The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

Full-service is definitely more convenientābut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Sanford, MI | $476.65 | $1,203.11 |
| Michigan | $476.65 | $1,203.11 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $476.65 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Sanford, MI, with an average hourly rate of $81.92. Your final price will depend on how long your move takes.
To get a better sense of what your move might cost, you can see the average cost for different-sized moves in the table below. Learn more about HireAHelper's methodology for calculating average costs based on proprietary data from over 1 million moves.
| Home Size | Average Cost | Average # of Movers | Average # of Hours |
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | $347.81 | 2 movers | 2.2 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $400.35 | 2 movers | 2.4 hours |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | $467.24 | 2 movers | 2.8 hours |
| 2 Bedroom House | $463.32 | 2 movers | 2.6 hours |

| 4 Bedroom House | $647.51 | 3 movers | 3.1 hours |
| 5 Bedroom House | $765.30 | 3 movers | 3.9 hours |
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.

Great set of guys, had everything loaded onto the truck within an hours time. Only thing they didn't have in their toolbox was a needed hammer. Very respectful and cordial. Thanks
This group is amazing! I will refer and use them for any moving! Very friendly, helpful and great at what they do. They took care of my items as if they were their own! On time and open line of communication prior to the move date. Very respectful and top notch service!
Fantastic workers! I’ve hired many people over the years and these two guys would measure up to anyone. Hard working- I mean REALLY hard working. Respectful of our belongings, courteous and professional. Don’t hesitate to hire them. Seriously- worth every penny.,
I genuinely don’t think we could have done the move without these guys! They were efficient, careful with our furniture, and overall very nice guys. They arrived punctually and were aware of the time constraints specific to our situation. 10/10 will definitely be hiring them again for our next move!
Thank you very much for the excellent job. They both performed a wonderful move for us and I would use your company again and have referred your company to my friends. Thanks again for your professionalism. Al and Judy Duncan
I NEEDED SEVERAL HEAVY OBJECTS MOVED FROM MY BASEMENT TO A DUMPSTER IN MY DRIVEWAY. HELPERS SHOWED UP ON TIME READY TO WORK, IT WAS NECESSARY TO DO THIS IN THE POURING RAIN. THE JOB WAS DONE TO MY SATISFACTION IN NO TIME. THE WEBSITE WAS EASY TO USE AND THE STAFF PROFESSIONAL. I WOULD RECOMMEND AND USE THEM AGAIN WITHOUT HESITATION.
The team showed up ready to work, they needed very little direction from me. They worked hard and got the job done sooner than I thought possible. I will be using them again, and I would recommend the crew to anyone needing some help moving!
As I was not personally at the location. I can say hiring them from across the country was very easy. They contacted the person moving in a timely manner. I would recommend them and would hire them again if I need a mover.
They Did A Great Job, Showed Up When They Where Supposed To And Did The Job Like I Asked Putting The Items Where I Wanted Them To Go. I Would Use Them Again!
Josh and His Crew Are Amazing! This Is My Second Time Using Them and They Did A Fantastic Job, All Around Professional, Polite and Courteous and Put Everything Right Where I Wanted It. Love These Guys.
I did not expect to have such great service! These guys were professional and very polite. Got the job done in one hour! There was a lot of heavy things to move and a bed that needed disassembled and reassembled. I don't know what I'd do without these guys! Thanks again!!!
The guys were a little late but not their fault. Road construction but they did keep in contact on their progress. They came prepared, worked hard and very respectful of my items. Also very professional when i asked for certain things to be placed for easy access in the storage unit. Please let their boss know it was a pleasure working with them.

All Sanford 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.
