The Cost of Hiring Movers in Washington, CT

On average, it costs $462.68 to hire moving helpers in Washington, CT. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Washington, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $94.01.

These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.

The Cost of Full-Service Moving

The average cost of a local full-service move in Washington, CT is $579.93, with an average hourly rate of $100.77. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.

Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

Ashton and Rodan (sp?) arrived on time and did three hours of hard work in high humidity and temps. They listened to us and understood our goals for the pack up. They were polite and understanding. Can not say enough good things about these two gentlemen and the service they provide.

Wonderful service! Our movers were time efficient, friendly, caring, and so personable. They were able to listen to our requests, work fast without complaint (even though is was pouring rain!), and had a smile on their face the entire time! Moving can be such a stressful expierence, and our movers helped remove almost all our stress.

Mike and Dan were fantastic. They were prompt and took great care with moving the furniture to the storage pod and my garage. I’m impressed. I will need them back in about 8-9 days to put the furniture back after my floors are refinished. Thank you for a great experience!

Extraordinarily professional and fast moving service. They expertly loaded our moving truck, met us at the unload site, and navigated an unload into a second story apartment. We really appreciated their help and professionalism. We will be hiring them again!

Charles, George and Buddha (Full Time Movers) were exceptional in their service and professionalism while I coordinated a move for family in another state. They took the time to communicate well and put everyone at ease with the process, and completed the packing as if it was an art. Many thanks to them for handling the job better than we could’ve hoped for. -Bill E
