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 took my emergency request and I had help within a few hours of making the request.. The workers were both very friendly and helpful to the extent of me calling them back to help me unhook the large U-Haul trailer from my vehicle, They were truly "top notch" and I recommend them for any moving assistance job.
The men from Utopia Movers were fantastic! They arrived on time, were hard workers, and solved problems on how best to pack my pod. I highly recommend them and their skills and services.
This is the second time I have used Moonlight Movers. These guys are awesome. They have always arrived on time and are ready to work. They are very careful with the furniture. They are the most respectful and polite group of young men I have met. It was my pleasure to have Moonlight Movers help us move into our new home! I highly recommend them for your moving needs.
Duck movers did a fantastic job. Extremely trustworthy men who used their time efficiently and were able to pack and unpack all of my belongings without any issue (or scratches!). Highly recommended.
They did a good job loading the truck and making all of the stuff to fit in the truck. The only issue that we had was that while moving the washing machine from the basement, they dropped the machine at the top of the stairs and damaged a tile.
The team from Best Movers were courteous, prompt, efficient, careful and focused on the job. They called in advance of their arrival keeping us informed of their eta. Once they arrived, they got right down to business. The van was quickly loaded and unloaded at the new location. We would be happy to use Best Movers again.
This crew unloaded our truck at the destination. They showed up early, were courteous, and worked hard until the job was done. They were good at communicating their ETA and were really friendly guys. We had had a bad experience with another company's crew that loaded our truck and were a bit nervous, but these guys were great!!
Professional and courteous work crew. Went above and beyond expectations to help us finalize our move to VA. Will definitely be recommending this team of movers. -Show up early and stayed late -Work almost unstopped through the 90F heat -Did not damage any belongings or house fixtures -Careful and thought out placement of heavy items -Got the job DONE!
The helpers were delayed due to an accident (which we passed ourselves) on Interstate 64. They made sure we knew of the delay and once they did come, set to work. They were polite, friendly and got all our belongings in the house well.
The men were well prepared for the job and on time. They wanted to do a good job and did just that. I would absolutely seek their help again when needed. Thanks...Merv
We have used movers for the past 4 moves and Star Struck Movers have been the best movers by far! They are very professional, experts in moving and prove they care about your items like it were their own. We are so thankful for the team that moved our 4 bd house in 8 hours (load and unload!). We recommend Star Struck Movers for your next move.
They were both on time and prepared for the job! I even had an extra piece of furniture that I was planning to move on my own when they were done, but they helped me out & moved it into the truck, without me even asking. Super respectful of my property and made sure I had someone to help me unload everything at my destination. Would definitely recommend!
