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, itâs considerably more affordable.

Glen and his co-worker were great. They carefully emptied the POD and placed the items as requested. They were friendly and professional, worked hard and got the job done. Put together the bed for me which was a major help. Good Job!!! I'd definitely hire them again.
They showed up on time. Even though I didn’t need them for the entire 2 hours, they offered to do anything else I might need. I appreciated that offer, but it wasn’t required. I just needed help with big pieces of furniture. I would definitely recommend them.
They were amazing. Showed up on time at 7:00am, unloaded our 26' truck quickly and professionally, and were done before our deadline to return the truck. Highly recommend.
The 3 gentlemen from 5 Star movers did a fantastic job. They were kind, friendly and polite. They worked hard and efficiently. I have moved multiple times over my career and they were the best. I would highly recommend them for any move.
Edgar, the boss man of Move Maker was efficient, safe and thorough. He was customer service oriented and his two other workers were busting their butts. I highly recommend Move Maker with Edgar and his gang. Super hard worker!!! Worth the money. FIVE STARS for sure Ben Mahi New transplant to Vancouver from Hawaii
The guys were great and DJ is a puzzle master at fitting the maximum possible in the pod. The crew worked tirelessly from the moment they arrived until they were done. They also went out of their way to expertly wrap the few items I hadn't. Great job!
From the moment I made my reservation, this team has been extremely professional and very caring. On moving day they arrived and immediately took the stress out of our stressful move. So kind and so respectful. Great great great!!!! I highly recommend J&M for all your moving needs. Thank you!
Jose and Julio were great. Worked hard. Did some very difficult work with good humor. Packed the truck to perfection---I never thought all that stuff would go in and fully expected to have to hire a second vehicle, but they made it work. Everything, including a TV and a Very large framed picture arrived safe and sound. I'm doing another move in a few weeks and plan to ask for them again.
The crew arrived on time and were bery professional. They took care of the items marked fragile and were able to load all of the items onto the truck. When we got to our destination, nothing had been broken. I would highly recommend them and plan on using them again.
Ronnie and LA did an awesome job! I'm 63 and was exhausted from the week I had spent packing and loading, so I sat, pointed, and instructed --- they did all the rest. It really, really was "stress free"! If I have to move again (and, hopefully, I won't!), I will be giving them a call. Thanks guys!
The guys were awesome! Very knowledgeable about loading and fitting everything in the truck in such a way it would be protected!! Kenneth and Rich were great guys to work with as well! They were professional and had workers!! We highly recommend them!!
The movers did an amazing job, they took great care with all of my items. They are very much appreciated. I am going to recommend them to my colleagues and friends.

All Longview 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.
