What customers see

Large items

For houses, the City of Toronto picks up oversized items — furniture, mattresses, appliances — set out beside the garbage bin on collection day. Condo buildings have their own rules, and a full basement is still a junk-removal job.

Condos

In a condo, a renovation generally needs the board’s approval first, and some corporations require approved contractors or limit work hours — check with management before the pro is booked.

The housing here

Of the City of Toronto’s 1.16 million occupied homes in the 2021 census, 29% were built in 1960 or earlier and 58% before 1981; 47% are apartments in buildings of five or more storeys and 23% are single-detached houses.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Customers let Doyo pros into their homes. These checks are why they do.

  • 18 or older, legally able to work in Canada
  • Government photo ID and a matching selfie
  • A clear police record check
  • A smartphone with the Doyo Pro app
  • Your own tools, and transport to jobs

No provincial licence

No. Local moving and junk removal need no provincial licence. Whether a truck is included is agreed with the customer in the chat before the day.

Some trades also ask for proof of liability insurance; the application tells you if yours does. Doyo reviews your documents — usually within a couple of business days.

Payouts

How payouts work

For jobs the customer pays by card through Doyo, your earnings reach your Doyo balance when the job is completed, and payouts are sent weekly by e-transfer. Tips are yours in full. On quote jobs, the deposit and balance are held until the customer confirms the work, and a warranty holdback is released after the warranty period.
