|---|---|---|
| Oil City, LA | $443.94 | $1,160.56 |

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, it's considerably more affordable.

| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |

| Unloading Help | â | â |

I would recommend hiring the 2 helpers we had any day. They were happy and glad to be doing what I had been dreading. They were careful with all my furniture. Making sure to load everything in the proper way to avoid damage. It made my move 100X easier. Thank you.
Second time using this company and once again they were exceptional. Hard working, polite, and quick. All our stuff arrived in tact with very minor wear and tear.
My 3 movers, RaShawn, Randy and Aaron, arrived on time and did a great job offloading my entire household. They were respectful of my belongings and worked efficiently to stay within the agreed upon time frame. They put boxes where I wanted and even reassembled my bed frame and recliner. I would definitely recommend Get It Done movers in the future!
They called me prior to showing up. They were on time, developed their game plan for loading my PODS. Worked consistently and got the job done on time. I noticed how they spoke to one another to keep from damaging my furniture while transporting. They were kind and respectful. I will be using them again when I find out where we will move. Folks, you can't go wrong with Get It Done Moving.
Get It Done Moving was excellent, prompt and great workers. The project lasted an extra day and Get It Done Moving managed the second day without our involvement. Excellent communications!!!!! Thanks
These gentlemen showed up before they needed to and worked their butts off. If you ever need anybody you could depend on to get you done. This is the person you wanna say are the people they are awesome individuals they work hard and show up on time and I don’t know what else you can ask for Five stars plus
Robinsons and Moving and Hauling Services did exceptional work. They were on time, professional , courteous, respectful and polite during all of their working time. They went far and beyond to make the job complete. I will recommend this moving company to family and friends.
very hard working and respectful people . Very much worth the money. 5 stars all the way around. I needed someone to be dependable and they came thrue for my family.
The gentlemen that helped me were friendly and efficient. I sent them all the items that needed to be loaded into the pod and they perfectly Tetris’d everything inside with room for my office chair. Great service 10/10 recommend!
They moved a number of items down 3 flights of stairs in 80+ degree weather, and we're able to get the items into our home quickly after arriving. Will be recommending to others in the area that are planning on moving
Raushean was very professional. Introduced himself and the other person, enquires of what needed loading and off they started. No delays. They loaded my stuff very carefully and secured them. Am so happy with the job. I would use them again and will let my fellow travel nurses use them too.
Get It Done Moving was great! They confirmed my date ahead of time, and checked with me about what supplies I needed. They were there as promised and loaded my POD. Very pleasant gentlemen that were careful with my furniture. Lots of experience. Definitely use these guys!!

All Oil City 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.
