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 Oakland, MD
In Oakland labor-only moving help typically costs between $322.23 and $376.90.
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 $76.98 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.
