Full-service is definitely more convenientâbut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.

|---|---|---|
| Newport, ME | $440.69 | $1,146.36 |
| Maine | $440.69 | $1,146.36 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size

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, it's considerably more affordable.

I would definitely hire them again in the future, I always respect ?? hard work and the people who do hard work . Thank - you very much fellas …!!! USAF ???? VET SSGT Jim E.
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.
Their arrival window was between 11:00 and 12:00. At 12:10 we called because they hadn’t arrived yet. They showed up at 12:30. The two workers did work hard once they arrived. It would have been nice if they had reached out to let us know they were going to be late.
The two crew arrived precisely on time. They had everything they needed to complete the move of the items efficiently. Their loading was efficient and they insured me all items would be secure. I had planned to finish loading myself the next day so they showed me the best way to load and secure the load during transit. I positively recommend this crew.
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!
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.
Bell Boys Moving were friendly, professional, efficient, and careful with our belongings. We were particularly impressed with their ability to get our boxspring down a difficult flight of stairs. Thank you, Bell Boys Moving! You are the best!
The guys did a great job. They were extremely professional and worked very efficiently. I cannot more highly recommend this company or this group. Great prices and way better than expected service for the price.
Great crew! Worked fast, efficient. Moved our heavy stuff off of the truck and up 3 flights of stairs in an hour. Would absolutely hire this team again!
Guido and his crew were attentive, hardworking, and extremely professional. They showed up on time and were very efficient with loading things safely while maximizing space in our truck. Everything arrived safe and sound! Would definitely recommend their services to anyone in Maine!!
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.
Phenomenal, professional job. Absolutely worth it and we will definitely be hiring them, again. In every aspect they demonstrated their experience and care for our items.

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.
