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.

Showed up on time, well equipped. Worked well but were pretty slow, took them as long to unload as it did for the other company to load. This caused an additional hour of charges to the job.
The crew that came to unload our belongings were great they took care of our things and were very efficient. I was not feeling so well so their help was amazing. They were able to unload pretty quickly and bring all our stuff including a sectional couch through 3 flights of stairs. Thank you again!!!! Will definitely use Rigo’s for our future moves.
I had three guys come and help me move in. They were on time, polite and very hard workers. I would recommend them to anyone who is moving. Thanks so much!
Citywide Moving is HIGHLY recommended by us! They did a great and quick job unloading for us. Both were the most professional we have encountered during our whole move! We are already recommending them to family that will be moving this summer.
These guys did an AMAZING job! We had a 16’ PODS container, they were careful and efficient! Would highly recommend this company. Thank you Citywide!!
These guys know their stuff, are friendly, and are also easy to interact with as they’re getting your things loaded up as needed. Would 100% recommend to anyone needing someone for a local or long distance move packing.
Two workers arrived on time and ready to go. Very fast and efficient at loading. Moved several heavy items (china hutch, buffet, piano, dining room table) with ease and confidence. Would recommend them to everyone!
The guys were on time and they were somehow able to pack everything into the container. They were polite, efficient, and finished a little early. Would highly recommend.
The movers were very professional and were able to move everything from my apartment into the pod (even with the time being shortened). They even took steps to keep my items dry during the bit of rain in the middle of the move.
This team from Superior Services was really the best I have ever worked with! They started off strong and finished strong. They had a great attitude the entire job. They took on everything we needed done and did excellent. It was worth every penny!
So Cal Movers did a great job with my recent unloading job. They showed up right on time, were courteous and helpful, and worked extra hard to assemble a piece of furniture that wasn't cooperating. They even ended the job ahead of schedule. Would definitely recommend.
100%. Marcus and Nic were willing, courteous and on time. No nonsense, careful with the items I wanted moved. In short, i would hire this company again!

HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it.

All Oak View 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.
