Top Housekeepers related questions

A housekeeper can be responsible for a range of household tasks, from cleaning and organising, to laundry and cooking.
A housekeeper should be competent in completing basic household chores to a high standard. They should have meticulous attention to detail and be able to follow instructions.
Yes. Some household tasks may require trade specialists - this is generally beyond the skills of a housekeeper. Most housekeepers also focus on areas inside the home - not outside/garden maintenance.

Some people have a daily housekeeper, others get help in once a week, once a month, or just on special occasions to help them get caught up.

Housekeeping agencies are popular, but they don’t offer as much flexibility and control. Hiring a housekeeper directly means you can choose your preferred housekeeper, based on ratings, reviews, and skillsets.

The cost of housekeeping depends mainly on how many hours you’d like your housekeeper to work. On Airtasker, people typically spend $60-$150 on housekeeping services.

What does a housekeeping service include?

Housekeeping services can include one-off services or regular domestic tasks (daily, weekly, or fortnightly), from cleaning and cooking to even home maintenance. Your housekeeper will bring along all the products and equipment they need to clean and maintain your home - all you need to do is tell them what you need done. Here’s how they can help:


Cleaning 

The most common housekeeping service involves cleaning. This could include general cleaning, like vacuumingmoppingdusting, and bathroom cleaning. Or it might include detail cleaning tasks like couchcurtainfloorfridge, and rug cleaning. Depending on the number of tasks you’d like your housekeeper to complete, they may clean for just an hour, or up to the entire day. Your housekeeper will discuss a time that’s convenient for you, the tasks you need done, and the timeframe it should take to complete these tasks. If needed, they can bring their own cleaning supplies, like a vacuum cleaner and feather duster. 


Organising and tidying 

Many housekeepers offer professional organising services, where they help organise and tidy all areas of your home. This includes desks, filing cabinets, stationery, linen, wardrobes, toys, kitchen cupboards, garage interiors, and more. They’ll pull out all the items, organise them by category, and help you choose what you should keep, donate, or bin. They’ll also help by recommending suitable storage solutions to help you keep your home tidy for longer.


Cooking 

Some housekeepers are available to help with cooking in your home. They might prepare a few snacks, or help prep several meals ahead of time so you don’t have to worry about cooking. Your housekeeper will present menu and recipe options for you to choose from and use your ingredient and kitchen supplies to cook everything in your kitchen. Once they’re done, they’ll store the freshly cooked food (with heating instructions) and clean up any mess.


Laundry

Washing and ironing starting to pile up? Housekeepers can help by putting on loads of washing, hanging clothes, loading the dryer, folding washing, ironing, and even putting it away. They’ll check the care labels to ensure appropriate washing/drying methods are used before they start the process. With some extra help, you’ll be all caught up on the laundry in no time.


Home maintenance

Many housekeepers are skilled in basic household maintenance tasks. But if they’re unable to do the job themselves, they’ll help organise and oversee skilled contractors who can help do repairs and maintenance in and around your home.

Need to have recycle taken away

$200

Bardon QLD, Australia

21st Nov 2025

We've just moved into a house and need someone to take the recycle away including the contents of the recycle bin. The contents are mainly boxes from moving but also some bottles/general recycle. There is a steep driveway and you will not be able to drive down and get back up, so parking is at the top, the most of the time this will take is probably just the walk up and down, but as a bonus you'll get a great leg workout! =) See attached pictures for the amount of recycle and the driveway. Any questions feel free to ask. Cheers!

Nice to work with, great communication and able to complete my task with very short notice. Thank you!

General Property maintenance gardening and odd jobs

$100

Nerang QLD, Australia

18th Nov 2025

We need help with our house and garden ASAP!! We have a big house on 2 acres with a pool and tennis court, multiple gum trees and 2 chickens and in summer particularly it is a bit of a nightmare! We have loved living here but now that we want to spend a bit more time travelling, it has become a burden. Ultimately we might sell but for the moment we want to explore getting help. So, we are looking for a keen, hard working, practical someone who would be happy to do a variety of jobs including some tidying up, fixing stuff or organising someone else to do that, helping with the pool, gardening etc. Basically anything that needs doing but more when we are away! You would need to be flexible, trustworthy and practical, happy to have variable and flexible working hours (we can also be flexible) depending on our needs, the time of year, your commitments etc. This would suit someone like a local uni student, part time contractor or a retired person. Payment would be negotiated but on a casual hourly rate. Anyone interested should write a paragraph saying why it would work for you (and us) and giving 2 referees we can contact before we arrange an interview/meet up to see if it would work for us and you. Look forward to meeting anyone keen and interested.

Matt was punctual and keen to know exactly what we needed. He seems capable and competent

Help unload a 10 x 8 container to low set place

$250

Helensvale QLD 4212, Australia

17th Nov 2025

I have a container coming from Cunnamulla and its arrival time is uncertain but assumed to be between 1pm and 3pm today. The unpacking is a low set place at Helensvale and comprises of 3 bedrooms of basic furniture and some boxes. Assumming two hours work for two people and if longer will increase the fee if needs be. The only variable is the container is coming a long distance and I don't know the precise starting time so availability to start will need to be flexible - and can update you as the day goes on. Sorry for this inconenience. Photos are of the house to unpack - not a stair to be found!

I was crap and moved time three times and they were great - perfect service
