Pick the pocket that matches your to-do list
Each category below is a real booking type, not a marketing label. Read what the visit includes, who it suits, and what to have ready before you post. If two categories look close, choose the broader one and describe the job — your Tasker confirms scope before starting work.
Assembly
Furniture assembly
The gateway task for most first-time customers. Flat-pack wardrobes, bed frames, desks, cribs, and outdoor sets, assembled on site by a Tasker who has built that model before. You supply the boxes and the manual if you kept it. Most single pieces take one to two hours, and a Tasker can usually handle several items in one visit. Book this if the instructions have been sitting on your floor for a week.
What to have ready: the sealed boxes, the manual, and a clear floor area roughly the footprint of the finished piece.
See assembly and mountingTV mounting and wall installation
Mounting covers TVs, cabinets, shelves, curtain rods, mirrors, and lights. The job is part measuring, part finding studs, part cable tidying, and it goes fast when someone has the right drill and level. Tell your Tasker the wall type, drywall or brick, and the TV size when you post. Renters should note whether the building requires anything specific before holes go in. This category pairs naturally with assembly in a single visit.
Mounting and installation detailsSmall handyman repairs
Sticking doors, running toilets, leaky faucets, cracked caulk, loose railings, patched drywall, and shelves that never went up straight. A handyman handles the small stuff a general contractor will not schedule. This is hourly work in most cases, and it pays to batch several fixes into one visit. Describe each item when you post so your Tasker brings the right parts. Anything inside a wall or on a gas line goes to a licensed trade instead.

Cleaning
Move-in and move-out cleaning
Turnover cleaning is one of the highest-intent searches on the platform, and it makes sense: a lease deadline does not negotiate. A move-out clean targets the surfaces a landlord inspects, from inside the oven to baseboards and blinds. A move-in clean handles whatever the last tenant left behind. Book it as a one-time job, or set it recurring if you want the same standard maintained. Deposit timelines are the usual reason people book this on short notice.
Cleaning
Deep cleaning and recurring house cleaning
A deep clean goes after buildup rather than weekly upkeep: grout, vents, behind appliances, inside cabinets. One visit often resets a home, after which a recurring booking at two or four week intervals keeps it there. Recurring costs less per visit and keeps the same Tasker when possible, which matters because they learn your preferences. Pause or cancel between visits without penalty. Most people start with one deep clean and decide afterward.
Cleaning and home organizationHome organization and decluttering
Closets, pantries, garages, kids’ rooms, and the paper pile that has been growing since last spring. An organizer works alongside you rather than deciding for you, sorting into keep, donate, and toss. This is a good task to split across two visits if the space is large. You will want bins or labels on hand for the second session. The result holds up better when the system matches how you actually live.
Help moving and heavy lifting
Light moving labor covers the parts a moving company overcharges for: carrying boxes, loading a truck, getting a couch down three flights. It suits studio and one-bedroom moves, storage runs, and furniture rearranging. You can book one Tasker or two for heavier loads. Truck-assisted help is available where a Tasker has vehicle access. Tell us about stairs, elevators, and narrow doorways when you post, since those change the time estimate.
If it assembles, mounts, cleans, moves, or gets repaired, it belongs here.
TaskNest Hub is a marketplace, so the person arriving is a Tasker who set their own rate and the person booking is you. That shapes what you see on every listing: an hourly or fixed price, a rating built from completed jobs, written reviews, and a calendar that shows real availability. Compare a few Taskers before you commit. The category you choose only sets the kind of work — the price and the time come from the individual Tasker you pick.
One rule holds across every category: if the work needs a permit, a license, or a gas line, it is out of scope here, and we will say so before you book rather than after.
Mounting, installation, and setup
Beyond TVs, this covers curtain hardware, blinds, floating shelves, ceiling fans (where local rules allow), smart doorbells, and furniture that needs anchoring to a wall. Setup tasks like a home office or a nursery fit here too. The category sits between DIY and full professional work, which is exactly the gap most households have. A single visit often clears several mounting jobs at once.
