Efficient Labor Only Movers in Austin & Beyond

Q: Can you help with furniture assembly or disassembly?

We do not offer furniture disassembly or reassembly as part of our labor-only services. We will handle your items as-is, including heavy lifting and moving.

Q: How long does labor-only moving take?

The time it takes depends on the size and scope of the move. A small apartment move can take a few hours, while a larger home might take a full day. We’ll give you an estimated time frame before starting.

Q: Do I have to rent a truck separately?

Yes, labor-only services are strictly for the moving crew. You’ll need to arrange your own truck or transportation for the move, but our team will be there to do all the heavy lifting and loading/unloading.

Q: Can I hire labor-only movers for a partial move?

Absolutely! You can hire our crew to assist with specific tasks, such as moving large furniture, loading or unloading a truck, or even helping with just a few rooms in your home. We’re flexible to meet your needs.

Q: Are your movers trained and insured?

Yes, our team is fully trained, licensed, and insured. You can trust that your belongings will be handled with care and professionalism every step of the way.

What is Labor Only Moving?

Labor-only moving provides you with professional movers to help with the physical aspects of your move loading, unloading, and heavy lifting without the need for a truck. You handle the transportation, and we’ll take care of the hard work, ensuring your items are moved safely and efficiently.

Who Should Hire Labor Only Movers?

If you need extra hands for loading or unloading, we’ve got you covered. We’ll make sure your move is quick, efficient, and safe without the extra cost of a full-service move.

Labor-only moving is perfect for:
Self-movers who need an extra pair of hands
People with rented trucks or self-storage units
Families or individuals moving short distances
Those who only need help loading or unloading
Small business owners needing help with inventory or office moves

					The Good: 5 Ton movers were very quick and worked very well! Both Zack and Sable were great guys. They helped me move from on apartment to another and made... read more reviews quick work of it

The Bad: A couple of my items were damaged during the move, most importantly one of my nightstands. Unfortunately they were only able to offer a quarter of the price of the nightstand as a refund.

Overall, I liked the way they worked and the thoroughness but I’d be weary of the possibility of something getting damaged and only being able to get a very small refund.
