The verdict

Neighbr is for small jobs: a jump-start, a couch to carry, a dog walk. You say what you need and what it's worth, neighbours nearby offer, and you pick who helps. A private chat only opens once you choose someone, and your exact address is only shared with that person. There are no fees, though that also means no payment protection, and how useful it is depends on how many neighbours use it.

  • Compare offers, ratings and prices
  • Chat opens only after you pick
  • Address hidden until you choose
  • No ads
