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.

Crew was on time and did excellent work loading and unloading the furniture and all boxes. The transfer was on time and manage to dismantle and assemble the large king size bed.
Charles took care of everything and was patient with me. He shrink wrapped my leather couch which I really appreciated. Easy to book and was just what I needed. Granted I was very prepared. But they came in got the stuff moved to the pod, rearranged things to balance the load and tied it down securely.
Moving Champion did a great job moving and packing our furniture into containers. They were on time, worked hard, and were very respectful of our property. I would definitely use them again!
The gentlemen who unloaded my containers were really good and even pointed out any broken items from the way the other guys packed the containers. I greatly appreciated them pointing out those items. They were all very nice, polite and professional.
The fellas took care of, they were professional, careful, and even looked good. Nate and Angel are both to be considered a great asset to your company! They Both should be consider for a substantial raise and Christmas bonus…
The movers arrived on time, were polite and personable, and got the job done quickly and efficiently. Even went out of their way to help move furniture left in the apartment back to where it was initially. What more could you ask for?
Great work. Hard work! Done! Angel and Uzbel arrived as expected. Got directly to work, clarifying what I needed done before starting. Very effective, personable, & professional. Above & beyond! Thank you SOOOO MUCH! Dr. Krista Robertson
Great Job and Awesome Team. Punctual, respectful and personable. Emptied our POD with care and moved the boxes and furniture with care into our new home. Highly recommend them and would definitely use them again if the need arises.
Hired this team to move my belongings into a storage unit and they were excellent from start to finish. They arrived on time, handled everything carefully, and worked efficiently. They packed the storage unit thoughtfully and organized everything so it is easy to access and makes sense. Great communication, respectful crew, and very reliable. Highly recommend!
They were behind schedule so I had to call them. However, they switched days upon my request, so that definitely helped. Once they arrived, they worked fast, careful and efficiently. Highly recommend! Thank you fellas!
I’ve never hired movers before so wasn’t sure what to expect. I was geared up for the worst from different stories I had heard about movers! I couldn’t have been more wrong! These 2 guys showed up early-even before the moving truck did. They were kind, courteous, friendly, professional, and FAST! Certainly knew what they were doing!! Great job!
Mike and his team are amazing. Definitely I will recommend them to everyone. Very professionals, treat your furniture with care. Manny awesome guy??. Highly recommended.Thank you so much. Definitely I will continue supporting them for my next moving job. Thank you

All Manatee 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 SmartProtectionā¢āan 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 moverās 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 haveāmake 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.
