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.

Big boy gentle movers are the best! Loaded up our 3 bedroom house, drove 10 hours to our new house, unloaded and set up with out a scratch. Very professional, friendly and went above and beyond. I highly recommend them. Thank you Kenny and CJ We couldn’t be happier. Tom and Maria
This team was fantastic. On time, worked fast and hard. Extremely polite and considerate. They even put my table and chairs together for me and did it very quickly. It would've taken me forever. I would totally recommend this company without any hesitation and while I hope to never move again if I do I will definitely use this company. Thank you.
This had to be the best moving experience ever ! these guys showed up on time , got bright to work and the price was more than reasonable ! I wish them the best and highly recommend them !
These guys showed up on time and ready to work. Very personable to boot. They worked quickly and efficiently but handled our “stuff” with care. I would not hesitate to use them again.
Awesome team, Whitney and Ron were fast and efficient. Crazy how well they worked together as a team, unloading went smooth and organized. Job well done.
I had family members meet them at my new home in Foley, AL because we were still traveling from Maine. I was told they have done an awesome job and were very polite to my family. I so appreciate their hard work. It was so nice to know my stuff was being taken care of when I wasn’t there. I would hire them again in a heartbeat, but I don’t plan on moving again for a while! ??
Moses and David did an excellent job with my move. They were here early and worked fast and efficient. I would definitely used them again and recommend them to friends and family.
These guys were AWESOME! They fit me in after they had already worked a full day so I didn't have to pay an extra month rental on the U-Boxes. They were very friendly, courteous and efficient. They even put my bed together and lifted my heavy TV up on the stand. I hope I never move again but if I do, I know who to call!
The guys were Awesome. Will definitely recommend them to anyone who asks about movers. I will be calling them when I need to move from storage to a new house.
The crew who came worked efficiently and got the job done an hour earlier than expected. Plus, they all had a great attitude. Their smiles and humor made the stress of seeing your life loaded into a truck much easier.
Fantastic service from start to finish. The young men started on arrival and worked very fast to get it done in 2 hours. Stacked it in the storage unit very efficiently. I am very pleased and gave them each a tip. Thanks for all the great customer service and a remarkable experience.
They were a few minutes late, but they notified me that they were on their way, very good and hard workers, and worked fast to get my U-Haul truck and packed into a storage facility, carefully and professionally.
