About delivery & moving in Metro Manila
Delivery and moving help covers the furniture and boxes that will not fit in a private car or a ride-hailing trip: a sofa from a showroom, a fridge from a mall, a move between two condos, or boxes that must reach a storage unit. A tasker with a van, a pickup, or a motorcycle for small loads can handle most single-item deliveries. Larger moves usually need a truck and a helper team.
Start with dimensions and weight. Measure the largest item, then the doorway, stairway, and elevator it has to pass. Check whether your building has a loading area, a service elevator, or move-in and move-out rules. Many condos need a booked schedule and an admin signature, so plan the day around those rules before you pick a time.
What is included
- Pickup from a store, showroom, or another address
- Transport by van, pickup, or motorcycle, depending on the load
- Carrying items up floors, through the lobby, and into the unit
- Wrapping or padding for fragile items, if the tasker provides it
- Helper time for loading and unloading
- Placement inside the unit, when you ask for it in the booking

How booking delivery & moving works
- Step 1
Send the item list with dimensions, weight if you know it, and a photo. Include the pickup and drop-off addresses.
- Step 2
Describe access: floor number, elevator size, stairs, loading zone, and any gate or admin requirement.
- Step 3
Confirm the vehicle and the number of helpers before the day. Ask what the quote covers, such as tolls, parking, and waiting time.
- Step 4
At drop-off, check the items against the list before the driver leaves. Report damage on the spot and take a photo.
Tips for booking delivery & moving
- Measure the doorway and the elevator, not only the item. A sofa that fits the room may not fit the lift.
- Book an early slot or a weekday if you can. Metro Manila traffic adds hours, and waiting time is usually billed.
- Pack a labeled bag for the first night with chargers, medicine, toiletries, and a change of clothes.
- In the rainy season, ask for plastic wrap or tarps for furniture and boxes, and confirm who provides them.
Delivery & Moving in Metro Manila — FAQs
- How much does delivery & moving cost in Metro Manila?
- In Metro Manila, delivery & moving typically runs ₱100–₱7,000, averaging about ₱1,000. Taskly shows each tasker's hourly rate up front so there are no surprises.
- Are Taskly taskers in Metro Manila verified?
- Yes. Each tasker's government ID and NBI clearance is checked by the Taskly team before they're approved to quote. You can also see ratings and completed-task counts on each profile.
- How do I book delivery & moving in Metro Manila?
- Browse verified taskers, compare rates and reviews, pick the person you want, and book online — choose a time and pay by card. Taskly holds the payment and releases it to your tasker after the job is done.
- How do I pay, and are there fees?
- You pay by card through Stripe when you book — no cash needed. Posting and booking are free: you pay the agreed price, with no fee added at checkout.
- Which items are too large or unsafe for a tasker to move?
- Very heavy machinery, a piano, a large safe, and anything that needs a crane or special equipment should go to a specialist mover. Tell the tasker about glass tops, large tanks, and gas cylinders, which need careful handling and may not be allowed in a van. Describe every item in the booking so the right vehicle is sent.
- Who is responsible if an item breaks during the move?
- Photograph each fragile item before the move and check it again at drop-off. Report damage to the tasker on the day and write it in the booking. Use the Taskly help page to report an issue with photos. Good packing and clear labels reduce the risk more than any claim process does.
- Do I need to be home during the move?
- Yes, for the first visit and for the drop-off. Someone should be there to check the items, show the placement, and sign any building forms. If the building needs an admin or guard to sign for the move, arrange that before the day.
- Can the tasker help me pack?
- Some do, but packing takes time and is usually charged by the hour. Ask for a time estimate and whether packing materials are included. Pack breakables yourself to keep the cost down, and label each box by room.
- How do I avoid extra charges on the day?
- Confirm the access details, the number of floors, and the distance before you agree the price. Ask what happens if the load is bigger than described, and how waiting time is billed. Keep the agreed price in the booking so both sides can see it.
- Is a van better than a motorcycle for a small delivery?
- A motorcycle is cheaper and faster for one box or a small bag, but it cannot carry a chair or a mattress. A van costs more and suits bulky or fragile loads. Describe what you need to move, and the tasker can recommend the right vehicle.
