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. 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 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 more affordable.

The Cost of Moving in Union City, MI

In Union City labor-only moving help typically costs between $343.87 and $687.19. 

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 $80.93 an hour.

Find a lower price for the same move? We’ll match it—because making your move easier and more affordable in Union City is what we’re here for.

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.

Lester was very good at communicating before and during the service. He was on time, well prepared, and very professional while also friendly and kind. He worked quickly but with great care for my home and belongings. The expected time was two hour but he completed all the furniture moves in a little over an hour, including disassembly and reassembly. I highly recommend him and his team.

Muscle Men helped to move a very fine bedroom suiite from a home to my home. The mattress itself weighed at least 200 pounds. They provided protection for the cabinets and everything arrived in perfect condition. They helped set up the bed and placed all the cabinets. I strongly recommend this company.

We more stairs to work with than I had originally considered when I set up the appointment but they worked through the changes and were a great help. they were on time ready to work and took good care of our property. I would use them again, but I hope I don't have to move again for a long time

Aaron and team were absolutely fantastic. They arrived on time, were ready to go, were very friendly, and did not stop until they finished. They were incredibly efficient and were able to fit all of our belongings in the truck when I thought we'd run out of room. You'd be crazy to hire anyone else if you live in SW Michigan.

They were on time, worked fast and carefully . Couldn’t ask for more. They even accommodated a shift in our unload time, that was caused by U-Haul changing our vehicle rental time and location.
