Do you want to make money assembling products from home? If YES, here are 34 good companies that will pay you to work from home assembling their products.
A very good percentage of home-based product assembling jobs online are scams. Indeed legitimate work-at-home opportunities exist, but scams are more plentiful.
After all, the economics of product manufacturing means that most companies will either assemble products in-house or contract to a factory overseas.
The fact that most product assembly jobs are scams shouldn’t deter you from seeking home-based employment. Many legitimate options exist for freelancers, contract and remote workers.
Even though what you had in mind when you started researching work at home assembly opportunities probably doesn’t exist, there are good ways to earn money assembling things. That’s especially the case if you’re creative or have handyman skills.
3 Ways You Can Make Money Working from Home for Companies
a. Work for a Company Assembling Products for Customers
First, you can work for a company assembling products for customers. You won’t be working from your home, but you will have flexibility; and if you like building things it’s a way to get paid to do it.
If you enjoy putting things together, there are jobs available for assembling things like exercise machines, bikes, grills, furniture, sports equipment, swing sets, electronics equipment, and anything else you can think of that people buy, but don’t want to build or install themselves.
b. Work at a Large Retail Store
You can also choose to work at a large retailer like Wal-Mart or Home Depot that offers assembly services, or sign up to be a home service provider for companies that offer assembly services for the products they sell. Some companies also hire workers to repair products as well as build them.
You can sign up for Amazon Home Services, list your services on other sites and apps that provide in-home assembly and repair services, post on Craigslist in the service section, respond to inquiries on NextDoor, and mention your availability to everyone you know.
c. Work as a Freelancer
Another option is to work as a freelancer or small business. If you’re interested in crafting, for example, you can sell set up an Etsy, eBay, ArtFire, or Handmade by Amazon shop.
Even though it all depends on what you’re making, there are many options for selling your goods on a third-party website or your own blog or site.
But it is advisable you view the company’s website, contact and verify all information before you agree to any business dealings.
How Much Can You Make Assembling Products from Home?
