Moving help in Helsinki

An extra pair of hands for the lifting, or a full crew with a van. Most moves in Finland are booked for the end of the month, so the earlier you post, the better the offers.

Helsinki is Finland's densest rental market, which means constant moves, small flats that need deep cleans, and a lot of people who need an extra pair of hands on a weekday evening.

Most Helsinki buildings inside the ring road have no lift or a very small one, so mention the floor number and lift situation when you post — it changes both the price and who offers.

Helpers most often cover these areas: Kallio, Punavuori, Töölö, Pasila, Herttoniemi, Vuosaari.

One tip for a better offer

List the heaviest three items, the floor, and whether there's a lift. That's what decides how many helpers you actually need.

How it works

1. Say what you need

Post the task for free. Describe what, where and when — Helsinki works as a location, but naming the district gets better offers.

2. Compare the offers

Nearby helpers send you their price. Check profiles, reviews and past jobs before you choose.

3. Pay when it's done

Payment runs through GigsLo and is released only once you confirm the work is finished.
