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.

They were on time and experience with UPack/ABF Freight. They were organized and completed well within the allocated time. The load did not move during shipping. Would use them again.
The two helpers, Sam and Chris were friendly and very professional. They followed our instructions exactly as stated and were very careful with all of our property. They were so efficient that the job was completed long before the minimum hours expired.
I could not be happier. Tony and Mason were very personable. Everything was done quickly and efficiently. When they were done they did a quick run through to make sure nothing was missed. I would recommend them to any of my friends.
Our movers were great and worked so hard to get everything done we expected. They were very respectful and we would definitely use them again. Thank you so much.
Awesome personnel. Both Romeo & John were very professional.courteous and consciences. We plan on asking for them we move into our home. All your workers been to emulate these young men. VERY SATISFIED.
They did not show till 12:20pm. All the rest of questions I would give them a 10 very professional and worked very hard. I would request them again. The only problem was the lateness.
These guys were amazing. Super nice and hard working. No damage unloading everything out of 2 containers. They worked theirs butts off u til the job was completed. Would use again and recommend to anyone.
Arrived at the very end of the scheduled appointment but these guys were fast, strong, and did an excellent job fitting so much into my truck. I would definitely hire these guys again without hesitation.
They did a very good job and kept moving the entire rime until al was unloaded. They showed on time, complete in less than the time allotted and were very friendly. I would hire them again in a heart beat.
Our helpers arrived right on time to unload our truck. They were extremely efficient and courteous. They were careful to make sure everything made it in without bumping into walls or scratching the hard wood floors. We will hire them for our next move and highly recommend them to others.
They were AMAZING! Instead of 2 helpers 3 came. They worked nonstop in the heat and were very efficient. The packed my uhaul perfectly and my storage unit precisely. I was more than satisfied and I will definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone who needs a helping hand. Good group of guys! I am VERY appreciative of their service! They work real hard!
The guys were very helpful on the hottest day of the year! They did not complain, but continued to work diligently. They treated our items well and were very respectful.

All Shelby 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.
