We all know the work day can be a popular time for perusing Facebook, Twitter, or Buzzfeed. But now there’s a more productive activity people are adding to their “work-day-to-do” list: Taskrabbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent study of the rise of “on-demand tasks” found more tasks are booked at the last-minute than ever before, which led our data scientists to ask the question: when are Clients more apt to book Taskers for help with their home services?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As it turns out, more than 50% of all tasks on Taskrabbit are booked smack dab in the middle of the work day<\/strong>\u2014between the 4-hour window of 11am and 3pm <\/strong>(local times). Clients are clearly looking for a way to relieve some stress during the hectic work day, and what better way than outsourcing your tasks at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a look at these heat maps of Taskrabbit’s Top 2 markets, San Francisco<\/a> and NYC<\/a>, and you can see the trend for yourself: San Francisco’s SOMA, Financial District and Mission District areas and NYC’s UWS, Midtown, Village and Downtown neighborhoods light up with Clients booking tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
