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.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Valley Center, CA

In Valley Center labor-only moving help typically costs between $342.00 and $989.00. 

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 $77.54 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.

I was shifting boxes and sorting things in preparation for a move. I was helped by Marquis and Damien. Ken also arrived later to help. The team was great: fast and efficient, thoughtful, polite and respectful. They gave me intelligent feedback on the sorting. Very helpful in every way. I would certainly hire them again and recommend them to others.

I moved from NorCal with a rented Uhaul. San Diego family movers was contracted to unload and move me in. The service and communication were excellent. Brandon was very efficient and timely with communication and logistics. Sid and Shaq were very professional and service oriented in their role as movers. I would highly recommend this team from San Diego family movers.
