[[File:Service.png|left]] Sims can use a [[telephone]] to call several different '''services''', which will send NPCs to perform specific tasks. In ''[[The Sims]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4]]'', they arrive on foot, while in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' and ''[[The Sims 3]]'', they have vehicles. In ''The Sims 2'', most service Sims will charge a per-visit fee in addition to their hourly rates. In ''The Sims 3'', some service Sims charge by the day, instead of by the hour. The player can ask them to hang out, which will put off the work and allow for more wide rage of social interactions to be performed on. With the exception of emergency, services can only be hired by a Sim that's at home.
