Lugger safety
Every Lugger is screened, background-checked, and has to keep a high rating to stay on the platform.
Plus, the Lugg team has your back, 7 days a week.
How Luggers are screened
Most jobs are a two-person crew: a driver and a helper. You’re not lifting alone, and everyone working beside you has passed the same screening you did.
Multi-step screening
Everyone is reviewed before activation: your profile and documents, your vehicle and insurance for drivers, the 125 lb lifting requirement, and onboarding before your first move.
Rated both ways
Customers rate you after every job, and you rate each slot back, including your partner, the jobs you were dispatched, and your earnings. A two-way system keeps your partner as accountable as you.
Background check for every Lugger
A background check through our screening partner is required to keep working with Lugg. It covers driving violations, impaired driving incidents, violent crime records, and other relevant factors. If you don’t pass, you don’t move with us.
Equipped crews
Luggers are screened for the strength, experience, and commitment to customer service the job takes, and drivers keep the right moving supplies and a clean truck.

How Lugg has your back
Safety runs both ways. You take care of the customer’s move, and Lugg takes care of you, from the day you sign up.
Your number stays private
Customers never see your personal phone number. Calls and texts go through a masked line in the app.
Damage Protection Guarantee
If a customer’s belongings are damaged during a move, our Damages Team investigates and works with the customer directly, so you’re not left to resolve it with them on your own.
Mileage and tolls covered
Drivers are reimbursed for qualifying zone miles at a set rate, and most required tolls are covered.
A partner you can trust
The person working beside you passed the same screening you did, and gets reviewed by customers and the Luggers they pair with, after every job.
Real support, 7 days a week
Live text support while you’re on a job, dedicated email support, and an in-app help center, for anything from a parking question to a problem customer.

FAQs - Lugg mover & driving jobs
Lugg is an on-demand moving platform that connects independent movers with local customers and businesses that need help moving or hauling big, bulky items. You pick up the slots that fit your schedule and get paid the same day.
You'll help customers move and haul heavy items: store deliveries, home and apartment moves, storage runs, labor-only jobs, junk removal, and more. You pick up the slots that fit your schedule, do the job, and get paid the same day.
Start with the form at the top of this page, then complete onboarding: upload your documents, clear a background check, and set up same-day payouts. We'll share the links to download the Lugg Mover app so you can start picking up slots once you're approved. Most movers are up and running within about a week, depending on how quickly you finish onboarding.
Yes, every mover completes a background check as part of onboarding. There's nothing to pay upfront; the cost is deducted from your future earnings, which is standard for independent contractor work. Ask the team during onboarding if you have any questions.
Drivers bring their own qualifying vehicle and moving supplies and handle the transport. Helpers work alongside the driver, keeping the customer updated and doing the lifting and loading. Both move furniture and household items on every job. Because drivers supply the vehicle and equipment, they earn a higher rate than helpers. Mileage is reimbursed for qualifying zone miles at a set rate, and most required tolls are covered; reimbursements apply to drivers only.
Yes, you can sign up as a moving helper even without a pickup, cargo van, or box truck. Helpers work the second seat on a two-person crew, so all you need is a phone and the ability to lift.
In some markets, yes, but only through specific approved rental partners, and the rental has to meet our vehicle requirements. Ask the team during onboarding which rentals are approved in your area.
Same day. You're paid every evening for that day's jobs and tips. You'll connect a debit card or bank account during onboarding so your payouts land quickly.
Yes, customers can rate their move and add a tip afterward. Tips are split evenly with your crew on a two-person job, and Lugg never takes a cut. Tips add up: some Luggers make over $1,000 a month in tips alone.
Yes, you pick up the slots that fit your week: mornings, weekends, or just a few hours. There's no minimum. Some Luggers work full-time hours; many do it as a side hustle alongside another job.
