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.

The first crew was great and efficient! The second crew not as efficient but got the job done. They were very good and I would certainly recommend them!!
Charles and his work partner (sorry, don't remember his name) were amazing. I had serious doubts that all of my belongings would fit in my 8ft container, but made it happen and took care of my stuff. Highly recommend.
On time, efficient, professional and extremely strong, Frank and Javail were the best. If I could give than more stars I would. Best moving experience ever- and I’ve move over 19 times.
The crew arrived a little late due to the weather but they made up for it with their approach to using the job completed. The crew was very respectful, not only through personal communication, but they handled your property and furniture with respect. They definitely were prepared to handle the task on hand. In the end they made my job and the transition must easier.
Anthony and Taylor were on time and prepared. They were respectful of our property and goods and they worked hard to get the job done within time frame allocated. Anthony also helped our contractor move some items in the house, which was much appreciated. I will definitely use MBK Moving & Hauling again!
Excellent guys who did a great job! Very thankful to have hired them. They were courteous, efficient, listened to directions, happily moved heavy boxes, furniture and books. They emptied a full 16' pod in less than 2.5 hours.
Ramson and Marcelin were solid from start to finish. They showed up on time, communicated clearly, and treated my belongings with care. Nothing was rushed, nothing was mishandled, and the entire move felt organized and professional. If you want movers who are respectful, careful, and dependable, this is a good crew to hire.
Mohammad was very professional and courteous. He was on time and completed the job in a timely manner. I would feel comfortable using them again any day.
They were great. On time. Completed project within the estimated time frame. They took great care with the furniture and avoiding hitting any walls. Extra considerate taking shoes on and off when entering house on a muddy day even though it was a pain. They did a great job.
They did an amazing job, didn't think they were going to show up because of the snow but they did, and I was very grateful that I was able to sleep in my bed,
The movers were great. They were very professional and efficient. They did a thorough job of moving my belongings and I appreciate their positive attitude and effort. I would recommend to work colleagues, friends and family. Thank you very much.
They were very much on-time They were courteous and very efficient. I would be more than happy to hire them again if I need to move in that general location in Gettysburg PA.j

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.
