The Cost of Moving Services in Las Vegas, NV

For local moving services in Las Vegas, you've got two options:

• A full-service moving company handles everything from driving to loading/unloading, and they also provide their own truck. While worth it, this level of convenience does come at a higher price.
• Labor-only moving means you take care of the truck or container while a crew of experienced movers loads and unloads your belongings. It’s a more budget-friendly option if you’re willing to handle transportation yourself.

Let's break down these costs.

The Cost of Labor-Only Movers in Las Vegas

Labor-only movers are a price-saving choice if you’re willing to rent and drive a moving truck, or arrange for a moving pod. Your final cost depends on factors like the size of your home, how much you’re moving, the distance between locations, and the number of stairs in your new place.

Expect hourly rates around $69.55 for labor-only moves. Moving on weekdays—especially Mondays—and during off-season months like May can help keep costs down.

The average moving quote for a full-service move in Vegas is around $721.18. But timing matters—a Monday in May is your best bet for saving some cash.

HireAHelper's Moving Guide for Las Vegas

Tip 1: Plan Around Vegas Heat for a Cooler Move

Las Vegas heat can make moving day exhausting, especially in the summer. Stay ahead of the high temperatures with these simple steps:

• Move early in the day. Morning hours are cooler, making heavy lifting much easier.
• Keep water on hand. Hydration is key, especially if you're loading and unloading in direct sun.
• Protect heat-sensitive items. Electronics, candles, and perishable goods can get damaged in a hot moving truck. Use insulated boxes, thermal blankets, or bubble wrap to keep your items cool, or invest in a climate-controlled truck or container.

Tip 2: Avoid Traffic Congestion

Between rush-hour backups on I-15 and weekend tourist traffic on the Strip, Vegas' roads get busy fast. Avoiding traffic congestion saves time, gas, and—most importantly—money:

• Check live road updates or use NDOT’s 511 system for lane closures and accidents.
• See if you can use the 215 Beltway instead of traveling straight through the Strip.

Tip 3: Learn Vegas’ Parking Restrictions for Large Trucks

Parking a moving truck in Las Vegas isn’t always straightforward—you may need a permit or special permission for oversized vehicles. Securing a legal spot keeps your move rolling smoothly (and your truck out of the impound lot):

• Check the city’s large vehicle rules to see if a permit is required.
• Ask your HOA about gate access or short-term truck parking rules.
