Red flags when reviewing bids
Most giggers on bidToGig are excellent. But here are signs to watch for when choosing between bids.
Extremely low price (more than 50% below other bids)
Often indicates inexperienced gigger, rushed work, or no supplies. If it sounds too good, it usually is.
No mention of supplies or equipment
Professional cleaners discuss their tools. A gigger who doesn't mention supplies may arrive empty-handed.
Refusing to communicate before the job
Scope mismatches are common in cleaning. A gigger who won't answer questions beforehand is a risk.
Profile with zero reviews
Not automatically bad, but ask for references or photos of recent work. New giggers can be great — just verify.
