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 Sterling, VA
In Sterling labor-only moving help typically costs between $225.98 and $821.32.
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 $78.06 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.

Frank and Jamal were awesome. Showed up right on time and got everything moved out safely and efficiently in just 2 hours. They did a great job packing my uhaul and making sure all my belongings were safe. Couldn’t have done it without their help, highly highly recommend them!
Tony and Joe (?) showed up on time and were professional and fulfilled the order perfectly. I would highly recommend them for any job small or large!
Charles and his team did really well. They tried to move a huge mattress which will now go into the trash but I appreciated the effort just the same. Definitely recommend them .
Ziggy ane Ben were a great team! They were very professional, knowledgeable about packing a POD and efficient. They came prepared with tools for disassembling our bed and extra packing supplies. We were a mother and daughter moving out of a college apartment. It was nice to feel so safe with this kind team. They dove right in after looking at the apartment and needed no instruction.
I had a great experience with this firm. They connected me with a local provider who came when I needed them and did a very good job. The workers were pleasant and efficient. I could use the Hire a Helper (Simple Mover) website or the phone to reschedule, and it was handled seamlessly. They were extremely flexible. Highly recommended.
Team was on time, very courteous and friendly. Handle everything with care and completed the task well ahead of schedule. We are reusing them again to move back in, highly recommend the service. Kim L
They were on time and ready to get to work. They made this move easy. He came in and said "No worries, do not stress we have this." I would recommend them and will use them again.
These guys were extremely professional. They did a fantastic job packing the pod. They know how to make the most of little space for packing. I recommend them.
Step by Step did a great job unpacking our POD! Alex was the lead on the job and was very polite & helpful with everything. All items were handled with care and I would definitely use them in the future if ever needed.
MBK Moving is top notch! Anthony & Jay were prompt, professional, expert problem solvers & friendly. They worked harmoniously & efficiently. I highly recommend that anyone needing movers enlist their services.
Super helpful, polite, two young gentlemen! Arrived on time and got everything done so smoothly and efficiently. We were super happy with their service and 100% recommend Kendall and Dave!
The helpers were both on time and went to work right away getting our belongings into the container. The packer was amazing and was great at securing our belongings inside the container for secure shipment. I would highly recommend John and his team.
