How it works

ReadyHands is built for immediate, short-notice and flexible work — not long recruitment processes.

If you need work completed

  1. 1Describe the work and when it is needed — now, within the hour, today, tonight, tomorrow or on a set date.
  2. 2Publish the request. Suitable people nearby are notified straight away.
  3. 3Applications arrive in real time with arrival times and short messages.
  4. 4Compare applicants and select the person you prefer.
  5. 5The assignment is confirmed and the exact address is shared with that person only.

Safety and privacy

Only the approximate area of a job is public. The exact address is released to the selected person once the assignment is confirmed. Applications and messages stay private between the two parties.
