There are many reasons why a person may need to hire moving labor, from helping them to load or unload their moving truck on moving day, to helping them carry heavy pieces of furniture or appliances that they ca not manage to move all by themselves, to even just moving and rearranging large furniture inside the house from one room to another or just temporarily.

In your case, you require moving labor to move the furniture from your house while you install new carpet. This is a completely acceptable use of moving labor, and one that is outlined on the American Moving Labor Professionals Association website. The AMLPA recognizes that moving labor is often used for "in-home renovations that require furniture movement or storage" and that certainly applies to moving your furniture from your house temporarily to complete your new carpet installation.

To install new carpet in your home, you'll need to move all of the furniture in your house, either to a place of storage on your property like your basement or garage, or to another offsite storage facility while the work is being done on your home. Moving laborers can handle this job, and they typically charge by the hour for the work, so the cost will largely be dependent on how much furniture you are moving and what kinds of items the movers will be required to move.

To find moving labor that you can hire to assist you with moving your furniture, you can visit the Movers.com moving labor page, which is provided in conjunction with HireAHelper, a leading moving labor company. Simply fill out the form at the top of the page with your information, including your zip code and the date that you will need moving labor services, and you will be contacted shortly thereafter by moving labor in your area that can assist you and provide you with some estimates for the job.

After your flooring is complete, feel free to return to Movers.com and our moving reviews page write a review for the moving labor company you used and help future customers like yourself make an educated decision about which company to use.
