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.

Help me lift furniture from a van to a bedroom in the Berkeley Hills on Tuesday 11/11. Midday, ideally 10 AM. There’s one short flight of stairs to the room on the second floor. The larger tems include: one full size mattress and one wooden chest (46” x 34” x 18”). There’s also two smaller side tables and boxes. Everything is already in a van at the destination, ready for unloading. This job probably takes 1 hour with 2 people helping.
