Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move

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 movers to load or unload your stuff.

While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably more affordable.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Rockton, IL

In Rockton labor-only moving help typically costs between $326.70 and $693.69. 

If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $77.07 an hour.

HireAHelper’s Best Price Guarantee


Find a lower price for the same move? We’ll match it—because making your move easier and more affordable in Rockton is what we’re here for.

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.

This is a great service. My helpers coordinated arrival time to match the arrival of the truck. They worked fast, hard, and efficiently. They were careful and respectful of the property. They made sure not to bring in any dirt while coming in and out. And they removed some old furniture for us. It could not have worked out better. I highly recommend them.

Tony and Greg did a great job! They got there right on time and didn't stop the whole time. We can't believe how well they filled the truck and how efficient they were so we only had to make 1 trip. The brought everything we had asked for. Very personable and funny. We did end up helping but that was only so it could be done quicker because we totally misjudged how much stuff we had.
