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, itâs considerably more affordable.

These hard working men were on time, careful, mindful and grateful to be of service. I appreciated how they handled my belongings. They worked fast and finished ahead of time. Well worth the fee to get the job done by professionals.
These folks were amazing workers and very pleasant to me. I can’t praise them enough or recommend them more than I’m trying to do with this post. Anytime I need anything done, these are the people to do it.
I highly recommend these guys , non stop 4 bedroom house loaded in 2 hours, some of the hardest working guys I’ve ever seen. Very courteous and respectful!! Thank you!!
The movers that I had today, were amazing. They were a little ahead of schedule very, very, very polite very respectful very helpful. I just can’t say enough about the two gentlemen and I’m sorry I do not remember their names, but I would recommend them to anybody moving they were they were just they were wonderful thank you so much
They arrived on time, were very professional and courteous. They unloaded and set up everything in an efficient manner. I will plan to use them again for any future moves.
I needed same day help and they’re ere available in less than 4-6 hrs to assist with a move. Movers had a prior job that ran over so they were a little late, but things happen and they informed me of the delay. Very nice, positive guys that got the job done in 2 hrs. Highly Recommended!!
They called about 30 minutes out, showed up early,they worked quick and hard,packed the truck carefully and correctly treated our property and things with respect ,they even had their own rope to keep the load from shifting into the back door,I am never planning to move again but if I do i would use them again. Thanks aging for a doing such A good job!
Arrived on time, went right to work, worked steadily and completed the job within the two hour service window. Scott and Brian were upbeat and friendly, and respectful of my directions for unloading and placement. A good experience.
Despite a very hot day the movers got everything done. A little longer than I expected but the heat was a factor in this. One item got left on the truck due to the fact they needed to move the truck quickly at the end. However they brought the item to me within 2 days. So relieved! I would use this company again.
They not only did an excellent job moving - not a thing was scratched or damaged - but they were so kind and compassionate in a very difficult situation. They were attentive to the needs of my grandmother even expressing concern for her becoming overwhelmed. They are A+ and we are so thankful for them!
Was over an hour late but I’m sure it was a hold up on previous job. They kept me informed and updated on their delay and New arrival time. Had good contact and updates throughout the time of booking and to arrival three weeks after reservation. Both gentlemen did a great job of loading our 16’ truck and securing the load. I would use them again for sure
We were very impressed with Them Movers. They were on time worked 6 hours without taking a lunch. They never damaged the house or our belongings. They packed our Pods top to bottom front to back with very little space left over. We would be more than willing to use them again. Thank you for a job well done!

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