What is Labor-Only Moving Help?

Labor-only moving help means you provide the truck, storage container, or vehicle, and we provide the muscle. Our professional movers arrive on-site to assist with:

• Apartment or in-building moves

• Moving items into or out of storage units

• Rearranging items within your home or office

You choose the service—you stay in control of the move.
