the Cost of Day Laborers and Temporary Workers

Every spring my wife and I do the "spring cleaning" and throughly clean the inside and outside of our home. This year, to help with the hard and dirty work, we hired a temporary worker from the local temporary employment office. We chose the cheapest option, just a general laborer. The total cost of the service was $95, and I got a temporary worker for six hours. This price included all taxes. We had the worker clean gutters, pull weeds and help dig a hole for a new tree.

The service was great. I didn't plan on getting much for my money, but the worker that was sent to my house was very helpful and worked really hard. I bought him lunch, which was not included in the price, but I didn't mind because he was doing such a good job. My gutters are almost spotless, the weeds are gone and I didn't have to dig for hours by myself, so I'm very happy with the service.

If you must, call the local temp office and see what they offer at what price, but if you can ask a friend of family member that needs some extra money and hire them instead - it will be cheaper and you're actually helping someone you care about.
