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 Norfolk, VA

In Norfolk labor-only moving help typically costs between $318.13 and $821.32. 

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 $79.01 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.

We requested help to unload 2 16-foot PODS containers on 2 separate days. The same 2 workers arrived on time. They understood and were prepared for the job. They worked hard for 2 hours or less and followed instructions to place boxes and furniture as directed. I would definitely use them again.

Ryan and Schaefer were fantastic movers. Helped us with a smile even though we had a lot going on, and a lot of coming and going! A complicated day was made so much easier by their hard work, timeliness, and the careful way they moved all of our items. Highly recommend and would use them again!

We had a quick job for them to unload what was left of our furniture in a 16’ PODS. They worked quickly and carefully. We’d probably hire them again to unload our other PODS with our boxes.

I will definitely recommend this company and utilize for every move I will ever have. They were on time professional and were about their business. I hired them for a minimum of two hours but were actually done prior to the two hours. If you are on a budget, this is the way to go. Just rent a truck and hire this company.
