FAQs — Moving in
Madison WI
It means you pay $65 for each mover, each hour. A 2-person crew for 3 hours = $390. A 3-person crew for 2 hours = $390. You only pay for what you actually use (2-hour minimum). We’ll recommend the right crew size when you get your quote. See our full rates page.
Labor-only means we provide the people — not the truck. You rent a U-Haul, Penske, or PODS container, and we handle all the loading, unloading, packing, and furniture assembly. This saves you 40–60% compared to a full-service moving company that bundles the truck into the price. Learn more about how labor-only movers work.
U-Haul on Madison’s west side is a popular option with a good supply of 10ft and 15ft trucks. Penske has locations in the Madison area as well, and PODS delivers a container to your door if you’d prefer not to drive a truck at all. Not sure what size truck you need? Here’s a guide to choosing the right moving truck size.
Madison has two major rush windows: May (end of UW spring semester) and August (UW fall move-in). Nearly every lease in Madison turns on August 15, making it the single most chaotic moving day in the city. Book at least 3 weeks early if your move falls in late July or August.
