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 Oak Park, IL

In Oak Park labor-only moving help typically costs between $246.78 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 $74.00 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.

These guys were awesome. They showed up down a man due to a family emergency, but worked super hard making sure everything I needed got moved into the pod, as well as bulky furniture I needed to get out of the apartment and into the back alley. I would hire them again.

Third move using Logan Lift Express and I couldn’t recommend them enough for how much work and effort they put in to my new home move from my temporary apartment. Very quick and helped me with additional items that needed help and unloaded very quickly into my rented truck. Chris the supervisor has done every move and made sure to bring his best guys for the job
