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.

Very good crew they came early, started right away to work, did not stop for 3 hours .very efficient in the way they filled the pod’s, they maximized the space ,and had a plan to put as much as possible in it.what a difference with the previous crew.
Tim and Nelson were great. On time. Worked virtually non stop. Professionals. Knew exactly how to cube out a 28ft trailer. Polite and very engaging. Highly recommend this outfit.
Great job; however, I think the loading of 1.5 bedrooms of prepacked items should have taken less than the 3 hours it did in an elevator building.
Hire a helper went out of their way to accommodate me when moving furniture into my house from a pod. I asked if they could fit me in earlier than my original appointment and they rescheduled so I had my furniture 3 days early. Their helpers were on time, worked efficiently and finished the job in the time contracted. I would hire them again.
The guys were friendly careful and jumped right to work as soon as they got there. They made quick work of the move and I couldn't have done it without them. Thanks guys!
All In One Moving Service did an excellent job! They were on time, prepared for the job, worked hard, no items damaged and we'd definitely use them again!
Our crew of Shane Lord and Jay Chambers were exceptional ! On time, prepared, great work ethic, respectful and courteous, and would definitely use WB Movers again. Thank You !
Top Notch Movers Did a wonderful job moving me into my new apartment in Charlottesville. They work hard and are knowledgeable and respectful. I will definitely use them again and I recommend them to others when you need help moving.
Did a fantastic job, showed up, asked what needed to be moved, and delivered no questions asked. Worked with me too and were incredibly professional when the invoice had the wrong address. Gave it 10 minutes, they had arrived and we did the rest of the move without problem. Absolutely would recommend.
Excellent service. They called several days in advance to advise me on shrink wrap, blankets, etc. They arrived on time. They both finished ahead of schedule and wear able to fit all my contents into a single POD. They brought extra tape and tools when I quickly ran out. I was very impressed. They were friendly and professional. Strongly recommend to anyone in the Richmond / central Virginia area.
Kevin from Carter Moving was excellent! Kept me informed as to schedule of thir day, and when they were going to arrive. He had 3 young guys, total of 4 men , they unloaded my 16" container in less than 2 hours, set up my beds, attached the mirror to the dresser, and unwrapped all furniture of the protective plastic wrap! Highly recommend Carter Moving!
These guys are rockstars. They moved us into our 1 bedroom apartment in 90 minutes and even when we tried to help them, they told us to sit down and relax. Both movers were incredibly kind and respectful, and when our lease is up next year, we’ll be calling them for help again!

All Staunton City 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.
