The Cost of Hiring Movers in Stanford, CA
On average, it costs $425.31 to hire moving helpers in Stanford, CA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Stanford, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $88.24.
These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.
The Cost of Full-Service Moving
The average cost of a local full-service move in Stanford, CA is $905.24, with an average hourly rate of $130.39. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.
Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

| Moving Truck Included | ✅ | ❌ |
| Loading | ✅ | ✅ |

The whole team was absolutely incredible. They communicated constantly both with me and each other to ensure the pod was packed in the most efficient way possible. Clearly a highly specialized and hardworking team that will make your moving experience easier!!!
WOW these guys did a great job making sure everything was safe and ready for the drive south. They were fast and efficient and knew how to place everything in the Container. They also resolved the issue with a leaky POD since it rained the day before I would definitely hire again and again
They were very kind and responsive. Showed up and got to work. We had two Pod containers and they packed them so efficiently. Were we worried about room but they got everything in there, packed the right way and safely. I am a real estate agent and will be recommending them to my clients going forward. Thank you for the great job.
I was really impressed with quality of this work! Hard to believe how they put all staff in! So nice to communicate ! With all my respect highly recommend this brothers team!
Noah and Carlos were fantastic movers, we recommend them without hesitation. They arrived on time, were friendly, efficient and professional and even gave us tips for unpacking. We were very glad to have them, stellar work all around!
Very efficient and very fast loading my house into a pod. They played a beautiful game of Tetris, much better than I could have alone. Very helpful nice guys.
This was a wonderful team, all the way around. I got great advice before I booked, and they were very helpful with some challenging small items. They took great care to make sure everything was secure and safe.
Noah and Carlos were amazing. You want them to help you move. They were calm and efficient. Wrapped my furniture very well. They were true professionals and I feel lucky they moved my belongings.
Excellent moving experience! The team was punctual, friendly, and professional. They carefully fit everything into my tiny moving pod, which was no easy task. Would absolutely hire again!
The guys were awesome! Usually with paid movers they work slow and stretch the job out. These guys worked at such a great pace and unloaded the 6 hour load job in a little over an hour. I was very impressed. If you are looking for a hard working crew that won’t slack on the job, give these guys a call! Well done.
These guys worked! They communicated about arrival time and showed up on time. They worked very hard, helped make sure our stuff was protected and worked tirelessly to get things moved quickly. They had packing know how and maximized what went into our storage unit. Would definitely use them again.
Excellent movers. I highly recommend them. They are professional, diligent and super fast. I had other movers help me the prior two days and MovingZoom was by far better than the prior movers and they exceeded my expectations. Moreover, the teamwork between the two movers was phenomenal and they skillfully loaded two large moving pods.
