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. 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 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 more affordable.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Meriden, CT

In Meriden labor-only moving help typically costs between $312.28 and $687.19. 

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 $94.29 an hour.

HireAHelper’s Best Price Guarantee


Find a lower price for the same move? We’ll match it—because making your move easier and more affordable in Meriden is what we’re here for.

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.

Easily the best moving crew I’ve ever worked with / hired. On time, prepared, had their own tools, they had a plan and executed that plan. They took apart any furniture that needed taking apart to fit outside, they were fast and efficient, they informed me of everything as they worked, and were kind and courteous. I will be hiring them again for sure.

The crew was wonderful! They were on time and very respectful of our belongings. They worked quickly and efficiently. We underestimated the size truck that we would need, but the crew carefully packed the truck using every available space in an attempt to fit as much as possible. I would highly recommend them

These guys were great. The lead guy was a puzzle guru. I should have had him on my National Broadway Tour the first time we had to pack the trucks after the load out. He is a Tetris Master. Could not have been happier!
