Lifting and carrying help in Turku

One item, two strong people, no van needed. A sofa up four floors, a washing machine down to the car, a piano across the room — booked by the hour.

Turku's old wooden and 1950s housing stock means a lot of one-off repair, painting, and garden jobs alongside the usual cleaning and moving work.

Parking near the centre and in Port Arthur is tight. Say up front whether there's a spot for a van — helpers price that in.

Helpers most often cover these areas: Keskusta, Kupittaa, Hirvensalo, Runosmäki, Varissuo, Nummi.

One tip for a better offer

Give the weight or model of the item, the floor, and whether there's a lift. Two helpers cover almost everything under 120 kg; heavier needs planning.
