The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service
Even after factoring in the cost of a rental truck, gas, and supplies, labor-only moving usually costs less than half of what youâd pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenientâbut 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 | |
|---|---|---|
| Shannon, IL | $348.74 | $844.04 |
| Illinois | $408.32 | $1,085.66 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $348.74 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Shannon, IL, with an average hourly rate of $79.80. 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 | $322.30 | 2.02 movers | 2.2 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, itâs considerably more affordable.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $$$ | $ |
| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | â | â |
| Unloading Help | â | â |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |

Ray was PHENOMENAL!!! was prompt worked hard and brought some knowledge that got our job done hours faster than if he wasn't there. If you need a mover HIRE RAY!!!
This guy came with short notice and did an excellent job. We would have been lost without him and his crew. The took great care of our stuff and got us moved in quick! I would hire him again. He was great.
These guys are awesome . They gave a call ahead and were early on time . Quick fast and friendly . Finished up the loading ahead in time . Thumbs up to them !
Tyrone and Herbert were outstanding workers. They were professional, polite, hard working, fast moving, unbelievably strong and efficient. The two men worked beautifully together and did not waste one moment.
Kept us posted about their arrival date and time. Frederick was very organized and had to deal with two people who originally were to work not showing up. He found very good replacements. Very courteous and treated us as valued customers. Would highly recommend him.
Amazing movers!! Guys came out promptly, helped us unload our truck on a same-day notice after our original moving company failed to show up. They were professional, reliable, and experienced. Cannot recommend this moving group enough!! Thank youuuuu!!
The guys from Janesville WI. were on time, very professional, they handled everything with care and I couldn't have moved without this service and the team! They finished within the timeframe and left everything exactly as I wanted. Thank you so much! I would 100% recommend!
Yes, they were on time. Yes, they were prepared. Yes, they worked hard Yes, they were respectful of my stuff. Yes, I would definitely use them again
Great team! Certainly know just how to get the job done! Very efficient and very nice to have them helping in my home. If I need help again, I will call Frederic.
On time, nothing damaged, stayed over an hour when it ran longer. Only complaint after releasing them their supervisor came and asked for a tip, while I was satisfied with the service I would have tipped them if I felt it was appropriate. I did tip them but only had a few ones and the supervisors response was it was better than nothing.
The guys were right on time and did an outstanding job with everything, especially considering the (-27) outside temperature. Would definitely recommend them to anyone who asked me.
Overall positive experience. Flexible scheduling especially for the weekend. They worked hard to bring in all of the many boxes and other furniture from the truck and trailer. No complaints from me.

The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we canât find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicksâeven same-day in many areas.
- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it. That means you donât pay extra to use HireAHelperâin fact, you may save money.
All Shannon 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.
