The Cost of Hiring Movers in Shakopee, MN

On average, it costs $374.06 to hire moving helpers in Shakopee, MN. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Shakopee, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $94.97.

These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.

The Cost of Full-Service Moving

The average cost of a local full-service move in Shakopee, MN is $856.06, with an average hourly rate of $129.62. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.

Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

These guys were absolutely amazing. They moved our 300-pound, unwieldy treadmill. They protected all our furniture. They were on time and were super positive. Robbie and his team went above and beyond to make our move go smoothly. I am so grateful to them. We couldn’t have done this without them.

Excellent, efficient work. They helped us move/load things in half the time we anticipated, and did so without cutting any corners. Everything was done super well, and even my very critical parents who always seem to have a complaint about something had to admit the movers did a great job!

Hey they were late but I understand that. People before me running over but the guys got here they got their nose to the grindstone and they got done. More than we thought could fit in the truck did and we are very happy with the service we are looking forward to unloading on the 1st.

Did a great job loading up everything from a one bedroom apartment to a 12 foot moving truck for an interstate move. Very friendly, courteous, treated all the stuff with care and packed things in the truck so they won’t move around during the drive. Highly recommend them.

Robbie and his co-worker were right on time and worked very hard to unload our truck. They were careful with our furniture and asked where we wanted things to be located when they brought them into our home. I would highly recommend them for moving labor help!
