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.

The Cost of Moving in Oak Forest, IL
In Oak Forest labor-only moving help typically costs between $314.16 and $779.28.
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 $69.20 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.

Ricky and Jaden were awesome! They moved the stuff out of our 16ft truck in around an hour and a half, including 2 big sofas! They were great and would definitely recommend them
This was such an excellent experience. J and Richard were absolute all-stars. They were punctual and prepared. Worked extremely hard without taking breaks, insanely good at packing things in as efficient as possible while still keeping things safe from breaking. Would 100% recommend them!
Oscar and Kendrick did a fantastic job! They brought up all the items quickly and efficiently while also asking where to place things and even assembled some items for me. Great job.
I am totally satisfied with the 2 man team of movers that provided the service of moving all our personal belongings into a 2 bedroom apartment on the top floor under grueling heat conditions and very narrow stairs. I will highly recommend their service as a job well done. Thank you for all your help.
They were an excellent crew! Showed up 5 min early. They were fast, professional and friendly. They saved me the day before the trucks rolled in. I highly recommend.
They arrived on time. They were very courteous and respectful. They did an amazing job of loading my moving truck. They knew how to load it correctly. I was very impressed and very happy with their work. Thank you for making this move easier than I expected.
John 3:16 movers were fantastic! The three hardest workers around! Victor, Julius and Don did an amazing job unloading our POD and placing our furniture in the right rooms! All are very friendly and willing to do whatever we asked while moving everything in our new home! Thank you!! Joyce & Rich
They really worked hard, the load had shifted during transport. It was a mess. And it rained during the unloading. They smiled the whole time. They had our back. They were both so kind, patient, friendly and careful with our items. Despite the conditions they made the experience enjoyable. They are the best, I highly recommend them. Donna B
All 3 men were super efficient and worked very quickly. I got injured before we even started packing things and they assured me that I wouldn’t have to do anything and could just relax. I would definitely recommend these workers and would hire them again if needed!
Very friendly and knowledgeable on packing and securing items so nothing would break. Stated they were there to help us with all our moving needs and they did. Great Job!
On time, very professional and very quick. Unloaded my pod and kept all the furniture in the requested rooms with no scratches or dings or dents on the wall. Highly recommended.
Logan Lift was great! Very thankful for such a professional and helpful group of guys. I am recommending them to anyone who needs movers in the Chicagoland area. Thank you again it was a pleasure doing business with you all!
