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. 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 less expensive.

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 Multnomah, OR

In Multnomah labor-only moving help typically costs between $315.45 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 $85.07 an hour.

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.

I miscalculated on the size of POD I would have needed for this move. I didn’t think I had that much stuff! Jonathan and Dante did their very best to pack everything they could. We were able figure out what was a priority and what could be left behind together. They were efficient and speedy. I highly recommend them.

The two gentlemen were kind, polite, and very knowledgeable. They were here a few minutes before scheduled, introduced themselves and got to it. It was a great experience and I can't say enough how much I appreciate their help in making this portion of the move so easy.

I am extremely happy to leave a glowing review for Logan S and Zach from Oregon Trail Moving. They were right on time and did an incredible job loading our POD. I was very impressed with the care and skill they used in wrapping and loading our furniture. In addition, they were very pleasant young men. I would recommend them and Oregon Trail Moving for anyone who is in need of moving labor help.

"Consider minimizing the amount of loose items (e.g., fans, trash cans, lamps, etc.) If everything is boxed and ready to go, your move time will will be quicker, as opposed to having miscellaneous items that are difficult to pack in a moving truck. Consider transporting some of these items in your personal vehicle, if possible."
