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.

They showed up on time and got right to work. Very professional and hard workers. Really knew what they were doing. Had the truck packed and ready to go in the time allotted. Would recommend highly to anyone needing this type of service.
They were on time and very patient. They took their time to load everything and made sure everything was placed right. They took a bit longer than I expected but even with some delays, I am satisfied with their assistance.
The two gentlemen who helped me move were fantastic. Personable and care about our personal property. They went beyond their job description to make us feel comfortable and that they knew what they were doing. If. I move again in the area, I would no doubt want Jamal and Terence.
These guys were great. They managed to fit the entire contents of my two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment into one average-sized moving truck, and nothing was damaged. They were efficient, professional, and friendly. I would definitely use their services again!
We hired 2 guys to help us unload a full 24 foot enclosed trailer with a full one bedroom apartments worth of stuff. They showed up on time, they brought an extra guy as thy had another bigger job after ours and the unloaded the trailer into the apartment in about 1.5 hours. They were friendly and worked hard. I would use them again.
I had asked for 4 helpers only 3 showed up. They were an hour and fifteen minutes late. Once here they got right to work, and the move went off well. The workers were polite and hard working.
They were on time, prepared for the job and made almost all my stuff fit in the truck. I mean, they were very creative in organizing my stuff in the truck. No damages were noticed while unloading the truck. Keep up the good job.
Terrance and Gus did a great job loading the moving truck for us. Nearly every square inch of the 26 foot box truck was packed, I don’t think they could have added any more of the items that were left over in the house. They showed up on time and worked until the truck was full.
I cannot recommend Kellers enough! They arrived on time and took care of moving everything. They had my entire 3 bedroom house with a basement and attic completely packed in exactly 3 hours. They were efficient and packed the truck extremely well. Very nice team and made my life so much easier. If I need movers again, these are the guys I'll call. Awesome job!
The helpers were excellent in being able to pack a truck and they did everything that was asked of them. They were personable and stayed longer as needed. I would recommend them to anyone and also use them again at any time.
Professional. Efficient. Careful. Kind. Would use Al and his crew again and would recommend them to anyone. We packed upack trailer on the front end of the move, but we ran out of steam to unload on the back end. They scheduled within a few days notice and unloaded our 28’ trailer in half a day with a crew of three. Save your back and go with the pros.
Dee was very good. She was very respectful and had command of her crew. They all worked very hard. They were not on time but I believe it was because the last job they were coming from was delayed from heavy rains. I would use them again.

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 Milroy 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.
