worked extremely hard. They moved our stuff to an upstairs apartment, and treated our stuff with care. We would definitely recommend. Thank you All-Star Movers!
They were great. Right on time. Worked so hard and with a great system, they moved 115 boxes of books (many from an upstairs area) to our pod (which we were able to park on our parking pad). Although we paid for two hours, they were finished in one.
Chris and his team did a wonderful job for us under a strict time frame. Very hard workers and cared about about our belongings. Would definitely keep them in mind for any future work and would recommend them to family and friends.
Very fast, efficient, and careful. All three (Jonathan, Evan, and John) were polite and friendly. Would definitely use and recommend them again. Thanks!
TJ and James were phenomenal. They were a few mins early and worked very hard! Not only did they respect our stuff but they were very respectful to us as well. They were prepared for the job and even helped us assemble our bed frame! We are very thankful for how great they were and how easy the hiring process was. We will be recommending them and hiring them again when we need help moving out!
The gentlemen were on time, worked very hard and no damage !!! Treated my wife and me like we were customers,thank you !!! A rare thing in today's world.
We couldn't be happier with the our All Star Mover team. They arrived on time, worked extremely hard loading our household goods and made every effort to insure our satisfaction. Our team lead, Jonathan Mosley, was polite, friendly and professional. If I had an occasion to use All Star Movers again in Memphis, I would insist on Jonathan and his team!
They arrived on time ready to work. They were professional and careful with my things. They unloaded my 16’ truck and placed the items in the storage area in 1 1/2 hours. They followed my instructions for storage exactly. Great Job!
The two gentlemen that unloaded our truck did a fantastic job. They had to deal with our three little kids getting in their way and they were really friendly with all of them. They were efficient and careful with our stuff and had a 26’ truck unloaded in right about 3 hours. Easily the best part of our move to Memphis.
Pleasant, polite, very professional. They handled my furniture carefully and loaded into the pod so that we could still add items if needed. Would highly recommend these two guys anytime.
The guys were very helpful - moved in very quickly and helped put together some items. Would recommend them for those that are looking for moving labor help.

One set of stairs is always included in your moverās rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more.
