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, itās considerably more affordable.

Christian and brother did a perfect job. Kept us updated on their arrival time. came on time. worked hard and fast. Finished the unloading, unboxed our furniture and even folded the rugs and gathered packing material earlier than estimated. Couldn’t have done anything better.
The two men you sent to unload my 16" PODS were excellent!! They were both very friendly and unloaded my PODS very quickly!! Thank them both for me!
Our helpers (Gregory, Curtis, Eric) were polite, quick to adapt to instruction and worked very efficiently within the allotted time. Leading up to arrival and during the job, they maintained good communication. Their efforts set us up for success within the office. We hope they will be assigned to our next arranged job in a few more weeks.
very careful with my items, very nice,, professional, courteous, helpful, and went beyond the call of duty to load unload and look for objects that I needed to put in my moving van. I would highly recommend them to anyone!! If you want further information please let me know!!
Anthony and his helper were outstanding! They kept us informed of their arrival time, worked non-stop and asked where each piece/box was to be placed. Very professional, courteous and conscientious.
Excellent, efficient and professional service. They unwrapped my items and cleaned up after themselves. Vladimir communicated the day before and the day of moving to confirm his arrival. Thank you for your excellent service.
Rob and Rich were great. Tall, strong and very charming, they did a terrific job and very quickly moved all of our possession into the pod in our driveway. I can see why they’re named Speed Movers. We’ll definitely be booking them to move us back into our house.
Christian and Juan were great! They were communicative, respectful and got the job done quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend them. Thank you!!
Fernando and Memo knocked it out of the park. They communicated in advance and were right on-time. They hustled and were both fun and respectful at all times throughout the move. I would use them again 1000%. Sincerely appreciate everything they did for us!
Great job. A little late but that's only because of them grabbing the truck for the move so I am not going to blame them for that. For just two guys they were able to work hard and get it done within the hours given.
These guys were very good. Heavy items down a flight of stairs and loaded the 16' pod without supervision. Real movers, not a couple of day laborers.

All San Clemente movers listed on HireAHelper are required to provide standard repair coverage, which reimburses $0.60 per pound for damaged items. Some states may have different rules, and full-value protection is only required by the federal government for moves that cross state lines.
One of the advantages of booking with HireAHelper is that every move includes our $1,000 Service Guarantee. Plus, you can upgrade your protection by adding SmartProtectionā¢āan optional coverage for labor-only moves that offers up to $10,000 in damage coverage, with multiple tiers to choose from.
Yes, professional movers will typically disassemble and reassemble furniture as part of the moving process. However, there are certain items that movers may not be able to disassemble. Learn more about how furniture disassembly and reassembly works when you hire movers.
One set of stairs is always included in your moverās rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to get a quote and indicate the number of sets of stairs that you haveāmake sure to include stairs leading to a basement if you will have any items that need to be moved into or out of it. Read more about when movers charge extra for stairs.
You should start packing at least three to four weeks before your move, but the sooner the better. If you need to downsize or organize, we recommend starting that process 6-8 weeks before your move when at all possible.
Need to move in a hurry or don’t have time to pack? HireAHelper makes it easy to add professional packing as an add-on to your move. When available, you can get packing help for just several rooms or your whole home.
