Houssemeddine & Oheneba did an excellent job for us today! They demonstrated their moving expertise by unassembling the HEAVY treadmill we have and carefully moving it and reassembling it for us, all with a smile! - John
keon was awesome i have a very heavy and unique piece i needed picked up and he totally worked with me to get it done! definitely recommend keon! - Katie
These guys were absolute machines! They arrived right on time and got straight to work. I was genuinely impressed (and a little worried for their safety!) by how fast they moved. They navigated a heavy sleeper sofa around a tight L-shaped corner in record time, then zipped through several smaller items without missing a beat. Incredibly efficient—highly recommend! They were also nice & friendly. - Michelle
Michael and Emmanuel seriously went above and beyond. They both introduced themselves, advised on the setup, and went out of their way to deliver my HEAVY stainless steel table up to my condo. I’ve never had such incredible, thorough, and friendly customer service from movers. Felt more like friends delivering my table. Couldn’t ask for anything more! - Colin
Abraham and Kendy lugged a heavy, heavy large round table up a flight of stairs and maneuvered through the house for us. They arrived on time and were friendly and efficient. Great team! - Nicholas
this man that came to my house today was amazing. I initially hired somebody to help me move my peloton bike, which is very heavy by the way downstairs into my basement from my living room and when he showed up, he was on time he was courteous. He was polite. He was a professional, and he assess the situation and he did the whole thing by himself. I was completely blown away. I tried to help, but he said that he had it and that it was no problem. I really wanna leave him a tip. I should've given him cash before he left, but I didn't and you know I'm having a real hard time putting the tip on the on the app and I just wanted to know that I'm not gonna stop until I find a way to send this man some kind of tip. Thank you. - Amanda
Marvin and Earl did an outstanding job on a very demanding move. They carried a whole van’s worth of heavy items up three flights of stairs, trip after trip, without slowing down. I was wiped out just watching, but they kept at it with professionalism and great attitude. Highly recommended! - Jonathan
It was a heavy piece and there were difficult angles to navigate. They worked really hard and did some impressive maneuvering. - Patricia
We had heavy boxes of unassembled furniture that needed to be moved into our renovated basement. Lugg is a great resource when you need help with heavy items! Lamont and Emmanuel got the job done carefully and quickly! - Gwynne
Saulo & Alex brought a very heavy recliner seamlessly from the store to my home. I appreciate their effort! - Denise

Walter and Nakai were awesome. This dresser was HEAVY but they handled it with care and got it done. 10/10 would recommend. - Beth

So very polite prompt and helpful moving a very heavy couch and chair from retail and delivered to my home. Placed the items exactly where they needed to be! - Allie
Jerome and Michael M. went above-and-beyond in being extra careful moving my very fragile, very heavy and large, glass window. I couldn't have asked for more care to have been taken. They also provided excellent communication, calling when they were in route with a spot-on ETA. I would rely on Jerome and Michael M. any time I need moving help. - Jill
Strong and very nice team. Able to bring heavy furniture easily up two flights of stairs. Recommend highly. Also available last minute. - Maureen
I had an amazing experience with Erick from Lugg! He went above and beyond helping me move a very heavy Murphy bed and a chair to my cousin’s place. This wasn’t just a simple job—it required strength, patience, and serious professionalism. From the moment he arrived, he was courteous, efficient, and extremely careful with the furniture. What impressed me most was how smoothly he handled such a bulky and awkward item, all while keeping a great attitude. He made what could have been a stressful delivery feel effortless and even enjoyable. If you’re lucky enough to get him as your Lugg helper, you’re in great hands! Highly recommend! - Andrea
Olukayode & Saulo did a great job moving a large heavy sectional sofa through a tiny doorway and helping us rearrange our room with the new sofa in it. I would certainly hire them again. - Matthew
Every single thing about my situation had the potential to annoy a mover - big, heavy couch, difficult apartment entrance, and I’m on the third floor. Julio and Nestor were CHAMPS and really put 100% into a very difficult delivery. They made my day! - Jessica
The team did an outstanding job! They communicated effectively among themselves to determine the safest and most efficient method for moving a heavy table top from the first floor to the basement. They also assisted in installing the legs and carefully turned the table over, ensuring it remained undamaged throughout the process. My first time using this app and very very pleased. Thank you very much! Mona - Mona

Daniel E. and William are experts, got a heavy loveseat recliner from NoVa to MD and out of a house with many steps. Wrapped all pieces and handled with care. Thank you! - Karen

Darwin and Joshua were amazing. They arrived ahead of schedule (always a plus!). They moved my heavy furniture with extra care and attention and were very efficient. - Maryam
Rene and Jerome brought in three ridiculously heavy items from IKEA, lugging one of them up a flight of stairs. They were respectful and engaging, and I enjoyed working with them. - Mark

Labor-only moving help means movers without the truck: they come to you, do the lifting, and leave when the work's done. It covers the rental truck you can drive but can't load by yourself, the moving container sitting in the driveway, the sleeper sofa that has to get up three flights of stairs, and the furniture that has to come out before the floors get refinished and go back in once they're dry. Lugg is labor-only moving help in Alexandria you can book the same day, for the jobs where you've already got the truck or you're not going anywhere at all.
Yes, and finer than that. Lugg bills moving labor by the minute with no hourly minimum, so a 40-minute job costs 40 minutes rather than the two-to-four-hour minimum most moving companies quote. The clock starts when the crew arrives and stops when you say you're done, and if the job runs longer than you planned they can keep working at the same rate. Booking it takes a couple of taps: enter your address, then tap Labor only in the suggestions underneath, and Lugg fills that same address in as the drop-off. Because nothing travels between two addresses, there's no mileage to pay — just the vehicle's base fare and the per-minute labor rate.
Movers load and unload a rental truck, a moving container or a storage unit, carry a single heavy item to a different room — a treadmill down to the basement, a safe across the house, a mattress up a staircase — rearrange a living room before a showing, and break down and clear out tables and chairs after an event. They bring a dolly, moving blankets, stretch wrap and straps, and they can take a bed frame apart and put it back together in the room it's going in. What they won't do is pack loose things into boxes for you: dishes, books, clothes, the junk drawer. Have all of that boxed and taped before the crew arrives, because the clock's running while they wait.
