I've used this site: http://movinghelp.emove.com/
whereby you can schedule help by the hour.

It's a place to find independent movers. Unfortunately, my experience is that I did get burned by the movers not showing up on time. Emove made it easy to refund my money and fortunately the job was much easier than I thought but I would talk to whoever you contract so that you get a feeling of confidence about their professionalism.

Oh crafty internetworkers, I have a dilemma.

My partner and I are renting a truck to move house from Raleigh to Tennessee. We're committed to loading it ourselves - not a problem. However, there is one huge piece of furniture which is a back-breaker, and I'd prefer to hire day labour on the Raleigh end for this one piece. (It won't fit out the front door, so it has to go around the back, down the stairs, then out the side yard. Quel pain.)

Does anyone know of a moving company which just rents labour by the hour? I'd say we'd need 2 people and 1 dolly for an hour. (Or possibly 3 people.) This behemoth took 5 of my friends about 45 mins to bring inside, and I think I expended all my friend-moving-karma in that one go.

Thanks,

Cheers
KJ
