Hello,
Thanks for Dave for helping register after some difficulites.
I am thinking of self employed Courier work. I will have the free use of a LWB VW van. I would like to ask members some questions please before I start so that I don’t make any costly mistakes.

I understand I need the following Insurance. Personal Liability. Goods in Transit,Hire and reward. Would any one be able to recommend a specialist firm where I can get quotes for them all or is it usual to get then seperate.

Does any one know anything about Courier Exchange and Courier Expert. I have watched some You-Tube Videos about the Exchange where BigBeardy and Peter the Van give fairly positive reviews. However I was shocked when Beardy said that along with the Exchanges £800 yearly fee I would need a float of 3-4K to get me over until the first payments come in after 2 months.

I live in the West Midlands. Does anyone have reviews about Crown Couriers Tamworth? I understand that they pay .89p per laden mile and you have to wait for 24 days for first payment is this normal.
Also can any one give any other recommentaions for companys in my Area? I will of course look in the Jobs section.
Thanks
Rob.
p.s to the administrator. This is the second time I have had to type this as the first time I used the preview and save as draft. It all disapeared as I could see any saved drafts section. Thanks.
