The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

Full-service is definitely more convenientābut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Nantucket, MA | $495.98 | $1,223.17 |
| Massachusetts | $495.98 | $1,223.17 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $495.98 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Nantucket, MA, with an average hourly rate of $81.20. Your final price will depend on how long your move takes.
To get a better sense of what your move might cost, you can see the average cost for different-sized moves in the table below. Learn more about HireAHelper's methodology for calculating average costs based on proprietary data from over 1 million moves.
| Home Size | Average Cost | Average # of Movers | Average # of Hours |
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | $386.12 | 2 movers | 2.2 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $444.45 | 2 movers | 2.4 hours |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | $518.70 | 2 movers | 2.7 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | $486.08 | 2 movers | 2.6 hours |

| 4 Bedroom House | $679.32 | 3 movers | 3 hours |
| 5 Bedroom House | $802.90 | 3 movers | 3.9 hours |
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.

| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |

204 Nantucket Mover Reviews
On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 331,992 verified customer reviews
Nunes and Sons did a wonderful job, and very mindful of floors and walls; however, they were shocked at all the damage done by the movers who packed our furniture. They had never seen such a horrifically bad job, so careless and disrespectful of our belongings. We will be filing a claim for that.
Both gentlemen were very nice. Hard working & took care of what they were handling & we're finished in the alotted time. I would like to use same people for unpacking when it's time thank you very much
These guys were great. Arrived on time and right to work. They were courteous and friendly and worked till it was done without a break. I’d recommend them to anyone.
The 2 guys from A-1 movers were great! They showed up on time and made very quick work emptying the Pod I had reserved. They worked non-stop for about 2 hours and put everything where I wanted them to quickly and efficiently. I couldn't believe how fast they were. They were friendly and nice to work with. I highly recommend them if you need no-nonsense, strong, and courteous movers!
Chevin and his crew did a great job for us. He let us know the night before he would be late but brought an extra crew member to make up for it which was very respectful of our time. They packed everything well using every bit of space and were careful w our belongings. Friendly and easy to work with.
These guys were absolutely Outstanding. A challenging move up stairs. Not one ding or break. Cannot say enough about how respectful and capable they were
Halkus arrived on time, with a phone call stating they were on their way. They were extremely professional, and efficient, and worked very hard to load my POD. They were very careful with all of my items, and packed the POD with precision. I highly recommend them to anyone needing this type of service. I will definitely use them on my next move. Pam A, Bourne, MA
Mike was very communicative and helpful. We didn’t actually end up needing the moving labor help due to Uhaul issues but they were really nice and helpful when they found out what happened.
These guys were very professional, finished super quick, and were cool with moving a couple pieces of heavy furniture to a more favorable location in my house
They two young men who assisted me in emptying a pod and assembling furniture were friendly, helpful, optimistic (when I stressed about furniture making it up a stairwell), and efficient. Amanda was so helpful and patient as I juggled delays. Grateful I found A-1 and would use them again anytime.
Josh and Freddy did a great job for us. They worked hard, very focused, yet careful and took good care of our things. Our move from start to finish was well done. I highly recommend! And would use them again
Rob and David were excellent! It was a challenging job especially in the rain, but they were patient and positive. Very efficient and knowledgable about packing the truck, loading and unloading. I would definitely recommend and use them again!

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 moverās rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more.
