Tips
- Price: a fixed price for the whole job is easiest to compare.
- Say where and when: area, dates, and whether it can be done remotely.
- Add a picture — listings with pictures get more answers.
- myservice.is never handles money: agree on how to pay, and never pay in advance to someone you have not met.
