Why Hire Labor-Only Movers?

Heavy furniture and awkward items can be difficult to carry safely, especially around stairs, narrow doors, and finished surfaces. Tell us about the items and access so the crew can plan the lifting and protection needed for your job.

Plan Your Labor-Only Job

Start with the items that need the most care: large furniture, appliances, boxes on upper floors, and anything moving through a narrow doorway. Tell us where the work starts and ends, whether there are stairs or elevators, and whether you have a rental truck, trailer, or container. Those details help us understand the work before quoting it.

Need more than labor? Explore furniture moving for individual pieces, loading and unloading for rentals, or local moving when you need a full move. Request a quote with your item list and access notes.

Choose the Right Kind of Moving Help

Labor-only service is a good match when you already have the transportation covered or need items moved within one location. A full moving service is different: it includes planning transportation between addresses. Before booking, decide whether the crew is only lifting and arranging items or also needs to handle the trip. If you are renting a vehicle, confirm its pickup and return times and leave room in your schedule for loading and unloading.

Make a simple item list, then identify the pieces that cannot be stacked, the items you will carry yourself, and anything that may require extra people or a different plan. Large sectionals, appliances, safes, and fragile items should be described before the appointment. Photos of tight stairwells or turns make the access easier to evaluate.

Access Details That Affect the Job

At apartments and commercial properties, ask whether the loading area, elevator, or dock must be reserved. At a home, note the distance from the door to the vehicle and whether steps or uneven ground are involved. At a storage facility, check gate hours and whether the unit is on an upper floor. Sharing these details up front helps avoid a quote based on the wrong scope.

10 Essential Tips for Hiring Labor Only Movers

Labor only movers give you strong, trained hands without paying for a moving truck. These ten tips help Broomfield customers get the most from every hour of moving help.

1. Know exactly what you need. Loading, unloading, moving furniture between rooms or rearranging a garage all need different plans. Be specific when you book.
2. Share the truck or container details. Size, type and pickup time help us plan the crew.
3. Pack before the crew arrives. Labor only movers work fastest when every box is packed, taped and labeled.
4. Stage boxes near the door. A short carry saves time on every trip.
5. Reserve close parking. Park the truck or container as close to the entrance as possible.
6. Tell us about stairs and heavy items. Pianos, safes, treadmills and upper floors can change crew size.
7. Disconnect appliances first. Water and gas lines should be disconnected by a qualified person before the crew arrives.
8. Keep valuables separate. Documents, jewelry and medications should stay with you.
9. Have a plan for the other end. If you are unloading too, book both ends so your belongings are handled by the same crew.
10. Be ready to direct. Tell the crew where items go and what to load first. Quick decisions keep the job moving.

Popular Uses for Labor Only Movers in Broomfield

Our labor only movers handle many jobs that do not need a moving truck from us.

Rental truck moves. You rent the truck, we load it tight and safe, and you drive. We can also unload it at the other end.

Portable storage containers. We load containers in your driveway so they arrive safely, and unload them when they are delivered to your new address.

Storage units. We move items into or out of storage, stacking them so you can still reach what you need.

Moving furniture inside the home. New flooring, painting, remodels and home staging often mean moving heavy furniture between rooms or floors.

Rearranging and decluttering. Moving furniture for a new layout, carrying items to the curb for donation, or clearing out a garage or basement.

Help for estate and senior moves. Moving selected items between family members, storage and a new home.

For heavier specialty items, see our heavy item movers page.

Labor Only Movers vs. Full-Service Movers

Choosing between labor only movers and a full-service move depends on your budget, distance and how much control you want.

Labor only movers are a good fit when you are comfortable driving a rental truck, when a container company handles the long-distance transport, or when the job is moving items within the same property. You pay for crew time, and you keep control of the truck and schedule.

Full-service moving is a better fit when you do not want to drive a large truck, when the move includes packing and unpacking, or when you want one company responsible from start to finish. Our local movers bring the truck, the crew and the equipment.

