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, it's considerably more affordable.

On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 336,129 verified customer reviews
They were fantastic. I was hours late due to a blown tire (do not use Budget Truck Rental, unsafe tires, horrible customer service!) and Best of the Best Moving was totally flexible. I would recommended Best of the Best Moving without reservation; I couldn't have done it without them!!!!
Guys arrived on time. Very friendly and respectful. Extremely careful with everything. Fantastic couple of guys. I’d hire them again in a heart beat!!
Dee was very good. She was very respectful and had command of her crew. They all worked very hard. They were not on time but I believe it was because the last job they were coming from was delayed from heavy rains. I would use them again.
These guys were very professional, efficient, and friendly. They came prepared and acted like no job was too big or too small for them to take care of. I will definitely use them next time i need moving services.
TEN STARS... Not just 5. This team of guys worked so well together professionally packed and prepared my truck for a 4 hour trip through 2 states then a third final stop Virginia. I was very confident and when we opened back door to unpack nothing even slightly moved from the time they closed the door.. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC TEAMWORK
This crew was awesome. Arrived on time, got right to work, asked questions when unsure of anything, and kept working the entire time. They made the optimum use of space on the truck for better utilization of making the move easier. I highly recommend this team.
Andre and Kyle were very personable and professional. Even though the furniture was old and crusty they took very good care of it in loading it into the truck and unloading it into the storage unit. I would hire them again. Well worth the money.
Terrence and Jamar were great, and we enthusiastically recommend them. They came through when we were in a bind, as the movers we hired on our own did not show up. Terrence and Jamar were great at packing the space in the truck. They handled all the big and heavy stuff, which helped us reserve our energy for unpacking. We would hire them again.
This is my second time with the magnificent mighty movers and I love them. The team I worked with was jade, Jay, Quannny, and jahvon. They worked together effectively and effectively to get my 26 foot truck loaded up and unload in the time I asked them too. I always recommend them to people who are moving trust me they are truly magnificent! Thank you guys for your hard work
They were on time, prepared for the job and made almost all my stuff fit in the truck. I mean, they were very creative in organizing my stuff in the truck. No damages were noticed while unloading the truck. Keep up the good job.
My 2 movers were exceptional. They came, got busy and got the job done. They worked very hard. I would highly recommend them to anyone. I would use them again definitely if need be!
Awesome work ethic They were both very Professional and very polite. Zechariah and Tyler are fine, hard working young men trying their best to make their way honestly in this world.
