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.

Movers called ahead of time to confirm arrival time. Arrived with the required equipment and worked the entire time (quick break for water). Specifically asked which furniture pieces we wanted wrapped. Was amazed how much they were able to load into the container. Would used the again.
Blaylock did a great job packing up my POD container, taking care to pack everything. They arrived on time, were friendly and professional and treated my belongings with care.
We spoke with Tim a couple of times before the move. They were flexible on the time and with working around our not-quite-set schedule. We hired Tim and Brandon to unload a PODS container into our house. They did a good job and were careful with our belongings and with the floors and walls of the house. Both were very pleasant and polite. I would hire them again to do this kind of job.
Wonderful, hard working crew! They were on time, worked tirelessly and were fast, but careful and respectful oft home and furnishings. Highly recommend them and will use them again in the future!
The guys were so amazing. They arrived on time and worked hard to get everything safely packed into the truck. We had trouble getting our U-haul truck on time for the move but the guys stayed in constant communication with us and worked with us to help get everything situated. I highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again.
The guys showed up early and did a great job of packing a POD. They were very professional and do not take any breaks and got the job done ahead of schedule.
Excellent work. Very fast&efficient. Arrived on time, got everything inside in the exact condition it came out of the truck. Will definitely hire again.
These guys were great. They worked hard and fast and packed my whole house into a 16 foot POD in under 2 hours. Worth every penny to save my back and get it done quick. Cheers!
They were on time and worked until they were done. They were careful and courteous. I would recommend them. But I don’t think I will use Hire the helper ever again. They charged way to much and the guy on the phone talked me into more movers and more hours which I didn’t need. He is the expert I had no idea how long it takes.
Nice young men who wired effectively to insure my things would make to my new house. They went above and beyond my expectations. Would recommend these guys to anyone needing a Hire a helper
Alex and his partner worked non-stop from the moment they arrived. They did a great job wrapping our furniture, and made sure to reinforce the more delicate pieces. They loaded our moving truck so efficiently, we had plenty of room to spare. Very pleased with their work.
My EZ Move Helpers were awesome! They came right on time, let me explain what I wanted, and then got right to work. They packed everything very carefully and made sure all my things were properly positioned so there would be no breakage. I really got the help I needed and wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future.
