What Is a Building Club?

How it works

A building club is how the neighbors in your building book home services together. One pro serving many apartments in one visit costs less per apartment than separate trips, and the club is how your building gets there, with the scheduling coordinated in one place.

Every building club has at least one organizer — a neighbor who helps coordinate service requests. You don't need to be an organizer to benefit. As a member, you can browse available services, say which ones you're interested in, and sign up for group bookings as they become available.

What you can do in your club

• See what services your building is coordinating, like AC maintenance, window cleaning, or dryer vent service
• Say which services you're interested in — it's free and commits you to nothing
• Sign up for a booking once your building has picked a pro
• Add your building's vendor requirements on the Building tab, if nobody has yet
• Invite neighbors to grow your club — filling your pro's day is the best rate the building can get

What happens after a club starts

Kindo doesn't start looking for vendors on its own until enough neighbors want the same service. Any member can also open bidding sooner (see How to Open Bidding on a Service).

Nobody pays anything unless they sign up for a booking, and even then a card is charged only when the pro confirms the booking.

Who runs the club?

Your building club is run by your neighbors, for your neighbors. Organizers are neighbors who volunteer to coordinate — they're not Kindo employees. Kindo runs the service, collects and routes the insurance paperwork, and collects payment on the vendor's behalf. Your organizer handles the building-specific decisions.
