Terms of Service
Last updated August 2026
These terms apply to every job booked with ExtraHands Houston ("we", "us"). Booking a job, accepting an estimate, or letting us start work means you accept them.
1. What we do
We provide general labor help: moving help, lifting and loading, cleanouts, yard work, cleaning and furniture assembly. We are labor only. We do not provide a truck, transport, hauling or disposal, and we are not a licensed moving company. If a vehicle or dumpster is needed, you arrange it.
2. Availability and booking
We work Sat & Sun by booking, by appointment only. There is no same-day or emergency service. You reserve a slot in advance and we hold that slot for you.
3. Pricing
Labor is $45 per helper, per hour, with a 4-hour minimum. Time past the estimate is billed in 30-minute blocks at the same rate and is always agreed with you on site before we continue. Jobs more than 15 miles outside Houston may add a $20 travel fee, shown on the estimate.
4. Cash payment
All payments are cash, due in full when the job is finished, on site, before we leave. We do not extend credit and we do not invoice on terms. An invoice we send is a receipt or a record of an unpaid balance — not permission to pay later.
If a balance is not paid at the end of the job, it is due immediately, no further work is scheduled, and any future booking requires the full amount up front. Repeat non-payment may be referred for collection.
5. Cancellation and no-shows
Cancel or reschedule free up to 24 hours before your start time. Inside 24 hours, or if nobody is on site within 30 minutes of the start time, a $40 reserved-slot fee applies to your next booking. If you cancel after we have arrived, the 4-hour minimum is due in cash.
6. Your responsibilities
You confirm you own the items or have permission to move them, that access (parking, elevator, keys) is available at the start time, and that the site is safe. Please tell us about heavy, fragile or hazardous items in advance.
7. Limits of liability
We take care with your property, but we are not liable for pre-existing damage, for items packed by you, for damage caused by unstable, overloaded or improperly assembled items, or for indirect losses. Any claim must be reported within 48 hours of the job and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for that job.
8. Estimates
An estimate is valid until the expiration date shown on it and is based on the scope you described. If the real job is materially different, we will re-quote before starting. Accepting an estimate online records your name, the date and time, and your device information as confirmation of the booking agreement.
9. Official website
https://extrahandshouston.com is the only official website of ExtraHands Houston. Older or duplicate pages elsewhere are not maintained by us and are not valid for booking or pricing.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, Harris County.
