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.

Brandon and Shane were great! They arrived in the timeframe I was quoted (on time) and completed the job in the 2 hour timeframe. Very nice and hard working. I would definitely recommend them!
Andrew and Rick were kind and professional. They were prompt, courteous, and cared for our items. They did an excellent job moving everything and making sure it was how we wanted it. I would highly recommend them!
Two wonderful men arrived, and started to work. Knew exactly what to do. Ended up having to take the couch up stairs, wouldn't fit in elevator. They were very careful and neat! So friendly! I would give them more than 5 stars! Awesome men!!
The workers arrived on time and ready to work. After a quick survey of our homes contents they developed a plan of action and started to work. They worked extremely hard and continuously showed great care with our belongings. I would most definitely use their services again.
They did a phenomenal job. Were very nice and very professional. Helped us out a lot with our appliances that we could not fit through our door. I highly recommend them.
The movers were on time, and were wonderfully helpful and professional. They treated our things with respect and were great at unpacking and unloading as well. They did not mind assembling our furniture and relocating a few things in the rooms when we had to. They did not rush the work like other moves, we will definitely use them again when we move out!
The two men who came were wonderful. They were on time and went right to work and worked rapidly, carefully and diligently. Everything was moved to perfection. They even put a desk together for us. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing moving labor help.
They arrived ready to work and worked steadily the entire time. They were courteous and navigated around the three dogs with ease. I would recommend them wholeheartedly.
Two guys moved a lot of heavy stuff and never complained (or swore as I know I would have). Did an excellent job of making sure things were safe and secure. Very professional and worth every penny.
The team was efficient, respectful, and thorough. They came on time and worked hard the whole time to get our items loaded. We used a service where we pay for how much space we use in the truck and the saved us more space than was estimated. We highly recommend them!
John and Justin were great, super friendly, worked quickly and got the truck unloaded with time to spare -- so they helped us assemble a few things before our two hours were up! Happy to have their help, especially so early in the morning. Also appreciated their communication. Glad to have hired them and will do so again on our next move if they're available!
Could not have asked for a nicer, helpful couple of guys. First of all, they were on time, courteous, good humored and cheerful. They did the job efficiently and rapidly. I was pleasantly surprised. I would employ them again for a move and would gladly recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys....!!

Why Book Your Painted Post Move with HireAHelper?
Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Painted Post
You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Painted Post.
The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
All Painted Post 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 SmartProtection™—an 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 mover’s 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 have—make 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.
