U-Haul and PODS Loading Help in Myrtle Beach: How Labor-Only Moving Works
You rent the truck or container. We bring the muscle. Here is how truck and POD loading help works in Myrtle Beach and Horry County.
Renting a U-Haul or ordering a PODS container is the cheapest way to move, until you remember someone has to lift everything. That's where we come in. Makin Moves is a labor-only moving crew in Myrtle Beach. You handle the truck or container, and we handle the loading, unloading and heavy lifting.
What "labor-only" moving means
A full-service mover brings their own truck and charges for it, often with fuel, mileage and travel fees on top. With labor-only moving, you pay for the crew's time and nothing else. You can use any truck or container:
• U-Haul, Penske or Budget rental trucks
• PODS, U-Box, 1-800-PACK-RAT and other portable containers
• Moving trailers and your own pickup or trailer
• Storage units, including loading in and cleaning out
What our crew does
• Loading: we pad and wrap furniture, take apart beds and tables, and stack the truck tight so nothing shifts on the road.
• Unloading: we carry everything in, put furniture where you want it and reassemble beds.
• Load and unload: if you're moving within Horry County, we can do both ends the same day.
• Heavy items: pianos, safes, appliances and treadmills. See our heavy item guide.
We bring dollies, hand trucks, straps, furniture pads and basic tools at no extra cost.
How a well-packed truck saves you money
A tightly loaded truck means you may be able to rent a smaller size, and your things arrive in one piece. Our crews load heavy items and appliances first against the front wall, then dressers and boxes in tiers, with mattresses and soft items filling the gaps. Long-distance moves especially benefit, since your belongings may ride hundreds of miles before anyone opens the door.
