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. 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 less expensive.

Prefer hands-off? If you’d rather skip the driving and prioritize convenience, you can book a vetted full-service moving company right through HireAHelper.

The Cost of Moving in Yelm, WA

In Yelm labor-only moving help typically costs between $340.81 and $775.75. 

If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $84.03 an hour.

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 convenient—but that convenience comes at a price.

The movers were 2 hours late but when they arrived they did a great job. I don't think I should have been charges an additional hour because I had to rent the truck for an additional day because of their late arrival. They did good but will not use again. Spent way more money than I needed to spend.

Real Advice from Yelm Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Yelm. (They’re really nice!)

"Seattle is a great city! It’s growing at a rapidly and provides many opportunities in various fields. However, it has bad traffic. Avoid planning a move during the working week during rush hours (7-9am, 3-6pm) if possible. Also, be sure to include an accurate description of the items that need to be moved. And stairs! Stairs are a huge factor in moving but are often over looked by the customer. Be sure to notify the team if there are stairs and how many flights. "
