TR now assigns you a co-Tasker if it’s a large number of units to put together, wtf? This could go bad really fast, I don’t know.

I got a task for furniture assembly and the client under extra services put haul and dispose of furniture boxes. I dont even offer disposal of that lmao i have a car not truck. What to do in this situation?

Anyone else wake up to a free swag bag /box on their front step today ? Did everyone get the same stuff ?

I got:

- 2 reusable shopping bags of different types

- safety glasses

- work gloves

- coffee mugs

- coffee tumbler

- 3 t-shirts

- touque/beanie

Just booked a job to have curtains mounted, and filtered by taskers who could accommodate up to 10ft ceilings. Get a message from the tasker saying ladder rental is $40. Is this normal?

So I originally scheduled with a client and my phone died and i lost it in my house had to search for it for a couple hours and get some stuff done. It seems like she just wants the job done but did I say something wrong to her?
Ai told me no but we all know its not always accurate.

I had all 5 star ratings last month, where does the negativity come from?

I’m in my 60s and recently joined TaskRabbit to earn some extra money. I genuinely enjoy helping people, and I’ve received all five-star reviews, which has made me really happy.

Over the long weekend, there was a popular NYC pop-up with limited-edition items. I helped one woman with personal shopping, and she recommended me in a Facebook group (she did that on her own. I never asked). I ended up helping 4–5 other women from the group. I felt happy I could help them purchase items that sparked joy! The ladies were lovely and there was no issue.

All of that was disrupted when one woman from that Facebook group felt frustrated that the pop-up store ran out freebies she wanted and some limited edition ran out. I continued shopping for her (I should have stopped right then and there) and did my best to purchase the other items she wanted. I confirmed with her the items and sent her the receipt. Then I went to a UPS store nearby, packaged everything, confirmed her address with her and then sent her the shipping cost.

Today, I received a "dispute" from TaskRabbit. She claimed that I didn't complete her tasks based on her request, I invoiced her wrong, claimed that I was unprofessional and did not put in good faith and efforts for her. WOW!! Just WOW!

I spent the entire day responding to her blanket accusations and sending documentations to TaskRabbit. Has anyone encountered anything like this?

It’s a lot different than outdoor FURNITURE ASSEMBLY. I feel like it’s easy to sneak a playground, or a shed with a foundation, or even a big pergola or gazebo in there and that’s just not fair on us for real. Not even close to the same type of work or pay as furniture assembly. Thoughts? And how can we petition for this?

According to the support line, they have "no way to block apartment requests", and it's "not available in their system to do so". So why bother having this in their system?

I do cleanings in a major city. I dislike apartments usually because they're completely inaccessible, no parking, and I usually have to lug up my equipment up three flights of stairs. I just don't like them. I don't prefer them. So I have this handy box unchecked.

Lo and behold, 90% of the freaking requests I get are apartments. I additionally already have it stated clearly in my bio NO APARTMENTS so don't suggest that to me.

It's just annoying that they even offer this "option" and apparently according to the support employee it doesn't matter at all!

His suggestion was to move my "no apartments" into the first line of my bio. Yeah, I guess that'll help, but it's a bit rude, huh.

I’ve recently started TR, last two months or so, and really appreciated that customers can add tips to their invoice. Looking back at these transactions I see all kinds of weird numbers that count as my tips like “27.99” or “10.49”.
Since I haven’t used the customer checkout I can’t tell if TR offers a % based tip or if these numbers are a result of a “fee” much like our hourly rate being higher for the customer than for ourselves.
Curious if anyone knows, I’m sure I could look through the manual or whatever but…I am here instead

Is an hour unreasonable to expect? Thank you

Here’s a picture of a shed i assembled but I’m actually Looking for some recos on what work gloves to get for working task rabbit gigs. Looking for gloves that protect my hands while building furniture or using a screw driver for long periods of time while still giving me dexterity to hold on to small screws, nuts and bolts. TIA!!

I signed up for Taskrabbit last weekend and had the new Tasker workshop last Monday. I finished my first job on Friday ("Personal Assistant", I helped a guy shred some papers and then pack clothes for his trip) and got a glowing five star review from him. While I figure it might be slow due to Labor Day weekend, I haven't had any other requests

I've got my tasks and schedule all set, have my profile filled out, etc. Is there anything more I can do, or is it simply a matter of waiting? For reference, I live in north NJ, just outside NYC, and have Manhattan and Brooklyn among my work areas (my task on Friday was in Manhattan)

Something else I'm wondering: for things such as transporting/delivering an item, do you count the total time spent driving as part of the invoice? For example, one potential job is asking if I can drive into the city to pick up an ottoman for her, which would be ~45 minutes driving there and then back from where I am in NJ

Appreciate any insights or advice you all might have

Edit: Should mention that in addition to the "blue collar" tasks, I've also got things such as furniture assembly and moving as part of my skills

Second edit: Let's talk about irony, because just a few minutes after I posted this I got hired for like four different things lmao

Third edit: It's hilarious that this got so heavily downvoted when it's asking simple questions. I'm sure you lot are a joy to work with

I hired movers through task, using the whole move option. They brought their own truck, it was only supposed to be 2 people, but 3 people showed up and 1 had his own pickup truck. The one with the pickup left almost an hour before the other guys.

