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.

The Cost of Moving in Los Angeles, CA
In Los Angeles labor-only moving help typically costs between $298.89 and $541.99.
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 $73.41 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.

They were early, after calling us to make sure it was okay! They worked carefully and efficiently too. Ivan and Carlos were great and gave us a helping hand on a couple of things….we didn’t have 2 hours-worth of moving and they stayed to help until their time was up. Many, many thanks!!!
They worked hard and were very courteous and helpful but forgot to put the tv on the counter, left it on the floor and forgot to plug in the recliner, so I’ll have to get help to lift it (to find the cord). I’m satisfied though and would recommend them as I truly got my money’s worth.
They were on time and fast. They worked hard and packed my trailer tightly saving me so much space and money. I recommend 3 movers, the extra person was key in keeping things moving during disassembling and demounting furniture and TV. I would book them again for a future move.
The movers at Advanced Moving were terrific! They were expert movers who packed my POD in such a way as to keep furniture from moving. They ensured enough space for my belongings and carefully moved and packed everything. I would use them again if I needed another move.
They did such a great job! I’m so relieved they were able to help my daughter and I move her stuff! Everything is packed so much better than we ever could have packed it!
John & Brian were AMAZING! One of our concerns was, did we order the right size container for all our stuff. We measured it, but thankfully John’s 11 years of experience allowed him to assess our situation and over deliver on our expectations. We HIGHLY recommend them for your moving needs.
Citywide Moving is HIGHLY recommended by us! They did a great and quick job unloading for us. Both were the most professional we have encountered during our whole move! We are already recommending them to family that will be moving this summer.
Absolutely wonderful job!!! I highly recommend them. They kept in communication and were VERY professional. Worked fast, and they were extremely careful and got everything done. I wish I could move again just to hire them!!!
Aron and Antonio were wonderful! They were fast and skilled, but also very kind and friendly. My entire experience with this company has been excellent. Highly recommend!
Antonio and Anthony were amazing! They unloaded our 16ft POD into an 2b2b apartment efficiently and quickly! Nothing was damaged as they were able to safely move everything. They finished in 2hrs which is definitely faster than I expected. Overall, fantastic experience and will definitely use them again in the future with any moving related needs.
Awesome guys, did a fantastic job. They arrived early, and prepared. Very helpful and cooperative. They got it done quickly, efficiently and without damage. I would definitely use them again.
Outstanding and polite crew! Loved everything about them: day before arrival communication via email confirming time and special items if any, showing up on time, handling everything with care and speed like no tomorrow. They really helped to ease moving stress I was dealing with. Can't recommend them enough. Thank you!
Real Advice from Los Angeles Movers
"Please make sure to contact your pick-up and drop-off administrations for guidance on any parking permits necessary during the move or POD placement, since the movers are not responsible for parking permits. Other than that, the general rule of thumb is to make sure the truck or a POD have enough parking space with a close access to the pick-up or drop-off facility."
- V&V Moving
"If you live in a highly-populated area like downtown Los Angeles or Hollywood, it's always best to secure parking a day before your move to avoid long carry. Not only do some movers charge for long carry, but it will lengthen the time of your move and will consequently cost more than it should have."

""Storage Etc." at 8111 Deering Ave., Canoga Park, CA 91304 has the best rates in the area."
