    How to Use TaskRabbit for Home Help

    Hire a local helper ("Tasker") for furniture assembly, moving, cleaning, or small repairs — billed by the hour.

    1

    Download TaskRabbit

    ~15s
    Install the free TaskRabbit app from the App Store or Play Store, or go to taskrabbit.com. Sign up with your email and add a payment card.
    2

    Pick a task category

    ~15s
    Tap "New task" and pick the category — Furniture Assembly, Moving Help, Handyman, Cleaning, Yard Work, or General Help. Each category has different hourly rates.
    3

    Describe your job

    ~15s
    Write what needs to be done in plain language. Add how many hours you think it will take (most Taskers have a 1-hour minimum). Attach a photo of the item or the space.
    4

    Pick a Tasker

    ~15s
    The app shows nearby Taskers with their hourly rate, reviews, and completed jobs. Stick with Taskers who have 4.8 stars or higher and at least 50 completed jobs for reliability.
    5

    Meet, review, and tip

    ~15s
    The Tasker arrives at your chosen time. Pay through the app when the job is done — you can add a tip. Leave a review so the next customer knows what to expect.

    TaskRabbit is an app that connects you with background-checked helpers (called Taskers) who come to your home for short jobs — assembling IKEA furniture, hanging pictures, light moving, basic cleaning, or running errands.

    You see the Tasker's hourly rate and reviews before you book. Payments are handled through the app so you never pay cash directly.
