Who are transport jobs for?

Tyoon transport jobs suit different service providers — from individual entrepreneurs to larger transport and moving companies.

The service may suit you if:

  • you have a vehicle suitable for transport
  • you offer moving or transport services
  • you want to fill your driving calendar with individual jobs
  • you have spare transport capacity
  • you can help with carrying items
  • you offer loading and unloading services
  • you can transport large or specially handled items
  • you are looking for new private or business clients
  • you want to receive tasks only in your own operating area

Tyoon is not an employer or staffing agency. On the service, customers post tasks that independent service providers and companies can bid on.

Which business forms can offer transport services on Tyoon?

Tyoon can be used by service providers operating under different business forms. The service provider is responsible for their own registrations, insurance, permits, taxation and other legal obligations.

Light entrepreneur (kevytyrittäjä)

Light entrepreneurship can suit someone who wants to take on individual transport or moving help tasks without their own company. As a light entrepreneur you can find tasks on Tyoon and invoice the customer through the invoicing service you choose. Always check your invoicing service terms and any insurance and permit requirements related to transport work.

This option may suit you, for example, when:

  • you do transport work on the side
  • you have your own car or trailer
  • you help with small moves
  • you want to try offering services
  • you only take occasional jobs

Sole trader (Tmi)

A sole trader suits an independent driver or a small moving and transport service that offers work regularly. Tyoon can help you find new clients and fill free time between transport jobs.

Operating as a sole trader may suit, for example:

  • a driver working with a van
  • an entrepreneur offering moving help
  • a provider transporting furniture and appliances
  • an entrepreneur doing local cargo transport
  • someone offering loading and unloading help

Limited company (Oy)

A transport, logistics or moving company operating as a limited company can use Tyoon to find new requests and clients. The company can choose suitable tasks itself and send its own offers.

The service may suit an Oy company that has:

  • several drivers
  • one or more vans or lorries
  • its own moving staff
  • the ability to handle larger transports
  • storage services
  • transport solutions for business clients
  • spare capacity between current assignments

General or limited partnership

A general partnership or limited partnership can also register as a service provider. This may suit, for example, a small family business or a moving and transport service run jointly by several people.

What equipment suits transport jobs?

The right vehicle depends on the size and weight of the cargo, the distance and the customer’s needs.

Tasks can be carried out, for example, with:

  • a passenger car
  • an estate car
  • a trailer
  • a van
  • a light lorry
  • a lorry
  • a vehicle equipped for special transport

In your profile, describe as precisely as possible: • vehicle type • cargo space dimensions • maximum load capacity • whether a trailer is available • whether hand trucks or moving boxes are available • whether you can help with carrying • how many workers can be offered for a task • whether large or heavy items can be transported This makes it easier for the customer to assess whether your service fits their need.

Moving help and house moves

A move can involve more than transporting items from one address to another.

The customer may need help, for example, with:

  • carrying items
  • disassembling furniture
  • transporting moving boxes
  • moving appliances
  • protecting items
  • loading
  • unloading
  • temporary storage of items
  • removing old furniture

In your offer, state clearly whether the price includes only the vehicle and driver or also movers, packing materials and other moving services.

Furniture and appliance transport

A customer may need transport for a single sofa, bed, wardrobe, washing machine or other large item.

Before sending an offer, it is worth finding out:

  • the item’s dimensions and weight
  • pickup and delivery address
  • floors
  • lift availability
  • parking options
  • whether more than one carrier is needed
  • whether furniture needs to be disassembled or assembled
  • whether the item needs special protection

For especially heavy items, make sure you have enough staff and suitable equipment.

Animal transport

Safety and appropriate conditions are especially important when transporting animals.

If you offer animal transport, state in your profile:

  • which animals you can transport
  • whether the vehicle has suitable space for a transport crate
  • whether you can offer short or long transports
  • whether you have experience handling animals
  • what safety arrangements are used during transport

The service provider must ensure that animal transport complies with applicable rules and animal welfare requirements.

Instrument and fragile item transport

Pianos, grand pianos, guitars, sound equipment and other instruments may require more careful handling than usual.

Your offer should mention:

  • whether you have experience transporting fragile items
  • how the cargo is protected
  • what lifting equipment you use
  • how many carriers the task requires
  • whether disassembly and assembly are included in the price
  • whether there is insurance cover for the transported property

Do not accept a particularly demanding transport without the right skills, equipment and staff.

Loading, unloading and carrying help

Not every customer needs a transport vehicle. Sometimes the task is only loading, unloading or carrying items.

Such tasks can include, for example:

  • loading a moving van
  • carrying items into a home
  • clearing a warehouse
  • moving delivered furniture
  • carrying building materials
  • moving office furniture
  • loading and unloading event equipment

In your profile, mention whether you offer carrying help only or only as part of a transport job.

Storage services

If your company has safe storage space available, you can also offer short- or long-term storage.

The customer should be told clearly:

  • storage location
  • storage price
  • available space
  • minimum storage period
  • access to the storage
  • temperature and humidity of the space
  • security arrangements
  • insurance terms
  • which items cannot be accepted for storage

Storage terms should be agreed in writing before accepting items.

How to find transport jobs on Tyoon

1. Create a service provider profile

Register on Tyoon and add details about your transport services, equipment and operating area to your profile.

2. Browse open tasks

Customers state in the task description what needs to be transported, where items are picked up and where they are delivered.

Before sending an offer, check at least:

  • the amount of items to be transported
  • item size and weight
  • addresses
  • floors and lifts
  • schedule
  • number of carriers needed
  • possible storage need

3. Send your own offer

You can propose your own price, schedule and service package to the customer.

A good offer should state:

  • total price or hourly rate
  • vehicle type
  • number of workers
  • estimated working time
  • whether carrying and transport are included in the price
  • possible mileage, parking and waiting costs
  • insurance
  • what is not included in the service

4. Agree details with the customer

When the customer accepts your offer, agree in writing on the scope of work, price, schedule, responsibilities and payment terms.

How is the transport price formed?

The price of a transport job may be affected by:

  • driving distance
  • estimated duration of the task
  • vehicle size
  • amount and weight of cargo
  • number of carriers
  • floors and lack of a lift
  • protecting items
  • loading and unloading time
  • parking costs
  • fuel and mileage costs
  • urgency
  • evening and weekend work
  • possible storage
  • need for special equipment

Give the customer a clear offer that shows what is included in the price. Also explain in advance what additional charges may arise.

What does using Tyoon cost?

Registering as a service provider is free and there is no monthly fee on Tyoon.

You can browse tasks and decide yourself which assignments to send an offer for.

Tyoon charges the service provider a fee only on completed and finished tasks according to the current terms of use. If the customer does not choose your offer, no fee is charged.

Tips for a strong transport service profile

A good profile helps the customer quickly understand what kinds of transport jobs suit you.

Add to your profile:

  • transport services you offer
  • your operating area
  • vehicle details
  • cargo space dimensions
  • number of staff
  • details about carrying help
  • your moving and transport experience
  • photos of your vehicle and equipment
  • company details
  • languages you serve in
  • any permits and insurance
  • your availability

Reply to each task personally. A price alone without details about the vehicle, staff and service content may not give the customer enough information to decide.
