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.

The guys were great! They strategized and loaded up my two U-Pack Relo Cubes so that I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They also unloaded my U-Haul when I first got to town two years ago and did a great job then too. They’re great at what they do and are so nice. I’d definitely recommend them!
We needed two crew members to unload furniture from our moving truck and move it into our apartment. Kevin and Jay were excellent to work with. They arrived on time, were friendly, respectful and very careful with our furniture. I would definitely use them again and I would highly recommend them.
These guys were very nice and professional. I screwed up and didn't measure the opening for my fridge and they had to move 2 fridges twice, I felt horrible but they were nice about it, and at least made it seem like it wasn't to big of a deal. Highly recommend using them for any help
Bruce, Thomas, and Jharee did a fabulous job unpacking our POD today! They arrived even before schedule, they were professional, and they took great care in protecting our home and belongings. They even finished the job early, which resulted in a refund for us. We would definitely recommend them to other potential customers.
Kevin Blair, Dimitri and Jay were amazing! Porch Moving Team has the best team members! They came and did the job carefully and professionally. They were also fast and made sure all the furniture was exactly where we wanted it. Thank you!
Travis and Sam did some amazing work quickly and efficiently. Everything intact at destination. Friendly guys with excellent packing skills, able to squeeze a lot into a small space. Very respectful of our stuff. They brought a bonus helper named Chad who was also great. Will recommend to others.
Kevin and his team did a great job! They unloaded efficiently and with care. They were all very nice and great to work with. I will hire them again next time I move.
The American Moving and Storage team that unloaded our household goods did a fabulous job! They arrived on time, were efficient, professional, polite, and completed the job in less time than expected. We recommend them, highly!
They arrived on time and were ready to work! Each of the men were professional in how they interacted with me and how they handled my furniture taking care to make sure nothing was damaged. Everything was taken care of in the scheduled amount of time. I would DEFINITELY use American Movers again!
CW Movers did a fantastic job. They were very thorough protecting our stuff, loaded and unloaded the truck very timely, and worked very hard. They showed up on time ready to go. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to all family and friends.
Our workers today were excellent! They worked quickly, took great care with our household goods, were professional and friendly. We highly recommend them!
They were on time and waited even though I got delayed with the truck; unloaded everything quickly and put it where I needed it. They were careful with the objects we told them were fragile and were focused on getting me moved in. All in all a great experience.

All Lynchburg City 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.
