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 Salem, OH

In Salem labor-only moving help typically costs between $355.87 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 $72.91 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 Salem 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.

The two gentlemen we had move our things were excellent!! They were very careful in packing and moving our things. They put everything in the truck and maximized space. I recommend them very highly. I would like to thank them for handling our belongings with care.

We have used these movers were great. Fast, professional, and handled the job well. I would have liked a little better communication.... at least half of the boxes that were marked for specific rooms (fyi rooms were also marked with the same name and color labels). BUT overall a good experience and I would use them again. Matt was great about communicating:)

They reached out and contacted me right after I booked them. They called a few days ahead to re-confirm, and they showed up on time, did their job professionally and moved the items we needed them to. Highly recommend! So hard to find good, dependable people these days and Zooming Moving fits the bill!
