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. 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 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 more affordable.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $$$ | $ |
| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | ✅ | ✅ |
| Unloading Help | ✅ | ✅ |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |
The Cost of Moving in Shrub Oak, NY
In Shrub Oak labor-only moving help typically costs between $339.56 and $739.66.
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 $79.34 an hour.

The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

|---|---|---|
| Shrub Oak, NY | $442.75 | $1,145.95 |
| New York | $446.29 | $1,177.89 |
| The United States | $451.87 | $1,167.76 |
Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $442.75 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Shrub Oak, NY, with an average hourly rate of $79.34. Your final price will depend on how long your move takes.

I used them twice to help empty 16 ft moving containers into our new home. They were easy to schedule, on time, and responsible with our stuff. I would definitely book with them again!
They were fantastic. So quick and willing to move anything, anywhere. They couldn’t have been more helpful. They were on time and efficient. I’d definitely use them again.
THE BEST EVER!!!! Absolutely incredible service. Professional, communicative, friendly, and absolute pros. Took care of us & our things and offered amazing advice. 20/10 reccomend!
These three fellows were so efficient! I was overwhelmed with packing but they arrived, took over and within two hours had accomplished the task at hand efficiently, paying close attention to what was staying in the apartment and what was going in the POD. I will be reserving their services for the next phase in September. A job well done!! Thank you!
The guys arrived on time. My moving truck did not, but they were very patient and understanding. They handled my 5 floor walk up on a hot NYC July day (sorry!) without complaint and incredible efficiency. They were really friendly, polite, conscientious, and appreciative, despite that. Would recommend!
Easily the best moving crew I’ve ever worked with / hired. On time, prepared, had their own tools, they had a plan and executed that plan. They took apart any furniture that needed taking apart to fit outside, they were fast and efficient, they informed me of everything as they worked, and were kind and courteous. I will be hiring them again for sure.
Really incredible team - they had everything out of the apartment within two hours and were super careful with all my belongings. Will definitely use them again!
Steve and his team were incredible. Several surprises came up during the day in terms of extra help I needed and they kept rolling with it, super professional and helpful. Will definitely look them up for my next move.
They arrived early, communicated regularly and took care of our move with no hiccups or issues. It was smooth from start to finish and, while i had some nerves about this because it's our first place in NYC and could've been complicated, they made it easy. I cannot recommend them enough.
Very fast, very prompt, wonderful service. They are true experts with a masterful knowledge for loading pods to maximize space. We didn’t think it would all fit but it did. They did an amazing job!
I’m thoroughly impressed with the packing service I received! The team was professional ,and efficient, and took good care of my belongings .They wrapped each item carefully. I highly recommend packing service to anyone who needs a reliable and stress free packing solution.
Don’t play Tetris or Jenga against these guys! We were amazed how efficiently they used the space in our POD. We actually had to find some more things for them because we never thought it all would fit. A very polite and hardworking team that probably saved me from either back surgery or a coronary. Thank you!

Why Book Your Shrub Oak Move with HireAHelper?
Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Shrub Oak
You've got moving questions — we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Shrub Oak.
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 can’t 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 clicks—even 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 $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
While some Shrub Oak movers may offer basic moving coverage, the federal government only mandates insurance for movers that start and end in different states. HireAHelper is committed to protecting your move by offering automatic repair protection ($.60/lb), a $1,000 damage protection guarantee, and SmartProtection™, which is our optional coverage for labor-only moves with three tiers between $2,500 and $10,000.
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 mover’s 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 have—make 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 for 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.
