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. 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 less expensive.

The Cost of Moving in Salem, SC
In Salem labor-only moving help typically costs between $343.28 and $716.91.
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 $92.50 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.

These two young men were excellent workers! On time, very personable, and worked every minute. They did a great job packing my belongings under the time limit, and I feel very confident that my things will arrive safely to my new home. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.
They were early and were waiting for me when I got there to start loading. They were quick and got the truck loaded. They also followed me to my second location and got the rest of our stuff loaded. Overall a good job but I should have given them better instruction on loading the truck so space was not wasted.
They asked if they could come early which was great, they were fast, effecient and when we got to our destination 500 miles away and unloaded - nothing was broken. really couldn't have been any better!
Very professional, hard working! I was worried everything I have wouldn’t be able to fit in the containers, these guys fit everything to a t… a miracle! I will use them again and recommend to others. Thank you so much, what a relief!
The two gentlemen arrived a few minutes early ready to go. They very carefully packed my truck leaving no gaps. An excellent job and I am very happy. Thank you!
The move was great. The helpers worked efficiently and were able to upload the 25’ truck in 2 hr’s. Thank you. I will recommend their service to other and will use them in the future.
Lamar and Junior worked hard from the time they arrived u til completion. Packed the truck with room to spare in 100 degree heat. They were very polite and respectful of our belongings.
The movers were very courteous and careful with our things. They did a great job unpacking a 16-ft POD for us, and they put all of our furniture and boxes in the proper rooms of our new home.
Chris & crew were great. Worked hard & took direction & got everything into the house quickly. They took a well deserved 15 minute break when the rain began to pour down but continued throughout the intermittent light rain. I highly recommend them.
I had 2 intelligent, respectful young men that loaded my furniture back in my house. I enjoyed them. One said I was like his mother because I had my son's trophies in a box in the POD.
They were nice professional, and very gently, gentle with my furniture that my father had built. I will definitely keep them in mind for future needs.
