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. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.

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.

They did a great job helping us loading our stuff into the Pods container, very well organized and secured in place. They helped us getting the 75" TV off the wall. We were expecting it to take 2 hours or more with 2 guys, but they were 4, and they knocked it our in just 1 hour! Excellent professionals and very kind. Definitely recommended!

We've had some bad moving experiences in the past, so I was Leary. They surpassed my hopes! Tony led my crew and all 3 of them worked constantly. We have heavy, high-end furniture and they prepped it well and loaded carefully. We were over on time, but at no point did I consider that it was because they were slow. They were organized, prepared and polite. I would absolutely recommend!

The guys did an excellent job packing the 26' truck we rented. They fit more than we ever thought possible. The guys were running up and down the stairs getting boxes and had the entire truck packed in less than the time allotted. Thank you!

These gentlemen did an excellent job! We had started filling the pod assuming we were doing a great job and they said no and repacked for us and got even more stuff in our 1st pod!! Filled our 2nd pod very carefully and again i was surprised at how much they got in there!! We will have them back again for another pod!

After rescheduling the unloading of my 26 foot truck several times, due to weather, Tony and Zack jumped on the first break in the rain to get the truck unloaded quickly, professionally, and they were very courteous as well! I would definitely use their services in the future.

I would highly recommend E&J Cleanouts and Moving. Andy and Cameron were terrific. Very fast, but careful, with no breaking damage. Very courteous and positive attitude. They finished before the allotted time and I couldn't be happier. I'll certainly use them for the next move and would recommend them to anyone. Ask for Andy and Cameron and you won't be sorry!

Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Potosi

You've got moving questions, we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Potosi.

 

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 Potosi 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.
