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.

Daniel and Isaiah were awesome! They showed up on time, were extremely pleasant and helped me unload a fully loaded 26 ft moving truck in 2 hours. They did this without touching a single wall or door frame. I would highly recommend their services to anyone that needs a hand moving!
No issues moving. I had some moving equipment they used that they wouldn’t have had otherwise, but I’m sure they still would’ve got the job done. Easy choice to use them again.
Anthony and Daniel were amazing. They were on time and ready to work. They took great care of my things and had wonderful manners. They were quick and efficient even when it was raining bad when we were moving things. Overall Anthony and Daniel were some of the best moving labor help I have ever had.
The gentleman didn't waste any time and they were very efficient. Very considerate of the goods they were handling. Attentive to my instructions and needs.
Daniel and Jonathan were above and beyond professional. I showed them what to load, and they went right to work, no questions asked. They were quick and proficient. Definitely would recommend this company to others.
They went above and beyond in meeting my moving needs. They would be my first call if I ever needed help moving again. Clarence and his team knocked out the truck and the attic storage unit in three hours. Could not believe it.
Johnny and his crew were wonderful. They showed up on-time and work extremely hard during some extreme heat that Alabama was having. Not all our items fit into our POD and his staff were able to come back a different day once our second POD arrived. We would highly recommend them to help with your coming move.
Brantley Professional Movers did an awesome job on an extremely hot August day in Alabama. They were punctual, prepared, courteous and hard working. We would definitely recommend them and will use them again. Thank you, Gary!
Absolutely amazing! Gary and his crew went above and beyond packing our stuff. They not only packed all of our belongings with care, but also stayed late in order to ensure our move went as smooth as possible. Great people and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thanks again Gary!
Our truck was almost an hr late on arrival. These men did not let that detour them. They had the kice done in the same timeframe they were working so very hard but never lacked professionalism or kindness. Thank you very much for the hard work. We appreciate you.
Outstanding. Antonio and Daniel arrived on time, were professional, nonstop workers, helpful with furniture placement and kind. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to family and friends. Thank you, we are grateful for your help!
The team was awesome. Communicated well and we're flexible with changes to the moving plan. Fast, effective and able to move off/heavy objects without damage. Would use again and recommend to anyone in the area.

All Troy 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.
