Everyone has days when there is simply too much to do and not enough time. Whether you are moving into a new apartment, hosting a party, tackling a home improvement project, or drowning in errands, hiring a person for a day can save you hours of stress and physical labor. RentAHuman makes it simple, affordable, and safe to get the help you need, exactly when you need it.
Unlike traditional temp agencies that require contracts, minimums, and advance booking, RentAHuman lets you hire someone for as little as one hour or as long as a full day. Workers set their own rates based on experience, so you get competitive pricing without agency markups. And because every worker is background-checked through Checkr and covered by our $1M liability insurance, you can trust the person who shows up at your door.
RentAHuman workers are independent contractors who take pride in their work. They bring their own tools, vehicles, and expertise. You just describe what you need, set a budget, and let us match you with the right person. Payment is held in escrow until you confirm the work is done to your satisfaction. If something goes wrong, our satisfaction guarantee has you covered.
With workers available in over 200 cities across all 50 states, same-day help is available for most tasks.
