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 convenientâbut that convenience comes at a price. For more on the difference between labor-only and local full-service moves, read below.
| Labor-Only | Local-Full Service | |
|---|---|---|
| Wathena, KS | $476.22 | $1,054.18 |
| Kansas | $476.22 | $1,054.18 |

Labor-Only Moving Costs by Move Size
As mentioned above, it costs $476.22 on average to hire moving helpers (labor-only) in Wathena, KS, with an average hourly rate of $80.56. Your final price will depend on how long your move takes.
To get a better sense of what your move might cost, you can see the average cost for different-sized moves in the table below. Learn more about HireAHelper's methodology for calculating average costs based on proprietary data from over 1 million moves.
| Home Size | Average Cost | Average # of Movers | Average # of Hours |
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | $298.61 | 2 movers | 2.1 hours |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | $343.72 | 2 movers | 2.3 hours |

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.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $$$ | $ |
| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | â | â |
| Unloading Help | â | â |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |
Compare Costs for Additional Moving Options
Our Moving Cost Calculator can help you compare and estimate costs for local or long distance moves, across Labor Only, Full Service, and Moving Container moves. You can adjust the distance of your move and home size to compare prices and help plan your budget.
Once you've used the calculator to do your research, you can compare quotes from movers that are available and ready to help near you.

Stephen and Greg were very personable. They emptied the pod in less than an hour. We also had them unload heavy totes and boxes to the basement. They did all all their work with a smile.
These guys were very efficient and did a great job of packing my POD container to maximize space and secure the items to minimize shifting. I highly recommend them!
David and Andrew were Excellent movers. Made contact the night before. Provided their EST the day of and arrived on time. Took time and care with my belongings. These guys worked hard and Unloaded 3 bdrms in 2 hours, no additional time needed. No charge for extra flight of stairs. I recommend them for any job and most definitely will use them again whenever needed. Thanks, You Guys Rock!!
They were a little late in getting here because of a job earlier that ended up taking longer than they expected. But they definitely made up for loss time. They came prepared for the job and worked very hard throughout their two hours here. They were extremely respectful of our property and for this reason, among many others, I would highly recommend them.
Chris and crew arrived right on time and worked hard and quickly for a little over two hours. They did a great job packing our 16ft pod and moving furniture around for us. Highly recommend.
We hired College Hunks Moving to help us with our heavy furniture and pack our rental truck. They were promptly on time, ready to get to work, and informed us of every plan. We were very impressed with how professional and effecient the men were. I would HIGHLY recommend this company to family and friends. We are so glad we hired them on our moving day, made it go very smoothly.
The two guys who loaded my pod were very hard workers and did a great job in a timely manner. Everything was packed in a way nothing will move as it travels. They also did the job on very short notice. Working me in when the company I had scheduled did not show. Thanks Ray-Mac for an outstanding job!
I’m so glad that I hired Leave It Moving to unload our truck. We hired them at the last minute and they came through for us and delivered exceptional service. I will definitely use them again and would recommend that you use their services!!
Movers did the job that I wanted lifting the heavy things. I recommend them to anyone that need assistance with a move. I would use them again next time.
The guys were here ahead of time and were professional and friendly! They moved my furniture in a timely and well organized manner and handled everything with care.
These guys are the absolute best movers I have ever seen! They are very professional, fast and we are astounded at how great they got everything loaded! Highly recommend! Excellent top rate movers!
Awesome!! Movers were very professional and packed our U-haul beyond my expectation! They took extreme caution with our furniture and not even a nick or a scratch on the wall in our two story town house! Thanks for the outstanding professional service! Two thumbs up and 5+ stars from this customer!

- Dedicated Customer Support: Last minute questions are normal, and our experienced and friendly team is here 7 days a week to help with anything before, during, or after your move.

HireAHelperâs platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure youâre getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? Weâll match it. That means you donât pay extra to use HireAHelperâin fact, you may save money.
All Wathena movers listed on HireAHelper are required to provide standard repair coverage, which reimburses $0.60 per pound for damaged items. Some states may have different rules, and full-value protection is only required by the federal government for moves that cross state lines.
One of the advantages of booking with HireAHelper is that every move includes our $1,000 Service Guarantee. Plus, you can upgrade your protection by adding SmartProtectionâ˘âan optional coverage for labor-only moves that offers up to $10,000 in damage coverage, with multiple tiers to choose from.
Yes, professional movers will typically disassemble and reassemble furniture as part of the moving process. However, there are certain items that movers may not be able to disassemble. Learn more about how furniture disassembly and reassembly works when you hire movers.
One set of stairs is always included in your moverâs rate when you book through HireAHelper, but additional sets of stairs may cost more. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to get a quote and indicate the number of sets of stairs that you haveâmake sure to include stairs leading to a basement if you will have any items that need to be moved into or out of it. Read more about when movers charge extra for stairs.
You should start packing at least three to four weeks before your move, but the sooner the better. If you need to downsize or organize, we recommend starting that process 6-8 weeks before your move when at all possible.
Need to move in a hurry or don’t have time to pack? HireAHelper makes it easy to add professional packing as an add-on to your move. When available, you can get packing help for just several rooms or your whole home.
