I was skeptical using LUGG because I didn’t know if the movers would be quality. Ive always used vetted moving companies in the past for big moves. However, I just needed something heavy moved upstairs. Carey and Darryl had tons of experience, knew exactly what they were doing, and moved my heavy piece of furniture with professionalism. This is a fantastic service. I highly recommend these two gentlemen and I would definitely use the LUGG service again in the future. - Kim

Labor-only movers in Los Angeles: moving help when you just need the muscle
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 Los Angeles you can book the same day, for the jobs where you've already got the truck or you're not going anywhere at all.
Can you hire movers by the hour?
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.
What a labor-only crew does, and what it doesn't
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.
