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.

One of the easiest moves I've ever done. The movers were on time and had everything done in record time. Well before the estimate. I've moved many times and this was very easy comparatively. They were very helpful to move a few pieces of furniture to the garage to get them out of the way. Thank you!
Scott and Kyle from Joanna's Movers did a fantastic job. They were on time, courteous, and very professional. I would definitely use them again for future moves.
Great job done with a wonderful attitude. Would recommend these guys. They worked hard in extreme heat, they were very respectful and on time. I would use them again.
I’m very happy with this crew. They did an awesome job loading the truck efficiently and took extra care to make sure none of our stuff would be damaged. Highly recommended!
I wish I could give them more stars! Super professional, punctual, nice, quick and affordable!! You can’t go wrong booking with Moving Genius Pro Movers! We will use again!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!
This team showed up on time, went right to work, loaded an 8 x 8 x 16 pod and were gone in no time! I would definitely use this crew again! Very polite, respectful and hard working. Kenny and Jerico did an excellent job!
The service was excellent!! I used Handy Dandy movers and they sent Alex and CJ who were absolutely wonderful. They didn't milk the clock, I had 5 rooms full of heavy furniture and they moved it in 2 1/2 hours fast and secured it in the Pods. I was totally pleased they were on time, handled my furniture with care. I will use them again.
These 2 Guys were terrific! I couldn't have asked for more. They worked efficiently, quickly, friendly. I would defininitely request them by name again.
Great friendly guys. Arrived on time. They were respectful of all my things, and placed everything in the areas I requested,,,,worked at a steady pace & finished within allotted time. I would definitely hire them again.
These guys are MAGIC. I had already scheduled a uhaul to take stuff because I figured there was no way they could get all this stuff on a POD. Not only did they get everything on there, I have extra room! These guys should be the top of every list for moving!
Really great experience and great help. Ron and Whitney are very professional, fast and productive. Work AMAZING together as a team, fast, efficient and careful moving fragile and delicate belongings. Also careful around walls and other furniture. I would absolutely recommend them and use them again if needed .
Charles and his crew really busted their tails. They were on time, well prepared and very respectful of our property and us. I would recommend them again.

All Semmes 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.
