Safety

Tools for meeting people in person: trusted contacts, check-ins and live location sharing.

In immediate danger? Call 911 first.

Hire a Neighbor isn’t an emergency service. If anyone is in danger, call 911 (or your local emergency number) first.

Meeting safely

Meet in a busy public place, ideally in daylight, for pickups and swaps.
Keep a written record of the terms. Review the payment method and any protections shown for your specific deal.
Tell someone you trust the time and place, and use a check-in.
Check profiles, reviews and verification badges before you agree.
If anything feels wrong, leave and report it.

We tell them if you miss a check-in.

Our safety team reviews every report.

Open the deal and choose “Report a safety concern”, or contact support if it isn’t about a specific deal.
