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, itās considerably more affordable.

Thank you for your service, your on time arrival, and your hard work. Everything was satisfied if one of the helper could be more careful on moving fragile items. My Bose subwoofer was damaged.
We highly recommend Leave It Moving for your next move. They arrived promptly, worked hard, and were very cautious with our belongings. I was amazed at their ability to efficiently utilize every little space in the moving truck. Absolutely fantastic and well worth the money.
We had snow and ice to deal with and they did a fantastic job! The move was a no truck move across the street.... They walked it all and we're carefull with the snow tracks in both places. I couldn't have asked for anything more.... They are highly recommend!
MoversX did a phenomenal job with our move. They were punctual, worked hard in the extreme heat, and didn't stop until the job was done. These guys had a great attitude and very patient. We will definitely use them again and highly recommend.
The movers came on time even though a winterstorm struck the night before. We ended up only having a few peices of furniture to move, so they finished well under the 2 hour minimum. They could not fit the sectional down the stairs to get it to the basement, but it was not their fault. Overall. I would recommend them. and hire them again.
Five Star Moving did an excellent job and was extremely flexible with our moving schedule. They arrived ready to work and worked diligently throughout the entire job. I would definitely use them again, and in fact, I am doing so for another move coming up shortly. Thanks again!
We highly recommend them! They were prompt, very polite and did a great job! We give them 5 stars! We would definitely call them again for our next move!
Movers X was great. I can’t recommend enough. They dropped in and unloaded all my stuff in an instant and were very nice to talk to as well. I will recommend them to everyone.
These guys were perfect. Arrived right on time and got to work. They had no trouble getting all my items right where they needed to go. They also did it fast. They exceeded all my expectations and had a very competitive and appealing price. Would highly recommend them and will look for them again when I need moving.
The two movers were on time, efficient, and in good spirits the entire time. They are very good at playing tetris with boxes in moving trucks. Highly recommend!
The Crew was very prepared and worked very hard to accomplish the task. They were very cautious of our house as well as the contents they were packing. They were also very effective in packing the pod. They worked neatly and cleaned up when finished. We were very pleased with their efforts and results. This was the second time we used the same team. We would have them back again.
Very professional and patient. We had an incident come up during the move and had to leave the premise for a short time. They were very understanding,when it came to waiting while the temperatures outside were beastly. They resumed their work when we returned and were finished in no time. Very careful with the items they moved for us. Great Work.
