Practical help tailored to your needs
Needs vary from person to person. Some primarily need help with grocery shopping, while others have several smaller tasks they would like to get done at the same time.
These may be things you used to do without thinking about them, but which have gradually become more demanding or difficult to manage on your own. Perhaps carrying shopping bags is difficult, getting to the shop is challenging, or collecting a parcel is inconvenient. For others, there may be small tasks at home that have been left undone because they are difficult to manage alone.
At Ekstrahjelpen, we start with what you need. Tell us which tasks you would like help with, and we will clarify what we can do.
We do not provide home nursing care or tradesperson services. This service is intended for ordinary practical tasks in and around the home.

What we can help with
Grocery shopping assistance
We offer grocery shopping assistance for food and other essential items.
You can give us a shopping list, and we can shop for you, bring the items home and carry them inside. If needed, we can also help put groceries away in the fridge, freezer or cupboards.
Grocery shopping assistance can be useful if going to the shops has become difficult, if you would prefer not to carry heavy bags, or if travelling to and from the shop is challenging.
Shopping can also be combined with other small errands where appropriate.

Errands, post and parcels
Small errands can quickly become inconvenient if getting out is difficult or you are unable to manage them yourself.
We can, for example, collect essential items, deliver small items, collect post from the letterbox, post letters, and collect or deliver small parcels.
If you have another simple errand you would like taken care of, just ask us. We can clarify in advance whether it is something we can assist with.

Small practical tasks at home
There are many small household tasks that can be difficult to manage alone.
For example, we can take out the rubbish, carry out paper, plastic and cardboard for recycling, get items from storage or cupboards, replace batteries in a smoke alarm, or change a standard light bulb.
These are not jobs that require a tradesperson, but simple tasks that may be small in themselves while still being important to get done.
If there are other small things at home that have been left undone, you are welcome to ask whether we can help.

Basic tech help
Mobile phones, TVs, PCs, apps and digital services have become a natural part of everyday life. At the same time, it is not always easy to find your way around when something does not work as expected.
We can help with common technical questions, such as finding a setting, understanding how an app works, or getting an overview of a specific function on a mobile phone, TV or PC.
We do not provide advanced IT support, but we can help with simple technical challenges that arise in everyday life.

Practical help for seniors
Many seniors want to remain as independent as possible at home, but may find that certain tasks have become more difficult than they used to be.
Practical help can then be a simple way to get support with the things that have become more demanding, without needing assistance with the rest of everyday life.
For one person, carrying shopping bags may be the challenge. For another, it may be post, rubbish, a small errand or a mobile phone that has become difficult to use.
We start with the individual’s needs and agree what should be done before the visit. The service can also be booked by a relative who would like practical assistance for a parent or another family member.
