description Taskrabbit Overview
Taskrabbit is an online marketplace that connects customers with independent service providers, known as Taskers, for local, short-term work. Common categories include furniture assembly, moving assistance, cleaning, mounting, minor home repairs, delivery, and errands. Customers choose a task category, describe the work, and book an available Tasker, while the Tasker remains responsible for performing the service as an independent worker.
help Taskrabbit FAQ
How does Taskrabbit booking work?
A customer selects a service category, compares local Taskers by rates, reviews, and availability, and books through the Taskrabbit website or app. The Tasker then performs the agreed job, such as furniture assembly, cleaning, moving, or mounting.
What kinds of jobs can I hire a Tasker to do?
Common categories include IKEA furniture assembly, delivery, errands, home repairs, cleaning, and television mounting. The available categories and Taskers depend on the customer's location.
Who founded Taskrabbit?
Leah Busque founded the service in 2008, originally under the name RunMyErrand. IKEA acquired Taskrabbit in 2017, which helped strengthen its furniture-assembly offering.
How are Taskrabbit prices determined?
Taskers generally set their own hourly rates, and customers can compare those rates before booking. The final charge can also include platform-related fees, so the checkout total matters more than the advertised hourly rate alone.
