The Cost of Labor-Only Movers in Beaverton

If you’re okay with renting and driving a truck (or getting a moving pod) in Beaverton, labor-only moving can save some serious cash—and save you from handling heavy boxes. The pros will deal with getting all your belongings on and off your vehicle or container.

Expect to pay around $88.48 per hour, with weekends and the summer months often costing more. If you can, schedule your move on a Thursday or in April for lower rates.

Tip 1: Reserve Street Space for Your Moving Truck

Beaverton’s residential streets vary in parking rules—some areas near downtown or busy intersections may require a temporary permit for larger vehicles. Plan ahead so your movers aren’t scrambling for curb space on moving day by following these steps:

• Check the rules: Visit the City of Beaverton Parking Services to see if your street needs a permit.
• Apply early: Submit forms at least 1 week before your move date.

Tip 2: Coordinate Your Apartment Move

In Beaverton, many apartment complexes—especially those near The Round or along the MAX light rail—have shared elevators, secured entrances, and specific move-in requirements. Reach out early to learn the rules so you're prepared:

• Reserve service elevators: Call management at least 2 weeks before moving to secure a time slot.
• Confirm move-in hours with your building manager: Some buildings only allow moves during weekday mornings or midday.

Tip 3: Activate Utility Services Before Moving Day

Even if you’re only moving a few blocks in Beaverton, it’s important to make sure your water, electricity, and gas services are set up at your new place ahead of time:

• Electricity: Portland General Electric (PGE) supplies most of Beaverton—schedule online or call 1 week ahead.
• Water: Depending on your location, visit the City of Beaverton's utility portal or Tualatin Valley Water District to start or transfer service.
• Natural gas: NW Natural handles account moves on its website.
