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. For in-town moves, 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 more affordable.

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 Spotswood, NJ

In Spotswood labor-only moving help typically costs between $330.14 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 $74.37 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.

Great crew. Hard working, very polite and patient. Came on time and then worked non-stop to finish off. Really took the time to pack the container to make sure I am able to fit as much as I can and not damage anything along the way.

Astra Moving did a great job for us. I called them on the day of my move and they were able to accommodate my needs. The owner, Dan, was very responsive and was very thorough in his communication. The 2 workers (Romnel and Pepe) were very professional and friendly. They worked hard to get the job done. I would highly recommend Astra Moving without reservation.
