Top Heavy Lifting related questions
Yes. Airtasker allows you to hire skilled local heavy movers for heavy lifting tasks of any size. Whether you need help shifting furniture, transporting appliances, or moving a fragile item, you can easily find heavy lifting help near you by using the platform. You can also negotiate for help with packing, depending on the Tasker.
In the United States, heavy lifting help (or labor-only, short-haul moves) varies based on the length of the job, the number of movers, surge fees, building access conditions (stairs, narrow hallways), and included services. For local moves or lifting tasks, hourly rates for a standard two-man crew, moving truck included, often fall in the range of $100 to $160 per hour.
On Airtasker, you can post your task, get competitive quotes from local businesses and compare price, availability and reviews to find the right fit.
Professional heavy movers use tools such as dollies, trolleys, lifting straps, sliders, and sometimes even mobile lifting machines. These help reduce strain and ensure safe handling of bulky or awkward equipment and furniture that don’t easily fit in boxes.
The 5 P’s (Plan, Position, Pick, Proceed, and Place) are guidelines for lifting safely. They help ensure you assess the load, position your body correctly, lift carefully, and set the item down safely.
Yes, many Taskers are experienced in moving heavy or bulky items up and down stairs. When posting your task, it’s helpful to mention details such as stair width, number of flights, and whether there are tight corners. This ensures you receive offers from heavy movers who have the right skills and equipment to complete the job safely.
Yes! You can find Taskers experienced in heavy lifting and moving a vending machine. They can safely disconnect, transport, and, if requested, they may also help reinstall your vending machine at its new location.

Las Vegas NV 89121, USA
May 10th 2026
thanks for the reading. We just need someone to pick up the heavy stuff that I can't help my husband move anymore and then help offload it at the storage unit about a mile away. Some of it isn't heavy, it just won't fit in his tiny useless car. But the gym set, antique jukebox, freezer, and China cabinet are definitely hefty. My motorcycle also needs to get tossed in there probably in stealth mode. She rolls freely and won't give you a hard time. I'd ride her there but the battery is as dead inside as I am. Oh! And the TVs. One's 65", the other is 55". Both flat screen dinky things, I just can't help move them safely. The piece of crap that'll probably give you the most struggle is our poorly assembled IKEA storage bed. The headboard is one piece and then there's the bottom storage thing with 4 drawers and a few side planks. We'll empty everything out first, but I'd really like to keep the panels constructed if possible. I'm not sure any amount of Xanax and spite would help me put it together. The lighter stuff is 3 cheap shelving units from Amazon and two wall-mounted nightstand things. Maybe a desk. Then the couches. Standard black leather couches. I don't even want them, I think they're the most uncomfortable things ever built. I'd personally take a torture chair from the Spanish Inquisition. But those are just life goals. Unless you want the couches. Lastly I think is my antique casket I purchased from a Herman Munster impersonator. She's got some weight to her, but she's large and in charge. Possibly full of skeletons from my closet. I can't remember anything else off the top of my noggin right now. I'm just trying to survive this situation for some reason.That being said, 1-2 guys, my husband, a 15ft truck, and about two hours. Hoping you can grab the TV boxes too, if not I'll make the husband figure it out. I don't know what day or time yet. Within the next two weeks and possibly emergency status. We're in a really weird place right now and need a new abyss

I have not done this in a long time and would like to know the hourly cost or however it is done. Also,, need a suggestion for the closest place to house this.
