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.

Crew of 2 upon arrival started to unload the U-Haul trailer placing the items in the garage or in the house. Followed directions and took care in the handling of the items. Will utilize them again.
They were so nice! I was also extremely impressed by their efficiency. They moved so quickly, but that speed in no way damaged or poorly affected my things. Very grateful for their help, as they made the process stress-free for me. Thank you! :)
Kendall and Dave did an excellent job! Highly recommend them for all your moving needs. They repacked our pods with great efficiency and were very customers focused.
Movers were safe, speedy, and strategic. They packed our u-haul tightly and filled the space perfectly, despite my mistake of renting too large a vehicle.
Samuel Services was wonderful to work with, they were on time (actually called and advised they could come earlier if I wanted), professional, thoughtful in their handling of our items and very quick working. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone needing moving assistance!
They did a fantastic job moving a considerable amount of furniture and belongings into a Pods container, expert packing and care! Highly recommend!!!!
They did a great job and packed the truck really well! They were patient with a delayed truck and broken elevator. They were professional and pleasant!
DMV Discount Moving and Cleaning was super helpful. They arrived on time and got straight to work. Both movers were friendly and polite and did everything we asked of them with time to spare. I would recommend booking them for sure.
I loved working with Prestige Laborers! They were easy to communicate with and flexible to meet my needs. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and were very professional. I will definitely refer to them again for any future moves.
I would highly recommend hired helpers for your next move! They were punctual, friendly, careful of our items. I would use them again in my next move.
Kendall and crew were great. They were professional, quick, the unloaded two PODS on two different days and did not scratch one wall or door. They placed the furniture where I asked and put bed frames, sofa sectionals and the dinning room table together. I definitely recommend them. Thanks Kendall and your partner Great Job!!
Alex and Mike were the best! Efficient and knowledgeable about the moving process. I would highly recommend those two for your moving needs! Will use them again!

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 Stafford 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.
