Full-service is definitely more convenientābut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Marengo, IL | $399.56 | $1,126.40 |

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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | ā | ā |
| Unloading Help | ā | ā |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |

The whole team was amazing! One of them actually helped unload when we moved in. I would highly recommend them if you want a team that stays focused and gets the job done.
This team was awesome! Got here in time, nice guys and went the extra mile to make sure everything was placed where we needed it. Worked miracle to get our king mattress up a flight of stairs it has no business fitting through. Was so impressed!
They were on time. They cared about protecting your furniture and delicate items. They worked fast and are very strong for the heaviest dressers and appliances. I would use them again in a heartbeat!
The couch potatoes ,LLC. did an awesome job. they were there when i needed them and packed the truck and unloaded the truck to complete my move thank you
Ricky and the Crew were great. They actually called said they could come earlier if I was ready worked out perfect. They were so quick getting my 1 bedroom loaded and packed everything in the truck was perfect no problems with anything moving on the Long ride. Would definitely recommend them ?? Thanks again
Wonderful team. They were focused on making sure we were going to be happy after they lefts I going to have that team come back to help me finish my move.
Chris Ricky and Akim were fantastic! Very professional, very thoughtful and very careful. Not to mention that these guys are some of the nicest guys you can work with! I highly recommend this company!
Tyrone and Darnell did a great job unpacking our pod! They were very careful with our furniture and boxes. They made sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it. I would highly recommend them!
Chris and his crew are great and they know how to pack a moving vehicle (truck/Pod, etc.). For this move I wasn't sure everything would fit into a 16 foot pod but Chris was able to organize the loading so that everything made it! They also work hard and are quick. I definitely recommend Logan Lift Express for your move.
Victor and Ricky were amazing!!! From the moment they arrived they were polite, shook hands and analyzed the job ahead and got to work. They packed the truck perfectly. I must say only 3/4 of the 16ft truck was used and after the 1,000 mile drive not one item was askew. I would def use them again and recommend them to my friends!!
They arrived when expected and got right to work. They worked very hard the whole time they were here. I think they protected the furniture in the pod but I’ll only know when I unload it months from now. But for now, I’m extremely happy with the help I received and would gladly use them again.
Chris and team were awesome! They unloaded a full truck, fast and efficiently without damaging any of my items, would recommend to my friends and anyone else!

All Marengo 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.
