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 cannot say enough great things about I&O’s moving crew: Matthew, William, and Elijah. They were absolutely incredible from start to finish. They showed up on time, worked unbelievably hard, and treated every single one of our belongings with care and respect. They were professional, efficient, friendly, and somehow managed to make a stressful moving day feel easy.
Their teamwork was outstanding, and they never complained, even with the challenges that came up (like running out of supplies, the hot the summer or when I needed them to unload something that was already loaded.) They went above and beyond in every way possible and exceeded every expectation we had.
If you’re lucky enough to have Matthew, William, and Elijah as your moving crew, you’re in the BEST hands. They deserve every single dollar they earn and then some. I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Thank you all for your incredible work. You three made a huge difference for our family!
Quinnel and Sharrod did an incredible job. They kept moving and hauled heavy furniture without nicking a thing. Quinnel made excellent suggestions on how to best pack everything in the 26-foot U-Haul. It was clear he knew what he was doing, so I turned all of the loading and packing decisions over to him and he fit everything together so tightly that it will not shift during the long drive from Delaware to Florida. They are both highly recommended!
Marie's Miracle Movers did it again! Gill and Dennis were wonderful. They moved everything carefully and quickly. I would definitely recommend Marie's Miracle Movers!
Kingston, Milton and Gill were amazing. Professional, skillful and kind. They did a great job. I’d highly recommend them and hope to get them for our second POD. Thank you!!!
The movers arrived early, were very polite/respectful, and finished quickly. They took care to follow my wishes and were careful with my belongings. I would call on them to move again!
These guys are real professionals. Fast, skilled, and friendly. They expertly handled heavy items, tight fits, and multiple sets of stairs and took care to not damage any of our items or our floors/walls. Their team of three unloaded our 28 ft moving truck in under 3 hours. We’ll definitely call them next time we need moving labor help.
Pair arrived after the initial window of time but worked super hard when they arrived. They were both willing to move whatever was asked and were friendly throughout the whole process.
Anthony and team communicated well the day of the move about their arrival. They were professional and courteous the entire time. They listened to our specific needs and took extra care with delicate items. Highly recommend. Thank you for your help Anthony!
Excellent packers. Hard working, professional, and skilled. Packed the moving pod extremely efficiently in a manner that minimized the possibility of shifting and damage. We were worried about fitting everything into the pod, but because of the skill of the movers, we actually only used about 3/4 of it. Would recommend them for the perfect combination of hard work and experience. They also were a pleasure to interact with as they were friendly, attentive, and respectful.
Karim and his fellow mover did a great job assisting with the loading of the U Haul in the pouring rain. They were very polite and efficient with strapping the items down and came in under the allotted time. There was no damage to the interior walls. We will definitely use them again for the next phase of our moving. Thank you for your hard work!
If you’re interested in using street parking, please note you may need a permit for parking PODS or moving trucks on particular streets or in driveways. Penske and U-Haul truck rentals are the two suppliers in our area with the biggest supply of trucks readily available.
Whether you're moving to or from the east coast, most places are good for driving moving trucks and PODS. There are some small streets, but you'll be fine for the most part.
The best place to get a U-Haul storage unit or to rent a truck in the Albany, NY is 2045 Central Ave. 12205. The people there are helpful, personable, and will go out of there way to make sure you have everything you need.

The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
All Middletown 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 SmartProtection™—an 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 mover’s 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 have—make 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.
