No lead fees. You never pay to see a task or to make an offer on one.
The posted budget is the poster’s starting point. Your offer is yours.
The poster’s money is held by Taskly before you start the work.
Charged only when you complete a task. Nothing is deducted for quoting.
Payment releases when the poster confirms, or automatically 3 days after the work is done.
Open tasks are public. Filter by category and area, or let new ones find you.
Say what you would charge and how you would approach it. Quoting is free.
The poster confirms and payment releases — automatically after 3 days if they do not.
Moving companies bill by the hour and pay you a fraction of it. Tasks here state what is moving, from where to where, and what the poster has budgeted — so you price the job in front of you, including the stairs nobody mentioned on the phone.
Apartment and condo moves, single heavy items, storage runs, a van and two people for an afternoon. Posters describe the property and the floor, and the ones who mention a lift have usually thought about it. Most need a vehicle.
Oshawa is an assembly town and it shows in the housing. The blocks around downtown are pre-war worker housing built as the plant grew — small lots, narrow drives, rear lanes in places — and the north end around the university is student rental. Between them sits the ordinary post-war suburb everywhere else has.
Oshawa has been an assembly town since 1918, and the plant and the parts suppliers around it still put a large part of the working population on shifts rather than office hours. Work arranged around a night shift is ordinary here in a way it is not in Richmond Hill or Ajax, and the hours a household is actually home follow the plant rather than the clock.
The streets between the Oshawa Creek and Simcoe Street are early twentieth century: small frame and brick houses on narrow lots, some with rear lanes, most with a single-width drive and a porch onto the sidewalk. Access is the constraint there. Ten minutes north in Windfields or Taunton the same work has a three-car driveway and a garage wide enough to back into.
Ontario Tech and Durham College share a campus at the top of Simcoe Street, and the neighbourhoods around it are student rental — shared houses, several tenants to an address, and a calendar that turns over in late August and early May. Move-out and clear-out work here is seasonal in a way it is not in Richmond Hill or Vaughan.
Tasks come from Downtown Oshawa, Windfields, Lakeview, O’Neill, Samac and Eastdale. You set the area you travel to, so you only see the ones you would actually take.
Questions
The ones people in this trade actually ask before they sign up.
Taskly is new in the GTA. Fewer Taskers means your offer actually gets read instead of sitting behind two hundred others — and the people here first will hold the first reviews.
Every word of that is true, and it is the argument no big platform can copy.