Not sure which is right? Call us, describe the move and we will explain the options honestly.

What Our Labor Only Movers Bring

Even without a moving truck, our labor only movers arrive equipped to protect your belongings and your home.

• Furniture pads and moving blankets
• Stretch wrap for upholstered pieces and drawers
• Hand trucks and furniture dollies
• Basic tools for furniture disassembly and reassembly
• Straps for securing loads in trucks and containers
• Floor and doorway protection when needed

Tell us in advance if you need extra materials such as mattress bags, wardrobe boxes or packing supplies, and we can bring them along.

How Hourly Labor Only Movers Are Priced

Labor only movers are usually booked by the hour, with the number of movers based on the job. These factors affect the time needed.

Amount of belongings. A studio takes much less time than a four-bedroom home with a garage.

Access. Stairs, elevators and long walks to the truck add time to every trip.

Preparation. Packed and staged boxes load quickly. Unpacked rooms slow the crew down.

Heavy and special items. Pianos, safes and gym equipment may need more movers or special equipment.

Disassembly. Beds, desks and shelving that need to be taken apart add labor time.

We quote clearly before the job, so you know the crew size and how the time is billed.

Labor Only Movers for Rental Truck Moves

Rental truck moves are the most common job for our labor only movers. You get the savings of driving your own truck and the safety of a trained crew for the hardest part: the loading.

Choose the right truck size. A studio or one-bedroom usually fits in a small truck, a two or three-bedroom home often needs a medium to large truck, and larger homes may need the biggest truck available or two trips. Share your inventory and we can help you estimate.

Pick up the truck before the crew arrives. Rental counters can be busy on weekends and at the end of the month. Picking up early avoids paying the crew to wait.

Check the truck. Make sure the loading ramp works, the tie-down rails are in place and the cargo area is clean and dry.

Let the crew plan the load. Our labor only movers load heavy items first, build tight tiers and strap as they go. This uses every foot of space and keeps your belongings from shifting.

Drive carefully. A loaded moving truck brakes and turns differently from a car. Allow extra space, take corners slowly and watch for low clearances at gas stations and parking garages.

Book unloading too. Our crew can meet you at the new home to unload and place everything.

Moving Heavy Furniture Inside Your Home

You do not have to be moving to need moving help. Our labor only movers regularly move heavy furniture inside Broomfield homes.

New flooring and painting. Rooms need to be emptied before carpet, hardwood or paint work, and put back afterward. We protect furniture while it is out of the room.

Remodels. Kitchen and basement remodels often mean moving appliances and furniture to the garage or another room for several weeks.

New furniture deliveries. Old furniture may need to go to the basement, garage or curb before new furniture arrives.

Home staging. Before a home sale, furniture may need to be rearranged, removed or placed in storage to show the home at its best.

Room swaps. Turning a guest room into a nursery or an office into a bedroom means moving heavy beds, desks and dressers between floors.

Our crews use pads, dollies and floor protection, so your home is protected while your furniture is moved.

Labor Only Movers for Storage Units

Storage units are one of the most common places our labor only movers work. Moving into storage takes planning, because a well-packed unit holds more and makes it easy to find things later.

Choose the right unit. Storage facilities in and around Broomfield offer units from small lockers to large garages. A one-bedroom apartment usually fits in a small to medium unit, and a full house may need a large unit. Climate-controlled units are a good idea for wood furniture, electronics, photos and instruments.

Plan the layout. Our crew places large furniture along the back and sides, stacks boxes in stable columns and leaves a walkway down the middle.

Keep frequently used items in front. Seasonal decorations, sports gear and anything you may need soon should be closest to the door.

Protect furniture. Upholstered pieces and mattresses should be covered, and furniture should not sit directly against concrete walls.

Check facility rules. Some facilities have gate hours, elevator rules or limits on truck size. Tell us before move day so the crew arrives prepared.

When it is time to move out of storage, our labor only movers can unload the unit into your truck or container and deliver everything to your new home with the same care.
