Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move
When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. 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 movers to load or unload your stuff.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably less expensive.

The Cost of Moving in Shelton, WA
In Shelton labor-only moving help typically costs between $357.15 and $757.32.
If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $90.70 an hour.
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 you’d pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenient—but that convenience comes at a price.

By far the best experience I've ever had with movers! The team was attentive, asked lots of questions, and handled our property with great care. They were also prompt and professional. Devin and Marquis were the best. I would recommend Lendary movers to anyone and everyone!
Excellent 2 man team. Arrived on time, did a fast, professional evaluation of what needed to be moved, and got to work. Had the furniture and boxes loaded, strapped down, and said goodbye on time.
Great work. Very quick. Listens to directions regarding special handling of boxes. Communicates well. Gave a good heads up before arriving. Would use again.
They work really hard to fit all my stuff on my containers, moving everything pretty carefully. Really good protecting packages and my furniture also they know exactly how to disassemble what I need. I really recommend this guys!!!
Hired to move a few heavy or bulky items down a flight of stairs into a rental truck then help us load boxes and smaller furniture until we hit the 2 hours. They not only took care of the hard stuff, but also loaded virtually everything for us while we stayed out of their way. Greatly exceeded our expectations and we would hire again!
Sam and Moh were amazing! They made our move seamless and stress-free. The team was punctual, professional, and handled our belongings with great care. They completed the job efficiently, and everything arrived in perfect condition. Highly recommend their services!
Very personable and knowledgeable, super efficient on packing the pod and hard worker. He accomadated my needs in very short notice when I found myself in a bind . I will highly recommend Michael and this partner.
Angela’s team was amazing. We hired them to help pack our moving truck and they packed it so well we had so much room we could bring more with us on our move than expected.
Mike and Pete were FANTASTIC! We had never used a moving company due to the fear of having our furniture or home damaged in the process. These two men dispelled that theory. Whenever we are in need of movers again, we will certainly call on them. Thank you isn't enough!
They did a fantastic job. They were right on time and the guys were very fast, efficient in their packing (very important when you're paying by the linear foot!), and very friendly. Their job is extremely difficult, and I appreciate how hard they work. I will absolutely recommend them to anyone else that needs moving labor assistance!
The crew was FANTASTIC! They were on time, super helpful, friendly and knowledgeable and packed everything with care. They were able to get our job finished in time and had a very high quality start to finish. I would 100% recommend them! We also had a wonderful experience with the management at AAA - she was super helpful, responsive and really made the whole experience better. Thank you!
They were great! Both were considerate and very safe with all our things. They made sure everything was right where it was supposed to be and everything was in good condition. Would recommend!

"If you’re driving over the Hood Canal bridge, it is a drawbridge, so leave with plenty of extra time in case it’s open to let a ship through. Be prepared to wait in an extremely long line and wait up to 30 mins in summer weather"
