Dallas labor-only jobs are billed hourly with a written two-hour minimum. What you pay is the crew rate times the hours worked, quoted flat before you book. You supply the truck, container, or pod, we bring the crew and every piece of equipment they need: furniture blankets, shrink wrap, straps, dollies, floor runners, wardrobe boxes on request. Because there is no truck to buy or fuel to burn, labor-only is the cheapest way to get real movers on a job.

Pricing
How Much Do Movers Cost of Labor-Only in Dallas?
Dallas labor-only pricing uses the same hourly rate card as our full moves - you save on the truck cost, not the crew. Two-hour minimum applies to every labor-only booking. Rates below reflect the crew size we typically send for each home or job size.
Prices may be higher when a move involves:
- Multiple flights of stairs
- Long carries from the building to the truck
- Restricted freight elevator windows
- Difficult parking or alley access
- Full packing
- Specialty or unusually heavy items
- Storage between addresses
- Peak moving dates
- Additional stops
Two hour minimum on all Dallas local moves, plus travel time.
Included at no extra charge: blankets and moving pads, shrink wrap and tape, disassembly and reassembly, dollies, tools and straps, and fuel. A 2.5% fee applies to final balances paid by card.

FAQS
Labor-Only Moving Questions
How much does labor-only moving cost in Dallas?
Dallas labor-only rates use the same crew tiers as our full moves. Two movers run $160 per hour with a two-hour minimum, three movers $220 per hour, four movers $310 per hour. You provide the truck or container; we bring the crew and equipment.
What size truck can your crew load?
Any size rental - 10 foot U-Haul cargo van up to a 26 foot Penske straight truck. Our crew weighs the load and stacks it top-heavy last so nothing shifts on the drive.
Do you supply the truck?
No. Labor-only means you supply the truck, container, pod, or storage unit. We supply the two to four movers and every piece of equipment they need.
What equipment does the crew bring on a labor-only job?
Furniture blankets, shrink wrap, straps, tie-downs, four-wheel dollies, appliance dollies, floor runners, and hand tools for basic disassembly. Wardrobe boxes on request. Everything is included in the hourly rate.
Is there a minimum booking time?
Yes, two hours plus travel time. If the job finishes in under two hours you are still billed for two. Most one-bedroom loads finish inside the minimum.
Can you load a storage unit?
Yes. We load into or empty out of any Dallas storage facility - Public Storage, Extra Space, CubeSmart, Life Storage. We stack to fit the unit dimensions and label boxes by room.
Can you do unloading only?
Yes. Book unloading only if you drove the truck yourself and need help at the destination. Same hourly rate, same two-hour minimum.
Are labor-only movers insured?
Yes. Every Evolution crew carries full cargo insurance, general liability, and workers compensation - same coverage as our full moves. Certificates of insurance available at no charge for buildings that require them.
Can I book same-day labor-only in Dallas?
Sometimes. We hold a small daily rescue slot for same-day and next-day labor requests. Call to check availability - the earlier you call, the better the chance of a crew.
What will your labor-only crew not load?
Cash, jewelry, firearms, ammunition, hazardous materials (paint, propane, chemicals), plants, pets, food, and open liquids. Also anything perishable or frozen. Everything else - fair game.

About Evolution Moving Company
A Dallas Moving Company Built on Written Prices
Moving in Dallas is not the same as moving anywhere else in Texas. I-635 traffic patterns shift by the hour, downtown and Uptown high rises require a Certificate of Insurance and a reserved freight elevator, and the August heat makes an early crew start non negotiable. Our coordinators have moved every kind of Dallas household, from Uptown studios to Preston Hollow estates, Deep Ellum lofts to Highland Park family homes, and Lake Highlands bungalows to Plano corporate relocations. That kind of knowledge is not on a map. It is built one move at a time, and Evolution has been building it in Texas since 2013.

Evolution moving did a wonderful job with our move. Great communication before the move and confirmed the day before. Pricing was very reasonable and worth every penny. They maneuvered a large couch through a tight doorway. Highly recommend.

Outstanding service from Evolution Moving Company. The 5 young men who helped us move a 4-bedroom house and storage unit were amazing - extremely polite, respectful, patient, and hard-working. Wrapped every piece of furniture in blankets and plastic wrap. Would hire again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Booking, Paperwork, and Delivery Day
How do I book, and what do you need from me?
Submit the form or call, then schedule a video or in-home survey. Once you approve the written not-to-exceed quote we hold the date. One-hour local deposit, $500 per truck interstate.
Will my shipment be weighed?
Yes. Interstate shipments are weighed at a certified scale, and you can request the weigh tickets. You also have the right to observe the weighing.
What paperwork will I sign?
An estimate, an order for service, a bill of lading, and an inventory. Read the valuation section on the bill of lading before signing, and ask how owner-packed cartons and high-value items are treated.
Can you provide a certificate of insurance?
Yes, at no cost, naming your building and management company at either end. Request it when you book and it is usually issued the same business day.
What if the truck cannot reach my new street?
We run a shuttle: a smaller truck ferries the load from the trailer to your door. If access is questionable we plan the shuttle into the quote up front rather than surprising you on delivery day.
How do I track my shipment?
Your coordinator sends position updates and confirms the delivery day as the truck gets close. You are talking to the same person the entire time, not a call center queue.
What happens if something is damaged?
Claims are handled in house, not farmed out. Note it on the inventory at delivery, send photos, and your coordinator opens the claim the same day.
Do you move cars, boats, or motorcycles?
Vehicle transport is arranged through vetted partners and quoted separately on the same paperwork, so you are still dealing with one coordinator.
