The Cost of Hiring Movers in Providence, RI

On average, it costs $411.85 to hire moving helpers in Providence, RI. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Providence, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $76.14.

These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.

The Cost of Full-Service Moving

The average cost of a local full-service move in Providence, RI is $1,177.32, with an average hourly rate of $141.94. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.

Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

Terrell and his team were absolutely amazing. Extremely fast and efficient, and handled all of my belongings with care . They also showed up as a team of 3 though I paid for 2 helpers, and were able to move even quicker due to this. It was very clear that they are experienced movers. I would definitely hire First Class Movers again- they lived up to the name!
