📖 The Hustle
Pick up and deliver used appliances bought on Facebook Marketplace, or help install new ones. Washers, dryers, refrigerators, and stoves are heavy and awkward. Charge $50-100 per delivery. Many people buy used appliances but have no way to move them. You need a truck or trailer and a dolly. Two appliance moves per Saturday nets $150-200 for a few hours of work. Easy repeat business.
🚀 First Step
Post on Facebook Marketplace and Nextdoor offering appliance pickup and delivery, partnering with people who just bought used appliances on Marketplace.
🔑 Keys to Success
- Always bring a second person for refrigerators and front-load washers — they are dangerously heavy solo
- Learn to disconnect and reconnect basic appliances — clients will pay extra for full service
- Keep moving blankets in your vehicle at all times to prevent scratches and damage claims
