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 Ocean, NJ

In Ocean labor-only moving help typically costs between $319.53 and $687.19. 

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 $84.77 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.

Great crew. Hard working, very polite and patient. Came on time and then worked non-stop to finish off. Really took the time to pack the container to make sure I am able to fit as much as I can and not damage anything along the way.

The movers were great, on time and professional! My issue is with Moving Staffers!!! They estimate the fee for the moving time of job, ex: 2 guys 2 hours, if it goes over the time it's $129 per hour, BUT if it's less, like over an hour less you don't get credit, bulls*#t!!! 1 (one) Star rating

I can not say enough good things about my experience with Sharp Van Lines. They sent 3 guys who went right to work and never stopped. Wrapping furniture, taping boxes and loading the truck with such efficiency, I couldn’t believe they could fit all of my furniture. Don’t hesitate to hire them for your move.

Real Advice from Ocean Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Ocean. (They’re really nice!)

"I would recommend U-Haul for a reliable truck rental. They have plenty of trucks in the area and guarantee your truck on your moving date. I personally have experienced scheduled trucks not available on moving day when using Budget and Penske rentals."
