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.

What a day to move, these people were awesome. Just got over winter storm. They kept in contact with me as they were rear ended on way here. Thank goodness they were okay. Efficient and very friendly.
Great experience and helped me out so much in a tight (literally) spot. Great communication ahead of D-Day, on time, professional, and went the extra mile to work tetris magic on a container that was a little too small sitting out in crappy winter weather, staying late to wrap up the job. I'd hire them again.
I can not say enough positive things about this crew! The communication was great, they arrived within the time frame I was told, they worked fast but were extremely respectful of our property. We have every intention of hiring them again when we need to empty our POD in the spring!
Alex and Chris did an amazing job! They emptied a 16' POD in about an hour :D They were super nice and professional, and I am so grateful for their help! Thank you!! :D
they did a great job protected the door corners with moving blankets took care to build bedroom set and moved furniture where i wanted it. they did a great job both movers are very personal. I would recommend them
Mason and crew were simply the BEST. Stellar. Very efficient, very nice, and on time. We give them our highest ranking possible. We were in a good hands.
The guys were on time, they got right to work and unloaded a 16ft box truck in 2 hours. Impressive. They even went above and beyond to get the last few heavier items out that were in the front part of that truck as time almost ran out. Tell them thanks again
This duo was very careful packing our storage unit. They pointed out things that were damaged in transit and showed how the trailer was packed so poorly it cost us 10' extra storage space. We will definitely find these two when we move to our home here in the Syracuse area. They worked the entire time and took one break less than 5 minutes. Thank you for sending them to us.
Workers were polite, efficient, and appeared to know what they were doing. Time will tell when we actually move into our house in December and we will see what kind of job they did. I hope I can do another review at that time.
I can’t say enough good things about these people. They were tired and got the job that job done quickly and efficiently. Very pleasant and helpful even on a cold winters day. Thank you harmony movers
They were very professional. They packed the Pod as tight as they could. Which gave us plenty of room for the last odds and ends. Highly recommend.
They were running late, but called and gave me notice of that. They then arrived right when they said they would over the phone. They got the loading done quickly and efficiently. I plan to use them again in the future.

One set of stairs is always included in your moverās rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more.
