2 hours of labor for the crew size you book. Most Plainfield local jobs run well past the minimum, so it rarely comes into play.

We can deliver boxes and supplies before your move at cost, or bring extras on moving day. Many Plainfield customers do their own packing and just hire us for the heavy lifting.
