Unfinished work — a recent customer says they were ghosted afterward
Truck and gas charges — a recent customer was billed for truck rental and gas
Low quote, $1,000 bill — a recent customer paid $1,000 for 7 hours
Loose work out bar
What does handyman work cost in Greater Portland?
Typical your area range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Odd Jobs by Rush. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A day rate replaces the task list — usually the better deal once the list gets long.
— a recent customer says it was coming off the wall
Odd Jobs by Rush took on a move 5 minutes away plus furniture assembly for a recent Google customer, who gave two stars.
That customer says they received a low ball quote and ended up paying $1,000 for 7 hours, for a job that included assembling 2 beds and setting up a three-seater sectional. They write that he did not move more than 5% of their belongings, that one TV and 2 book shelves were left unmounted, and that they were charged for the truck rental and gas. A work out bar he mounted was coming off the wall, the customer says, and they were ghosted after asking him to finish the work they paid for.

I received a low ball quote and ended up paying $1,000 for 7 hrs to move 5 minutes away and assemble 2 beds, 2 TVs (one was left unmounted) 2 book shelves (unmounted), 1 three-seater sectional, a portable heater fireplace, a few misc items. The point is he did NOT move more than 5% of my stuff. He charged me for the truck rental and gas! He mounted a work out bar and it was coming off the wall. I was ghosted after asking him to finish the work that I paid for.
