You rent the truck, our crew does the lifting

Some folks are happy to drive the rental but do not want to throw out their back loading it. That is what load help is for. You bring the truck, POD, or container; our crew loads or unloads it fast, tight, and balanced. We never touch the steering wheel, and that is on purpose.

What the price covers

Trained movers, dollies and straps, pads and shrink wrap on request, and bed or table disassembly if you need it. We load high and tight so the load does not shift on the freeway.

How the job goes

We show up to your rental wherever it is parked, plan the load by weight and shape, and stack it so the heavy pieces anchor the front and the load locks together. Beds and tables come apart if that buys space. On unloads we reverse it and carry to the rooms you point out, then break down boxes if you want. A well-loaded 16-foot truck or POD is the difference between a dresser that arrives whole and one that arrives in pieces.

What is NOT included

We do not drive the rental, fuel it, return it, or take responsibility for the vehicle itself, and labor-only jobs do not include our truck or our cargo coverage. The container and the drive are yours. Want us to own the truck, the drive, and the insurance? Book a full move instead and we run the whole thing.

Price guidance

Labor-only load help is billed at our $139/hr two-mover rate with a two-hour minimum, which covers most single-truck loads or unloads in North County. Bigger crews are available when a deadline is tight.

Service FAQs

Questions that come up a lot with this kind of move

Do you drive the rental truck?
No. With labor-only jobs you rent and drive the truck, POD, or container, and our crew handles the loading and unloading. The vehicle and the drive stay yours.
Can you load a POD or shipping container?
Yes. PODs, U-Box, and 20-foot containers are routine. We pack them tight and balanced so your goods survive the road or the storage yard.
Why hire load help if I have the truck?
Because how a truck is packed decides whether your dresser arrives in one piece. Our crew loads tight and high so nothing slides on the I-5 grades.
Is there a minimum?
Two hours, billed hourly. Most single-truck loads or unloads in North County land inside that window.
