Moving Company

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 Ypsilanti, MI

In Ypsilanti labor-only moving help typically costs between $387.67 and $687.19. 

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 $79.00 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.

It would have been 5 stars, but they were almost an hour late. I was notified, though. They loaded the POD expertly and moved a lot of boxes the two hours they were here. They were good enough to each get a tip.

The move today was absolutely perfect. Both. Jayuyn and Tavon Were extremely professional, courteous, and worked perfectly to complete all tasks requested. They were on time, extremely helpful, and really did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a great company to help them with any household, moving chores and needs. Thank you both so very much! Great job!

It was the hottest day of the year, and we were their third move of the day, but the three guys that helped us move in were All-Stars! They had great attitudes and worked hard, non-stop. We had to encourage them to take a water break, they were so intent on getting the job done in a timely fashion. Moving from out of state, this was a great introduction to the Detroit area!

Robert and Ken did an amazing job. Punctual, friendly, considerate of our requests, and problem solving geniuses. They got the job done in two hours and were careful and knowledgeable (couch so large it defied physics—they didn’t even blink—had it on its way first try). Thank you so very much for helping us! We will recommend to everyone AND call again if/when we move.
