How Earth Care Work Routing Works

1. Create your worker profile

Provide your location, skills, experience, preferred travel distance and availability.

2. Complete the required onboarding

Finish orientation and any required safety or profile steps so Earth Care can identify opportunities that match your qualifications.

3. Receive matching opportunities

When a suitable opportunity becomes available, Earth Care can route it based on your location, skills and availability.

4. Review the job details

You receive an opportunity to review information such as:

Type of work
General location
Expected labor time
Proposed pay
Requested schedule
Required tools or experience

5. Accept or decline

You decide whether the opportunity fits your skills, schedule, travel area and preferred compensation.

If you decline, the opportunity may be routed to the next available pro.

6. Accept it and claim it

Earth Care work orders are not normally sent to several pros to compete against one another at the same time. When a routed opportunity is accepted and confirmed, it can become that pro’s work order.

7. Complete the work and get paid

Workers are generally paid directly by the client according to the payment terms provided with the opportunity. Earth Care does not take a percentage from your job earnings.

Do I Need to Be a Licensed Contractor?

Not every opportunity requires a contractor’s license. Helper work, cleaning, moving assistance, furniture assembly, demolition support and many general labor projects may not require professional licensing.

Some electrical, plumbing, HVAC, structural, permitted or specialized projects may require experience, certification or licensing. Only accept work you are legally qualified and properly equipped to perform.

Can Beginners Find Work?

Some helper, moving, cleaning, assembly and general labor opportunities may be suitable for people with developing skills.

Skilled handyman and trade opportunities normally require relevant paid experience. Your profile should accurately describe what you can safely and professionally complete.

Work Without Downloading Another App

Earth Care does not require workers to download a separate job app. Opportunities, support and onboarding can be accessed through Earth Care’s existing systems.

This makes it easier for workers with limited phone storage, older devices or a preference for direct communication to participate.

Keep 100% of Your Earnings

Earth Care does not take a percentage from the amount a client pays you for completing a work order.

The client pays you directly according to the terms supplied with the opportunity, and you keep 100% of those job earnings.

Earn a $500 Completion Bonus

Eligible workers can earn a $500 completion bonus after successfully completing five qualifying jobs.

Review the current completion-bonus requirements during onboarding to understand which work orders qualify.

Frequently Asked Questions About Earth Care Day Labor Jobs

Are these employee jobs?

How much can I earn?

Earth Care work orders may pay up to $40 per service hour, while select larger projects may pay up to $1,000. Actual compensation depends on the opportunity, skills required, location, project scope and client.

Third-party opportunities may have different compensation terms.

Qualified applicants may be able to start receiving opportunities in as little as 24 hours after completing the required onboarding steps.

Yes. Review each opportunity and decide whether it matches your skills, schedule, travel area and preferred compensation.

Can I decline a job?

How far will I have to travel?

You can provide your preferred travel area. Earth Care generally attempts to match opportunities based on your location and stated travel preferences.

Do I need my own vehicle?

Reliable transportation is important for most opportunities because workers generally travel to the client’s location. Vehicle requirements may vary depending on the type of work.

Do I need tools?

You should have the ordinary tools needed for the work you accept. Assistance with approved specialty tools may be available for qualifying Earth Care work orders.

Are gas and materials reimbursed?
