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.

The helpers were on time. They were great at communication and called ahead of time. They were fast and very professional. They also did great work managing space when storing the furniture and boxes.
The team was absolutely fantastic! This was the first time I’d used Hire A Helper. From the booking experience to the absolutely amazing crew that did the loading - thank you! We traveled from SC to OH and not one thing was damaged.
Went above and beyond!!! These guys were fantastic - treated my stuff like it was their own. Loaded in less then an hour including loading some boxes in my truck which wasn't on the agenda. Highly recommend them to anyone. Even tied up the load in the POD to keep it stable. Fantastic - Fantastic!!! On time and hard working - what else could you ask for.
These are the guys you want! Friendly and efficient. They were on time, they worked fast without pause, and everything was handled carefully. They knew exactly how to pack the truck and even repacked what we had loaded. Extra Hands Moving Company was the right choice and I will recommend them to everyone!
We had such a wonderful experience with Melvin and Jim today. I would recommend this service as well as our helpers today. They were courteous, timely and very hard working!! We will use your service again in the very near future for an additional move! Please thank Melvin and Jim for us. They are awesome!!??
The guys arrived right on time, provided professional service and the walls are all intact! Sending kudos to Tom (dispatcher / boss) for the initial contact and follow up. Highly recommended and would use again. ~ John D.
Absolutely the greatest people you want to help move did the job so quickly and amazingly I am very happy to have met them and that they were able to help me
Anthony and his team were great. Showed up on time, worked through the entire 4 hours to unload 2 26-foot uhaul trucks. Even had time to assemble furniture. We would use them anytime, even if our kids came to help. Thx Anthony. You guys were the best.
We had to change our day and time and the organization was very flexible. The 2 young men that came worked hard the whole time. They were polite and very respectful of our home and the items they moved in. Nothing was scratched or damaged in any way. They had time enough to put together our table and upright it, which was very heavy. I would use them again for this type of job!
They were actually early and worked really hard and fast. Very well prepared too. The even put protective sheets on my doors and floors. I highly recommend them!!!
World-class service! They were early, respectful, fast, and did an outstanding job! I couldn’t be happier, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone! Thank you!
Kevin's team did a wonderful job of packing my 'POD'. They showed up on time and finished the job quickly. I'd highly recommend them to anyone that needs their service

All Scranton 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.
