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, it's considerably more affordable.

I needed help moving a couple King Mattresses up a very long flight of indoor stairs, one was already stuck in the stair well from my wonderful efforts. These guys were very professional, courteous, and did their job well. We were concerned with the ceiling being damaged and they didn't touch the ceiling at all. Thank you so much, we will need your services again at the end of June.
We highly recommend Mountain movers. They were on time, polite and respectful of us and our things. What they packed into a trailer was amazing, we really didn't think it would all fit, but they did it all and were wonderful. 100 stars!
Moving team was a puzzle master when packing my belongings on my moving truck. The load didn’t move at all from Buffalo,NY to North Carolina. Thank you so much !!!
Had a great experience with this team, they loaded up my moving van in short order and even provided me with packing supplies that I'd forgotten to bring. They were prompt, professional, and very friendly. Couldn't have done it without them, highly recommended.
Awesome experience! The guys didn’t waste a minute and got everything done fast and efficiently, while making sure everything made it to my new place in mint condition. Highly recommend!
They showed up on time and were very professional and smart about how to pack, prepare and load the container. I would certainly use them again and highly recommend them to anyone who needs packing and moving. And they finished early! Chester from OP
I was very happy with the work this team did. They were on time and finished the job in the time limit I paid for. They came in and got to work right away and did not stop until the work was done. As they were packing they asked questions and answered my own questions. Very nice and sweet team of the people.
These people were wonderful. They worked extremely hard and were friendly and knowledgeable is packing a rental truck. Very worthwhile in using these folks to help with any difficult task.
Super friendly and very hard workers. I was concerned whether all our stuff would be able to fit on the truck, but they worked diligently fitting everything like a great puzzle. Everything made it onboard. I would recommend them to anybody.
Lucas and Logan were absolutely amazing! They were on time, highly capable, enthusiastic, friendly, cheerful, careful, efficient, and respectful of us and our home.
Terrific movers! Very accommodating and helpful getting everything arranged and put together, careful with my things not to damage anything, got there on time and worked quickly - could not ask for a better moving experience.
They did a great job when they got here, but unfortunately I rented a U-Haul and they were 2 1/2 hours late so that cost me more money. They never told me they had another job in the morning they’re supposed to be here between eight and nine, otherwise they were very respectful they did a great job and I would hire them again
