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.

On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 321,975 verified customer reviews
On time, FAST, in a great mood! Made the move in a lot easier considering the other movers packed some of our stuff so it would break. I would recommend these guys time and time again.
This group was very friendly and efficient. I had some unexpected set backs and they were willing to work with me and came to help at a later time after finishing other jobs in the meantime. I would definitely recommend them.
They did a great job!! I hired two men but they showed up with three and were able to complete what I needed in the two hours I hired them for! I would use them again and would highly recommond them to anyone looking for help moving.
Since I didn't have a real big moving truck the workers had to travel a couple times. I don't think they appreciated to have to stay longer. They were not able to finish.
Chris and Carey arrived 15 minutes early and we're incredibly polite and professional. They helped guide us through the whole process and did a great job packing the truck. I would most definitely recommend them for your moving needs.
You can trust Doug and his crew (his sons) with your move. There was great communication, they were careful with my items, and made sure my truck was packed perfectly for the long drive. Doug even called the day after my move was complete to make sure unloading also went smoothly. They made my move relatively stress-free. Thanks guys!
Arrived in agreed upon window. Were prepared for the job. Worked like rented mules while being as careful as possible with our goods. Would definitely use again if I had need.
Very thankful for the mighty movers team. They were punctual, communicative, and professional. We needed them very last minute to unload, with little to no notice they arrived the next day and helped make our move just a bit less stressful. Thank you both for all of your help, will definitely keep you guys in mind in the future.
Great service. Arrived in the 1hr window that was stated. Walked the property before and after to make sure they moved the items we wanted moved. Easy reservation and payment process. Will definitely be using them again.
Jeff and Brian were WONDERFUL. Very caring, on time, respectful, and worked hard. I am a Realtor in town, and have sung their praises to all. I would hire that team again in a heartbeat. My client was an older gal who couldn't have been happier with their professionalism and friendliness. A++++
We can't say enough about how pleased we were with Smooth Move Crew! They called ahead to confirm a window for their arrival time and then called again when they were on their way. Chris and Josh were courteous, professional and efficient. We will definitely call Smooth Move Crew for any future moving needs!
I was extremely pleased with our moving labor helpers. They worked extremely hard and fast to get our uhaul unloaded quickly and safely. We are moving again 6 months, so we will use them for packing, loading, and unloading. Thank you so much. Amy

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.

- 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 Towanda 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.