Mounting and setup
What a typical mounting visit looks like
Your Tasker arrives with a drill, a level, a stud finder, and a small set of anchors. They confirm placement with you, mark the wall, check for wiring and studs, drill, mount, level the piece, and tidy the cables where the job calls for it. Tell them the wall type and the weight of what is going up when you post, and mention anything already on that wall. Renters should check the building’s rules on wall anchors before the visit.
Yard and outdoor tasks
Seasonal work that piles up: leaf clearing, furniture assembly on a patio, pressure washing, gutter clearing from the ground, and hauling yard waste to the curb. Availability depends on the season and your metro, so post a few days ahead during peak spring and fall. Combine several outdoor jobs into one booking to make the visit worth it.
Errands and delivery help
Picking up a marketplace purchase, dropping donations, waiting for a delivery window, or moving boxes between two addresses in the same city. These tasks are usually short and priced by the hour. They suit people without a car or anyone who cannot leave work mid-day. Give clear addresses and a time window when you post.
Choosing well
How to pick the right category
Match the job to the outcome, not the label. If the result is something assembled, mounted, cleaned, moved, or repaired, one of the categories above covers it. If the work needs a permit, a license, or a gas line, it is out of scope and we will say so. When two categories seem to fit, choose the broader one and describe the job in detail. Your Tasker will confirm the scope before starting.
Write a useful post
-
1
Name the outcome, not the product. “Assemble a wardrobe” tells a Tasker more than the brand name alone.
-
2
Add the conditions that change the time: stairs, an elevator, a brick wall, or a parking situation.
-
3
List every small item you want handled in the same visit so the quote covers all of it at once.
Your first booking
What most first bookings look like
A single furniture item, a TV mount, or one deep clean. Short jobs, clear outcomes, and a fast way to test how the platform works for you. Once you have a Tasker you like, batching several small jobs into one visit is the cheapest way to use the service. Keep a running list between bookings, and you will stop noticing the backlog.
What to prepare
The details that let a Tasker quote accurately the first time.
-
Room dimensions, wall type, or the exact model name for anything being assembled or mounted.
-
A couple of photos of the space or the pile. They cut back-and-forth questions before the visit.
-
The window you are available, and whether anyone will be home to let the Tasker in.
-
Stairs, elevator access, parking, and narrow doorways — the four things that quietly change the estimate.
Questions that come up before the first booking
Short answers to the things people ask while browsing categories. If yours is not here, the FAQ page covers the rest.
Read the full FAQCan one booking cover several different jobs?
Yes, and it is usually the better value. Batch a TV mount with a shelf install, or a furniture assembly with a curtain rod, and describe each item in the same post. Your Tasker quotes the whole visit instead of charging a separate trip for each small job.
Do I need to buy the parts and materials myself?
For most categories, yes. Assembly kits, brackets, anchors, and cleaning supplies are usually yours to provide, and Taskers carry their own tools. If a part turns out to be missing mid-visit, your Tasker will tell you rather than improvise a fix you did not agree to.
How far ahead should I book?
A few days is comfortable for most categories. Outdoor and yard work tightens up during peak spring and fall, and move-out cleaning gets busy near the end of the month when leases turn over. Posting earlier widens the list of Taskers who can take the slot you want.
What happens if the job turns out bigger than expected?
You hear about it before the work continues. Your Tasker confirms the revised scope and time with you, and nothing moves forward until you agree. That is also why batching several jobs into one post works better than guessing at the total in advance.
Then and now
Keep a running list between bookings
The households that get the most out of TaskNest Hub treat it the way they treat a home repair services call: one visit, several fixes. Write down each small thing as it appears — the door that sticks, the shelf that needs another anchor, the closet that stopped closing — and post the whole list when it reaches four or five items.
Where to go next
Post a task, or compare Taskers near you first
You do not have to pick a category before you can see prices. Post the job in plain language, look at the Taskers who respond with their rates and reviews, and book the one whose time and price fit. If you would rather understand the fee structure first, the pricing page walks through how rates and booking work, and the safety page explains what vetting looks like before a Tasker reaches your door.