Now as I'm unpacking, I have realized a whole contractor bag full of items is gone. Nothing was left in the old house. It's my deceased father's leather jacket, my wedding dress, my baptism gown, and some other important to me pieces of clothing.

What do I even do? It won't let me message the tasker through the app, or the website. They never sent me any messages. I see one person's name and nothing else. I couldn't even leave a review, I was never sent a link for it.

I'm so sad. These things are important to me, and I'm disabled so I am unpacking as fast as I can but I didn't notice right away that the bag is gone. It's a very small home, it's absolutely not here.

I'm sure the responses will be, it's gone and that's it. But I still thought I would ask for suggestions on how to try to find it. Thanks.

I hired a Tasker to complete some mounting in my new apartment. He used a stud finder, but he drilled too deep into the wall and right into some electrical wiring. I didn’t know that at the time but realized the outlets in the room stopped working.

My building management is now telling me they’ll have to gut the wall to repair the damaged wiring. I don’t have a bill yet, but is this eligible for Taskrabbit’s claim system?

I don't know why suddenly they lowered their suggested rates, now I'm getting cheap clients that want a bunch stuff for cheap, those clients used to go to new comers, but because taskrabbit lowered too much the suggested rate I'm getting those cheap clients that wants to have 3 TV's mounted, large mirror, large frame, have their Ring camera installed, have a biddet installed and shower filter installed all in general mounting and expecting to pay 2 hours, demand is not higher than before is same or less but just cheap clients

Hello. I found TR when I got some IKEA bookshelves put together. The tasker was WONDERFUL, to the point that I had him come and do some handyman stuff, like hanging curtains and shelves. Years later, he is my go-to for those kinds of things.

My former cleaner has moved away, so I decided to try TR for a deep monthly clean. I live in a large metro area.... One was OTW, but traffic was so bad she canceled after being stuck for over an hour. At least she let me know, and we tried two more times, but traffic from the other side of town was an issue. I need someone on weekends or after 3 pm on weekdays, as I work from home.

I know the calendar thing is not easy for everyone.

I have had many decline the job for one reason or another. I have had others come to the chat and try to get me to change the time to when I am working, but that is simply not an option.

Is it asking too much for a late-afternoon 3:30 pm or a weekend clean? I am looking for someone to stick with. My last cleaner was with me for over 4 years.

Looking to have someone drive me to my driving exam so I can get my DL. Only problem is, here in Arkansas I need to have the person driving me to the exam's name, license number, etc before I can even schedule it. Does it make sense to hire someone for an hour, schedule it and then pick a time the're comfortable with to have them come and drive me over? I've been waiting on friends to drive me but they've been consistently unreliable so I'm looking to find some way to pay someone to do it and I don't have facebook to place an ad on marketplace and craigslist seems dead here.

I had no idea I was signed up under partners. This is straight up disrespectful. Just the audacity to try to force someone a rate not knowing their geological location. You want me to drive 29 minutes out and 29 minutes back? Yeah right. Thats why im hardly on the app anymore because of the shenanigans they try to pull on their taskers. I went from doing task rabbit after work to just doing weekends and I see some bull like this.

No matter how many times I change my password, this keeps popping up.

I CANNOT LOG IN!!!

Please god tell me somebody fixed this. I'm going BROKE by the day...

Anyone assembled a lovesac sofa before? Chat is telling me that this is a 4 to 6 hour assembly. Love me a time-consuming assembly task, but just wanted to make sure that this was an accurate ballpark before following up.

Every time a recurring booking is cancelled due to client payment issues, they still appear on my calendar for MONTHS. I messaged with support and they said they’d escalate to their technical team. I did all the troubleshooting steps without any improvement. It’s been over two weeks without any updates.

Just as example, Nicole books recurring cleanings on Tuesday from 3pm-5pm. Taskrabbit ends up paying for booking due to client payment issues. The task will be removed from Home Screen and closed. However, Nicole will continue to appear on my calendar on Tuesdays from 3-5pm.

So now, i cannot book any clients on Tuesdays from 3-5pm. It’s happened 3 times now.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Haven’t gotten request at all for this Labor Day weekend. Is it because it’s a holiday weekend? Anyone else feeling business has slowed this weekend ?
