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, itâs considerably more affordable.

Bryce and team were unbelievable. So professional and FAST. I felt terrible standing there watching them work but they were SO fast and organized. I can't reccommend then highly enough! Don't hesitate to book Bryce and team at Valley Movers. I'm super picky and they were a 10+++
They were 5 mins CT early and ready to go to work on time. I can only hope the guys on the unloading side of this move is half as good these guys were. Quick, handled everything with care and loaded the pod using all available space. I have no reservations about recommending them and will be using them for the 2nd pod.
This is my second time using this service and I couldn’t be happier with the results. It was such a hot day, but the two young men worked quickly and efficiently. I will definitely be hiring them again.
Thank you so much for getting me help for moving a few things. Did wonderful job. John in particular was extremely helpful, very willing to move things where I wanted them and careful with my furniture.
John and Manuel were great. We had scheduled for three hours, and it only took an hour and a half. I wanted to ask you if I get the extra hour back? Thanks, Bob.
Ryan and his assistant were excellent. Prompt, curteous and driven. They worked hard and my belongs were handled with care. Too bad they won't be on the other end to complete my journey. Many thanks to Valley Movers!
Bryce at Valley Movers was very responsible and personable. He reassured me that everything would be completed in a timely manner, which it was with careful concern for my property. I would absolutely request them again.
Best thing ever!!! Worth every penny I spent to save me the headache of moving. I pray I never have to move again but if I did I for sure will be calling hireahelper. ????????????
Bryce and Mike did a phenomenal job unloading my POD. They were punctual, fast, well-organized, professional, and made sure to take extra care not to damage my apartment or the furniture they were moving. They far exceeded my expectations and I would hire them again in a heart beat.
Absolutely a great experience. They were on time and worked the whole time they were there. I was so happy with the care they took with my vintage furniture! I would definitely recommend them to anyone!
Valley Movers did a great job!!! Arrived promptly and got the job done in the two hour time frame! We will call them again when we get to the new location! Thank you
These guys were great! Amazing how much they fit in the moving truck. They used every bit of room in the truck. They were careful with everything, and they put the furniture wherever u wanted it. I would use them again and will recommend to friends. Amazing!

All San Joaquin 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 SmartProtectionâ˘âan 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 moverâs 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 haveâmake 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.
