We've Been Helping People Move Their Couches For Over 17 Years
A 
Company
HireAHelper began in 2007 with just two people and one computer inside a tiny closet.
Our goal was simple: to create positive moving experiences. We wanted to make how moving companies interact with their customers way easier (and way better).
Realizing our goal took a team of superheroes who understood every single move is different, and so are the needs of every local moving business.
The History of HireAHelper
2007
HireAHelper.com launches online and accumulates 848 jobs booked in a year, all booked by two employees.
2009
Goodbye, closet! Hello, (slightly bigger) office! HireAHelper is up to 5,331 overall jobs booked, with a tiny handful of part-time (and volunteer) employees.
2011
HireAHelper drops all other labor services from their website and becomes exclusive to moving labor services. Marketing and design departments are created, and one full-time web developer is hired. (But everyone is still answering phones.) Up to 15,838 jobs booked.
2012
HireAHelper welcomes its first major partners to aid in our goal of making the moving industry better: PODS, 1-800-PACK-RAT, and today, Budget. What else are friends for?
2014
Got moving questions? We found answers. Moving101 launches, becoming the premier place for reviews and up-to-the-day, average pricing of industry leaders across the country.
2016
HireAHelper moves itself, this time into a state-of-the-art, shiny office space ... you know, the kind with big bouncy balls for chairs? That's not to mention an in-house call center that's racked up 44,470 jobs.
2018
It's time to get out on the porch! HireAHelper is acquired by the leader in home services, Porch. We begin spreading positive moving experiences to more people than ever before, nearly doubling in reach overnight. HireAHelper moves its 250,000th customer!
Today
HireAHelper is now the best reviewed moving service provider on the internet. We have over 2,000 incredible moving companies signed on as part of our mover marketplace. We've moved over 830,000 people who've all rated us an average of 4.8 out of 5 stars after more than 294,793 reviews. (Not bad for a start-up in a closet.)
If we want moving day to be fun, we've gotta lead by example.
Our in-house team made up of over 60 employees works 7 days a week to make moving easy and painless. And while we're at it, we also host a lot of bang-up company events, weekly sponsored lunches, and pull off more than a few office pranks. We're also proud that a portion of our time and revenue goes to charity work, including IJM.
