What Is Labor-Only Moving and Is It Right for You?
Labor-only moving means you handle the transportation and we handle the work.
You supply the moving truck, rental van, trailer, or container.
We provide professional movers to load, unload, lift, carry, and set things up.
This option works well if:
-
You’re renting a U-Haul or Penske truck
-
You’re using PODS or a moving container
-
You’re moving locally and driving yourself
-
You need help loading or unloading a storage unit
-
You want to save money compared to full-service moving
People often think labor-only movers are just “extra hands.”
That’s not true.
Good moving labor is about strategy, balance, protection, and experience. One bad load can cause broken furniture, damaged walls, or a shifting truck on the road.
Our job is to prevent that.

Labor-Only Moving Services We Offer in Tigard
Moving Fellows provides labor-only moving help for homes, apartments, offices, and storage units throughout Tigard, OR.
Truck Loading and Unloading
We load your truck correctly so weight stays balanced and items don’t shift in transit. When you arrive, we unload with care and place items where you want them.
PODS and Moving Container Labor
Containers have tight space. Poor loading wastes room and increases damage risk. We pack containers efficiently using pads, straps, and proven stacking methods.
Apartment and Condo Moving Labor
Stairs, elevators, tight hallways, and parking limits are common in Tigard apartments. Our movers know how to work around them without damaging walls or doors.
Furniture Disassembly and Reassembly
Beds, desks, tables, shelving, and sectionals often need to come apart. We disassemble before loading and put everything back together at delivery.
Storage Unit Loading and Unloading
Whether you’re moving items into storage or pulling them out, we help organize and stack to keep everything accessible and protected.
In-Home Moving and Furniture Rearranging
Not every move involves a truck. We help with room-to-room moves, furniture rearranging, and heavy item relocation inside your home.
Packing and Unpacking Help
Need help boxing items or unwrapping furniture after the move? We handle packing support when you need it.
Heavy Item Lifting
Safes, appliances, gym equipment, and oversized furniture require the right tools and technique. This part’s tricky, and we take it seriously.
How Our Labor-Only Moving Process Works?
Wondering how this works from start to finish? Here’s the breakdown.
Step 1: You Schedule Your Truck or Container
Rent your moving truck, trailer, or container for the date you need.
Step 2: You Book Moving Fellows
Tell us what you’re moving, where you’re loading and unloading, and how long you think it’ll take. We’ll help estimate crew size and time.
Step 3: We Load or Unload Safely
We arrive on time, protect your space, and handle all lifting, carrying, and placement.
Step 4: You Stay in Control
You direct where items go. We adjust as needed. No rushed decisions.
Most people miss this part.
Good loading saves time, space, and damage later. That’s where experience matters.
Common Mistakes People Make With Labor-Only Moves
Let’s talk about what actually causes problems.
Underestimating Time
Packing delays, staircases, or long carries add time. We help plan realistically so you’re not rushed.
Overloading One Side of the Truck
Weight imbalance leads to shifting and breakage. We load evenly and secure everything.
Skipping Furniture Protection
Blankets, wrap, and straps are not optional. They prevent scratches and broken pieces.
Using Too Few Movers
Trying to save money with one or two movers often backfires. Jobs take longer and risk injury.
People often think more movers cost more.
In reality, the right crew size usually finishes faster.
