What Is Labor-Only Moving?
Here’s the simple version:
You handle transportation (truck, trailer, storage container, or POD). We handle the physical labor.
With labor-only moving you can choose:
How many movers you need
When they show up
How long you need them
What tasks you want help with
You pay for trained moving helpers, not a truck or extra services you don’t need. This is a smart choice if you want to save money while still getting professional help.

Why People Choose Labor-Only Moving in Hillsboro
Here’s what our customers say matters the most:
Big Savings Compared to Full-Service Moving
Full-service moving companies bundle the truck, driver, fuel, packing, and labor — and that adds up fast. With labor-only services, you only pay for movers’ time and expertise, often reducing costs by 30-50%.
Flexible Scheduling That Fits Your Move
Need help on a weekend? Last minute? For just a few hours? That’s exactly what labor-only moving is built for. You choose the time, and we work with your schedule.
You Stay in Control
Some people want a DIY move but dread the heavy lifting. Others need to move a few large items, like furniture or appliances — without paying more than necessary. This gives you the best of both worlds: your plan, plus professional support.
Strong, Trained Movers Ready for Anything
From fragile boxes to heavy couches and appliances, our crew uses the tools and skills needed to handle your items safely and efficiently.

F.A.Qs
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between labor-only and full-service moving?
Labor-only means you provide the truck or container, and we provide the muscle. Full-service movers bring the truck and do the whole job, but costs are higher.
Do I need to rent my own truck?
Yes. Labor-only services do not include a truck. You rent the truck, trailer, or POD, and we handle the physical work.
How much will it cost?
Each move is different, but labor-only help usually costs much less than full-service because you’re paying just for workers, not a truck or driving fees. Hourly rates vary depending on crew size and hours needed.
How many movers should I book?
For most local moves or loading/unloading jobs, 2-3 movers is common. Bigger homes or heavy items might need 3-4. Ask us and we’ll help you decide.
What if something gets damaged?
We handle your items carefully and bring padding and tools to protect them. Ask about available protection options when you book.
When should I book?
Try to book as soon as you know your moving date — especially in busy months like summer. But we also help with last-minute needs whenever possible.
Will you move heavy or awkward items like pianos?
Yes. With the right crew and tools, we can safely handle heavy items. Just let us know in advance so we send the right team.
