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.

These guys were excellent! They were organized, efficient, and they allowed us to benefit from their expertise. They were also friendly and personable. They unpacked most of our 26' and 16' trucks in three hours then asked if we needed anything else before they left. We would definitely recommend them.
The two helpers from Belle Boys arived on time.They immediately went to work.It was uncommonly hot and humid for Maine and they worked costantly for there entire shift. They did an excellent job packing everything we had and in the time they were supposed to.Great job great workers! O.K.
The Bell boys movers were wonderful! Mine had been a very stressful move. Their knowledge and care made all the difference. I will use them again (when I move in July) and would recommend them 100%!
Bell Boys was absolutely amazing!! They had the job done in a fraction of the time allotted, and were so careful and thoughtful in how they unloaded my belongings. I would absolutely use them again!
They did an absolutely amazing job! The movers were friendly, polite, respectful and professional. They really worked hard and took extra care of my belongings. Will be using them again and highly recommend them.
Mo and Dave moved me in. I looked for them to move me out. They are so fabulous. They loaded my trailer securely / tightly. They were on time and kept in touch. They were quick, careful and thorough. I recommend them for your move.
2 men came and unloaded 15 ft of an ABF trailer into storage. Excellent job communicated what time tbey would be there and got the job done. Would rehire in a minute. On a 9second note it was in the ninties on the unload day it was in the 90s as well.
The gentlemen that did the work for us were *fantastic.* They worked hard the whole time and earned every penny I paid them. Money well spent and I would hire them again in a NY minute!
Very professional. They arrived on time, were extremely strong and professional, and moved a variety of items between my house and barn. They helped me solve some problems about how best to locate things and did a superb custom job for me. Couldn't have been better.
These guys are some hard-working gentlemen! Punctual, respectful, and very understanding when my answer to ‘where does this go’ was “Ummm...” almost half the time. Already recommended them to my neighbors and will continue to use them anytime I can. Use them and be satisfied with your choice.
They were both efficient careful and friendly. We had lots of things to move into and out of storage and we had to sort out boxes. They were very helpful and patient while we did that.
Right on time - helped us with a move down some winding narrow stairs - excellent service. Prepared, polite, asked the right questions - handled our goods carefully in a fairly difficult environment. Absolutely would use them again - they are worth every penny.

All Newport 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.
