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. 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 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 more affordable.
| Full-Service Moving | Labor-Only Moving | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $$$ | $ |
| Moving Truck | Included | You Provide |
| Loading Help | ✅ | ✅ |
| Unloading Help | ✅ | ✅ |
| Packing | Add-on | Add-on |
The Cost of Moving in Westmont, IL
In Westmont labor-only moving help typically costs between $307.56 and $639.97.

The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service

| Westmont, IL | $323.17 | $1,126.40 |
| Illinois | $408.32 | $1,085.66 |

very good experience with s&l. the crew was on time, well prepared and extremely careful. i was especially impressed with the care and expertise with which our two pods were packed. items were loaded in a thoughtful manner such that the space was efficiently used and all items were secure from shifting. i would not hesitate to recommend this company. very professional.
Logan Lift Express did an amazing job helping us move out of our apartment! They were professional, careful, efficient, and creative when our stuff did not easily fit in our moving truck. We would highly recommend them and look forward to using them again in the future.
Noah and Ryan were so helpful in moving my apartment. They showed up early, were careful with all of my stuff and moved everything out of my apartment really quickly. Couldn’t recommend them enough!
Super fast and skillfully navigated unplanned issues that came with being in a high-rise, all while ensuring they stayed in compliance with the plethora of building rules for moves. We couldn't have gotten done on time without them.
They were about 45 minutes early, which was good because they were able to get everything stacked up before the pod arrived. When the pod arrived, they were able to load it very quickly. Truthfully, I still can’t believe how fast and smoothly it went. They were polite, courteous, And really cared about our stuff.
Kind, careful, efficient - I couldn’t recommend Victor and his team more. They unloaded my 16 ft pod in under an hour at the end of a very long day and they were so friendly and positive the whole time. Moving is so stressful and I was really grateful to have such awesome guys helping us out.
They did an amazing job. We had a 16 ft truck that was filled completely . Had a huge dresser and heavy couch tons of boxes and furniture. They arrived at 4:15 and finished at like 5:45. Took less than 2 hours to unpack. They were efficient, kind, and would definitely hire again!
Great bunch of guys. Victor is very responsive. They were contracted for three hours and finished in 2 hours. So respectful and approachable. Very customer oriented and kind. I've used the company before and would definitely recommend them to anyone.
These gentlemen did an amazing job! Quick, efficient, courteous and organized. They moved our entire home with Tetris master efficiency. We hope we have the same team when we move into our home in August.
These guys were great. Friendly, fast, professional, hard working. It was a brutally hot day and they just kept moving. I’d totally use them again.
All 3 men were super efficient and worked very quickly. I got injured before we even started packing things and they assured me that I wouldn’t have to do anything and could just relax. I would definitely recommend these workers and would hire them again if needed!
They worked hard and finished quickly. They were also able to get my futon up some tight stairs in a tight space, so super appreciative of that. Would definitely use again!

Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Westmont

The short answer is that booking with HireAHelper saves you hours of work, helps you get the best price and value, and protects you and your belongings. Here are some of the key ways HireAHelper makes booking movers better:
- Vetted Movers You Can Trust: Every mover on our platform is vetted, background-checked, and held to our high standards. And if anything goes wrong, we act as your advocate to find a resolution with your mover. If we can’t find a resolution, our $1,000 Service Guarantee will cover you and your items.
- Book in Minutes, Not Hours: Contacting multiple local movers, comparing quotes, determining their availability, and researching their reputation can take hours of work. On the other hand, HireAHelper lets you easily compare the reputation of movers, instantly determine availability, see transparent pricing for each, and book online in just a few clicks—even same-day in many areas.
- 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.
- Smart, Affordable Protection Options: HireAHelper offers an easy and affordable way to protect your items during a labor-only move. Our optional SmartProtection covers up to $10,000 worth of belongings, and the lowest tier ($2,500) is only $19.
- Best Price Guarantee: All these benefits must come at a higher price, right? Wrong. HireAHelper’s platform lets you compare rates for different movers, so you can be sure you’re getting a good deal. Found a better price for the same service? We’ll match it. That means you don’t pay extra to use HireAHelper—in fact, you may save money.
While some Westmont movers may offer basic moving coverage, the federal government only mandates insurance for movers that start and end in different states. HireAHelper is committed to protecting your move by offering automatic repair protection ($.60/lb), a $1,000 damage protection guarantee, and SmartProtection™, which is our optional coverage for labor-only moves with three tiers between $2,500 and $10,000.
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 mover’s 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 have—make 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 for 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.
