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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |

| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | ✅ | ✅ |
| Unloading Help | ✅ | ✅ |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |
The Cost of Moving in Union City, CA
In Union City labor-only moving help typically costs between $358.17 and $663.28.
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 $96.05 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.
Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |

California | $370.37 | $796.70 |
The United States | $356.65 | $821.07 |

They movers were extremely professional and competent. They were able to pack our entire house into three U-pack cubes (we should have ordered four). They helped break down beds, cover furniture in sheets, and even brought their own moving supplies when we ran out. I would highly, highly recommend them.
Very professional. They were conscientious of preserving not just the items they were moving but the apartments they were moving things in and out of. Great communication, too.
The whole team was absolutely incredible. They communicated constantly both with me and each other to ensure the pod was packed in the most efficient way possible. Clearly a highly specialized and hardworking team that will make your moving experience easier!!!
They were very kind and responsive. Showed up and got to work. We had two Pod containers and they packed them so efficiently. Were we worried about room but they got everything in there, packed the right way and safely. I am a real estate agent and will be recommending them to my clients going forward. Thank you for the great job.
I’d originally booked with the company and the day before they were supposed to come they declined the job which very much angered me. So I went with this company and I couldn’t be happier with them. The two gentleman that showed up were extremely professional very knowledgeable and they packed my moving pod with not even an inch to spare. They were so excellent. I highly recommend this company.
The speed was impressive, he worked with my suggestions, and he made me believe in magic with a real life 3D Tetris mind to fit everything neatly. Impressive kind lead and very nice helper too!
Second time ive used movingzoom and they were as good as the last time. On time, respectful, careful with breakables and furniture. Couldnt recommend them more
Noah and Carlos were fantastic movers, we recommend them without hesitation. They arrived on time, were friendly, efficient and professional and even gave us tips for unpacking. We were very glad to have them, stellar work all around!
Two strong guys showed up and knocked out the project super fast. The communicated when they were coming and were on time to the expected arrival time. They moved everything I asked and did not damage anything in the house. Very professional, fast, and hard working. I would definitely use again.
They were all amazing. I would use them again. They were all very careful with the items and nothing was damaged. They definitely exceeded my expectations.
Great job, great team. The team of Austin and Jay did a fantastic job. They were on time, worked hard, and knew what they were doing. They loaded the container with care, and knew how it do it in a way that maximized space and kept everything as safe as possible. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat.
The guys were awesome! Usually with paid movers they work slow and stretch the job out. These guys worked at such a great pace and unloaded the 6 hour load job in a little over an hour. I was very impressed. If you are looking for a hard working crew that won’t slack on the job, give these guys a call! Well done.
