|---|---|---|
| Montgomery, PA | $431.32 | $1,116.60 |

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, itâs considerably more affordable.

On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 322,750 verified customer reviews
They were late about 20 minutes but they more than made up the time with hard work, attention to detail, and professional demeanor. They were great to work with and definitely would use them again. In fact, they finished within the three hour time frame and there was no damage. I will certainly consider your company again with any future moves. Thank you!
Drove a great distance. Were on time. Worked diligently. Hardest job was carefully and successfully getting the piano up four step into the cabin. Did a great job in getting boxes to specified area. All men were friendly and polite a joy to be around
These guys were there at the right address and right on time, they completed all the work well before 2 hours, although I was sure I will need to retain them over time. They were courteous, hardworking and moved all items carefully. The dorm room was on the 3rd floor and I did not get charged extra for it. I will use them for all my next moves and fully recommend them.
The guys were hard working and friendly! They went above and beyond to help put down rugs exactly centered and arrange furniture where I wanted it. I have two flights of stairs and one is a tight turn with low ceiling and they negotiated it well. I appreciate the hard work!!!
These guys were great! As soon as my UPack came, they sprang into action. They were on time, took good care of my stuff and even helped me organize my moving truck. Highly recommended!
I ordered 3 movers and they showed up on time and stayed an extra hour to help finish unloading everything. They did a very good job and made sure that they handled things like they owned them. I would use them again.
This is my second time with the magnificent mighty movers and I love them. The team I worked with was jade, Jay, Quannny, and jahvon. They worked together effectively and effectively to get my 26 foot truck loaded up and unload in the time I asked them too. I always recommend them to people who are moving trust me they are truly magnificent! Thank you guys for your hard work
These guys were MAGNIFICENT!!!!!! Amazing help, worked with our changes in location for move in, and provided us with assistance beyond our expectations. I would recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable help with their move.
Quick, respectful, knew how to pack that pod like the back of their hands. Had one piece of furniture that was tricky but they handled it like a pro! Great communication, I would all around highly recommend and use again.
Danny and his assistant, ( sorry I forgot his name ), were FABULOUS!! They were simply 10 stars. I can if thank them or praise them enough. Sincerely, Michael Bettick
These guys worked their butts off! Terrence and Andrew were very respectful and careful with our furniture and house walls. Due to some confusion, they did not come prepared with a dolly or appliance cart making their job even more difficult. They persevered! I recommend these guys.
These guys were very professional, efficient, and friendly. They came prepared and acted like no job was too big or too small for them to take care of. I will definitely use them next time i need moving services.
Real Advice from Montgomery Movers
"We recommend connecting with the local township to determine parking expectations for locations that require moving truck to be parked curbside/on the street."
- College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving Bucks County
"If moving to or from a home in center city, apply for a Temporary No Parking (TNP) permit. This gives you 40 feet of parking (two car lengths) for $50 a day if parking is scarce. A TNP permit helps shorten the distance from the truck to the door. Visit the city website to obtain a TNP permit."

All Montgomery 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 SmartProtectionâ˘âan 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 moverâs 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 haveâmake 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.
