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.

These guys were amazing- arrived early, stayed a little later than scheduled, and handled our items with care. They made every effort to make sure all of our needs were taken care of. I would recommend these guys to anyone! If at all I move around the Altoona area again, these guys are first on my list to call.
They were running late but they called which was fine. Worked very well together and very polite and professional. I had water bottles for them due to the heat. I will have them again to help me unload my
Jeff and Mark were excellent! Two of the nicest guys you will ever meet. Congenial, neat and clean. Did not waste time and were very cautious. I am telling everyone about Zooming Moving LLC. GREAT JOB GUYS!!!
Very responsive. On-time. They know how to pack a truck carefully and effectively. Easy to communicate with. Couldn’t have asked for a better result.
Very prompt with their timing. Professional all the way through moving all of my stuff. They asked questions on everything that they weren’t sure on. If I wasn’t moving out of state, I would definitely use them again.
Vince and Jake were absolutely amazing they were very nice efficient and thoughtful they made this move a wonderful experience they took such a good care of our stuff I definitely will recommend this company and I will use them in my future moves. Thank you so much.
Fantastic team! Super fast and very carful w/ our items. We moved into a 2nd story apartment and they were awesome helping us move in. Would definitely recommend and we will be using them again!
Very happy indeed !!! Our Movers were the DREAM TEAM !! Nate, Michael and Travis were prompt, courteous and polite, incredibly organized, and worked well together. But most of all, they were FAST. They were careful and respectful of all our belongings, and FAST !! They literally finished within minutes of our agreed upon times. I most definitely would recommend Them Movers.
We arrived in Greensburg with a almost full 20 foot U Haul truck after a long trip across country. Our movers got everything into our new apartment where wanted it quickly. They also asked for confirmation for where our things went and were friendly. I would recommend this company to others looking for a smooth move and break from straining your bodies!
Hired pro Moves for a 2h move to/from a lock space. Matt and Devon were new at the job but were very helpful and hard-working and polite. The work was completed in the time projected. The Hire-a-helper escrow payment system worked flawlessly as well. Absolutely no problems.Would use again.
I only had 12 feet in the UPack we rented. A. J. Helpers were very professional and loaded the trailer to the roof using every inch of space. I had no idea of how to do this and I relied on them to do the job, they did it and did right. I highly recommend them for your move!
Fast, professional and most important they take care of your items as they load and unload them. I used Keller for a local move and would highly recommend this family-run business.

All Seward 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.
