The Cost of Hiring Movers in Townsend, DE
On average, it costs $461.62 to hire moving helpers in Townsend, DE. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Townsend, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $79.87.
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 Townsend, DE is $854.11, with an average hourly rate of $122.40. 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.

Joey and Michael showed up on time and ready to work! They were courteous, professional , and respectful of my time. They moved a bedroom of furniture into a storage area near my home and assisted me with loading broken items onto my moving truck for drop off to the landfill tomorrow! I am super grateful for their help and it was all done in 2 hours! Thank you, On Go Moving and Hauling!
Kingston, Milton and Gill were amazing. Professional, skillful and kind. They did a great job. I’d highly recommend them and hope to get them for our second POD. Thank you!!!
They did a great job. I would definitely use them again and I would certainly recommend them to anyone. They were friendly, they were respectful. They had a good sense of humor. And they were very careful bringing things into the house.
Excellent morning with Rodney and his crew. They were on time, worked really hard, and were very respectful and careful with my stuff. I would recommend them completely and wholeheartedly. Great work guys!
Absolutely amazing! Kind. Professional. Organized and THE MOST HARD working group of people I have met in a long time. I can't say enough positive things about Kareem and his crew You will be in excellent hands!!!! Kim
Chuck and Karim were very polite and conscious with my belongings. They were effecirnt and hard working. When the project took more time then I assumed they were willing to stay the extra to ensure the move was complete.
Karim and his crew were great. He stayed in contact with me regarding what time they would arrive as I was the last job of the day. They took great pride in taking care of my belongs. They were very efficient at packing my storage unit for me.
These guys are the best!!!! Unloaded two 16 foot pods containers into a single 20 foot trailer. Unloading , loading and packed the trailer so that everything fit perfectly. Signed up for 4 hours they completed the job in just a little over 2 hours!!!! Mike and his crew are very friendly and hard working! We will definitely get them when we move again!
The guys from Earth Movers were friendly, were well prepared, worked well together and enjoyed their work. They also worked efficiently which saved us money and were respectful of the property and furniture they were moving. We would definitely hire them again.
The best Moovers I have ever had in my life. They came in a very bad rain storm amd less then an hour notice and moved everything to perfection. They are wickedly fast and I would definitely recommend them to anyone that is in need of movers. Hands down the BEST !!!!
Thank you for taking care of my concern, saving me a lot of money, and getting me connected with a five star team, those guys, went far and above the call of duty, very professional, and friendly. could carry a good conversation in a crunch, lol they were on time, and just was a great experience all around.
Great work once both guys showed up and we finished a 2 hour job in 35 minutes, but the guys were misscheduled (which i don't fault them for) so one guy showed up on time and the other guy showed up an hour later. Would recommend and use again, but just make sure your timing is a little flexible.
