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 Royalston, MA

In Royalston labor-only moving help typically costs between $423.79 and $687.19. 

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 $82.29 an hour.

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.

Wow, how amazing Brandon and Joe were. I ordered a PODS container to move my stuff from storage. I thought the container delivered was too small and would have to leave stuff behind. I was wrong. I never want to play Tetris with either of them. Bravo! Thank you so very much for everything. You were so amazing and fast.

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!
