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.

Unfortunately, Gary promised me some packing materials but didn't get that message to his loaders who showed up with none of what he offered, including extra blankets, tie downs, and boxes for my computers and art work. The loaders, who were polite and careful moving my furniture, did their best to accommodate my needs including making boxes from scrap in my garage and using shrink wrap I just happened to have. I'll see what condition my possessions are in when they arrive.
They did a terrific job, worked hard and efficiently and took care with all our belongings.
I was impressed how well they packed everything and confident everything will be safe.
I would gladly use them again and recommend them to anyone else moving.
Polite and helpful work team. They should be better trained regarding standard cautions for moving furniture however. One wall had a slight ding because if it. Overall good job!
The movers would have been on time except their GPS sent them ~6 miles away. When they arrived they began immediately and were able to finish in approximately 40 minutes. They even offered to spread out the rugs, but the floors had not been vacuumed. They doubled checked that things were placed correctly.
My POD unit was only 8’ x 8’. They were finished within an hour. My main complaint is the two hour $400 minimum charge.
The movers were good, the charge too high.
We had an excellent experience with the helpers! On time, polite and professional.
I had ordered 4 people and only 2 showed up which was fine, I called and the proper adjustments were made to my final bill.
100% satisfied and would use the company again.
Thank you
Were1.5 hours late.
Claimed boss didn't tell them they had a job.
Because of lateness they were fighting for space in house with another appliance delivery scheduled.
Workers were fine once they arrived.
The two gentlemen who came to help us unload our POD were on time, worked steadily and very hard. In addition they were very helpful to us who are both over 55 years of age and placed items in the rooms they are going to go. They were respectful of us and of our belongings. I would definitely hire them again if I needed help.
These guys were GREAT! On time. Intelligent. Well-mannered. Professional. Careful with our things. FAST as lightening. We finished in under 2-hrs. I would not have believed that. I'll use them again for sure!
Eric and George were terrific. Excellent workers, friendly and efficient. I’ll deal with these folks any time in the future and also highly recommend them.
Both boys were excellent, friendly and provided impressive, quick and efficient service. They were hard workers in NM which is hard to find. I would HIGHLY recommend them to others and would definitely work with them again.
Mike was very professional. We had 2 PODS and a U-Haul that required loading. The team was on time. They dismantled the furniture that required it and loaded every thing up quickly and securely. I would use them again, should the opportunity arise, and would recommend them to others as well.
You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Placitas.
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 Placitas 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.
For helpful tips, step-by-step guides, and checklists, go to our packing hub.
