Hey everyone! I’m a cofounder doing business research focused on household help in Jersey City.

I’d like to hear from JC residents aged 18+ who have either needed help with tasks like cleaning, furniture assembly, organizing, or moving a few things, or offered that kind of help for pay.

- If you needed help, what did you need done, where did you look, and how did it work out?

- If you offered help, how did you find your last gig, or what got in the way?

- On either side, what made you comfortable going ahead or decide to pass?

A brief experience in the comments would help. Please leave out names, addresses, and contact details. Thanks!

TLDR, the vehicle in the video is a retrofitted Komatsu which originally had a combustion engine. It’s used to haul rocks and generated its own fuel with regenerative braking down a slope when it’s fully loaded.

This type of energy conservation method is especially useful in our very steep and hilly environment, where many of us traverse cliffs and slopes every day, especially heavy city vehicles and construction trucks.

In North Bergen, heavier vehicles like garbage trucks and fire trucks need to be equipped with specialized heat-duty braking systems to handle the township’s intense hills. This technology could turn that wasted energy into surplus voltage for an EV. Interesting concept as we move into the future and begin purchasing vehicles that will have to last for decades.

Saw this update on Canal Crossing near Garfield Ave: 508 homes, including 102 affordable units, plus retail and a new park.

Curious what people around Bergen-Lafayette would actually want in those storefronts. A grocery store, more food spots, something else?

Hoping to be moving closer to NYC for my wife’s job in February 2027 and am open to any recommendations on realtors you may have experience with. Thanks in advance

Visiting for an event in Manhattan and staying in NJ. Deciding between a few places still, but I'm confused by the google map directions by bus. It seems to be showing these lines that don't follow a road--Are they underground train lines? The time on the first screenshot, 16min seems too good to be true from Port Authority to what looks like the area near MetLife stadium.

I've visited several times before and comfortable taking the bus or train. It's just that this hotel is different than I've stayed before so just making sure what my commute will be.

Hmm no. Nobody in union city wants to look like any other town
