What We Do

Muscle without the truck.

Labor only is charged per mover per hour, with a two hour minimum.

Most common

Loading your rental

U-Haul, Penske, Budget

A badly loaded truck is how things get broken. We stack it tight, heavy low, and strap it off so it arrives the way it left.

Unloading only

You drove it, we carry it

Moving things inside

No truck involved at all

Rearranging a room, getting a safe down the stairs, clearing a house for new flooring, or shifting furniture for a stager.

Why Bother

The loading is the skilled part.

Anyone can carry a box. Packing a truck so it survives the highway is the bit worth paying for.

✦

Loaded tight

A full truck packed properly does not shift. Gaps are where damage comes from, so we fill them.

✦

Pads and wrap

We bring furniture pads and shrink wrap. Tell us up front if you want them and they go on the quote.

✦

Disassembly included

Bed frames, table legs and shelving units come apart so they fit and so they travel safely.

✦

Containers too

PODS, U-Box and similar containers loaded to the door line so you are not paying for a second one.

✦

Two hour minimum

Charged per mover per hour after that, so a short job stays a short bill.

✦

No deposit

Same as all our work — nothing up front, you settle once it is done.

Common Questions

Labor only FAQs.

How much does labor only cost?

It is charged per mover per hour with a two hour minimum. Two movers is the usual crew. You will have the exact rate in writing before we turn up.

Do you bring pads and straps?

We can, and we usually recommend it. Mention it when you ask for the quote so it is priced in rather than being a surprise.

Can you load a POD or storage container?

Yes, we do these regularly. Containers reward careful loading more than trucks do, because you are paying for the space whether you use it well or not.

Will you drive my rental truck?

No. We load and unload, you drive. Insurance on a rental truck covers the person who signed for it, so it needs to be you behind the wheel.

Can you just move furniture inside my house?

Yes. Rearranging rooms, clearing for flooring or carpet, getting something heavy up or down stairs — that is a normal labor only job for us.
