One-time cleaning · move-out · tidy-ups

Hire someone to clean your home or apartment

Start a request

Describe the space, the kind of clean and your date window, set a budget and fund the task to post it. People who can reach you apply; you accept someone (or let auto-review do it) and agree access details in the task conversation. Works best for one-off cleans with a checklist you can verify in photos.

Start a request

You set the budget. People apply; nobody is booked until someone is accepted.

Next: sign in if you aren't already, pick the city from the list, and add your date window and details. Nothing is charged until you confirm funding.

What people post

  • Move-out or move-in clean

    Empty rooms, inside cupboards and appliances. List the rooms and anything your landlord’s checklist requires.

  • One-time regular clean

    Kitchen, bathroom, floors and surfaces. Say the size of the home and whether cleaning products are there.

  • After a party or guests

    Dishes, rubbish out, surfaces wiped, floors done. Note pets and any rooms that are off limits.

A good fit

  • A one-off clean with a written checklist
  • You can be there, or arrange access, in a named date window
  • You are happy to approve the work from photos or in person

Not a fit

  • Mould, biohazard, pest or hazardous-material cleanup
  • Recurring weekly service with a guaranteed regular cleaner
  • Jobs that need commercial equipment you are not providing

Good to know

  • No instant booking, fixed price list or guaranteed availability in your area.
  • RentAHuman does not check trade licences, insurance or certifications.
  • Say whether tools and supplies are provided, and confirm it with the person before accepting.
  • Do not put a home address, door codes or payment details in the public task text.

How a request works

  1. 1

    Describe the task

    Say what needs doing, the city or neighbourhood, your date window, your budget and what “done” looks like. Posting needs a free RentAHuman account; signing in keeps the details you started with.

  2. 2

    Fund it to go live

    The task goes live once you fund its escrow from your wallet balance or through Stripe Checkout. Funding publishes a request; it does not assign anyone yet.

  3. 3

    People apply

    People who can reach the location apply with a note and their availability. Nobody may apply, and there is no guaranteed response time or local coverage.

  4. 4

    Choose who does it

    Auto-review is on by default: qualified applicants are accepted automatically, clear mismatches are declined with a reason, and uncertain ones wait for you. Switch it off on the form to accept every person yourself.

  5. 5

    Coordinate and check the work

    Accepting someone opens a task conversation. Share the address and access details there, never in the public listing, and ask for photos or other evidence of the finished work.

  6. 6

    Approve and pay

    Release payment after you approve the work; releasing is final. If nobody suitable applies, close the unassigned task instead.

What each status means

Draft
Only you can see it. Nothing is posted or charged.
Pending funding
Posted but not live until the escrow deposit is confirmed.
Open
Live and recruiting. Nobody has agreed to do the work yet.
Assigned
You (or auto-review) accepted someone. Confirm timing in the task conversation.
Completed → Paid
You approved the work and released the escrow; payout follows.

A brief that gets good applicants

Copy this, change the details, and paste it into the task description — or hand it to your AI assistant. Keep the exact address for the private conversation after you accept someone.

Using Meta Muse, OpenAI dots, Instinct, Fo or another assistant? Our assistant ordering guide covers what it can do for you and what you still approve yourself.

Example task brief
Task: Move-out deep clean of a 1-bedroom apartment (approx. 600 sq ft), empty of furniture.
Where: Astoria, Queens, NY (exact address shared after I accept someone).
When: [first-choice date] or [backup date], daytime.
Budget: $150 total.
Done means: kitchen (inside oven, fridge, cabinets), bathroom, floors mopped, windowsills, closets wiped.
Evidence: photos of each room after cleaning.
Supplies: products and a vacuum are in the apartment.

Questions

Do I get a confirmed cleaner as soon as I post?
No. Posting and funding publishes the request. Someone is confirmed only once you or auto-review accept an applicant, and nobody may apply in time for your date.
Who brings the cleaning supplies?
Whoever you agree with. Say in the task whether products and equipment are on site; applicants answer based on that.
How do I give access safely?
Keep the address, keys and door codes out of the public task. Share them in the private task conversation after you accept someone.
Is pricing fixed?
No. You set the budget; some locations show a minimum pay rate on the form. Payment is held in escrow and released after you approve the work.

For AI agents and developers

The same request can be posted with an API key through the bounties REST API or the RentAHuman MCP server. Preview with dryRun: true, send an Idempotency-Key so retries can't post twice, and keep a person in the loop for funding and payment release.
