Right guys,this could be very big and VERY profitable!!!
I’m about to launch a new business of which I’m looking for investments to get it off the ground.
So,here is what I’m looking to achieve…
Basically with the soon to be introduction of charges on carrier bags I’m looking to break into the market of the need of these bags by agency drivers,so this is the top and bottom of it.
I will launch a new “bag for life” initiative open to all agency drivers where our company will supply all agency drivers,subject to credit checks and finance agreements with a bag for life but here is the twist-When the bag for life is looking tired we will take it back issue the agency driver with a temporary normal carrier bag whilst a team of experts will refurbish the agency drivers bag for life back to the condition it was in “as new”.
As I’m sure you can aprreciate this thing is gonna be massive and will produce a good return on any investment made due to the thousands of agency drivers throughout the UK who rely on a carrier bag to transport their hi-viz,Bluetooth headsets and safety footwear from job to job.
I have decided to call my new company Limpers,so guys get involved before this thing gets snapped up by the major investors throughout the UK and possibly the world!
Wow, just wow. I’ve been stockpiling carrier bags since the announcement and have a kitchen cupboard rammed full but they can only last so long and they’ll start falling apart after a year or so. I’ve been beside myself with worry about what I’d do when they finally run out. I could go buy one but 5p is a large part of my daily wage so its a tough choice. This will be a winner for definite. I’ll make sure to let all the other agency drivers at my spot know as well so they can finally get a good nights sleep without needing to worry anymore.
I once bought a lighter in Harrods and asked for a bag to make sure everyone knew where i shopped. The girls at the clubs back in Gloucester used to think i was minted till it ran out…
Another business idea could be the over inflated ego, a perfect gift for the employed (I’ll go anywhere boss & work for peanuts) … driver.
It comes with endless refills of hot air. Which is ideal when they can bluster all they want in RDC waiting rooms without running out of steam. It’s designed to be compact enough to fit in over blinged (don’t worry boss, I buy the spotlights) trucks, it can be customised to match the frilly curtains and floor mats …

Count me in, I can see the potential already. Could we not also extend the use of these carrier bags to full time drivers too? I mean think of the possibilities. All those pelmets, tables, kettles, boots, photos of ugly wives, ratchet straps, bedding, dream catchers, air fresheners, portable fridges…Jesus, we could make a fortune especially if we introduced a reinforced bag to accommodate all the aforementioned ■■■■.
I think the idea of re-using the plastic from carrier bags is a good idea. There are numerous benefits to those unable to limp their way into a full-time job.
A good percentage of the recycled plastic could be used to fabricate rear mud guards. These could be offered to employers that have been unfortunate to use limpers with no idea about air suspension.
Plasters. The vast majority of four eyed limpers rely on these to repair their NHS gigs that they have sat on after rooting through overhead lockers.
Seat covers. Vital to keep a drivers seat looking respectable if the unwashed temps pilot your vehicle.
Cheap biro pen. More of these from recycling are a godsend for the limpers who like to vandalise toilet cubicles.
IMO probably the best use for recycled carrier bags will be to bundle up all the junk/tat that I find in the cab that belongs to the regular driver, think of the potential …
Youll have increased vision out of the windscreen, no issues with being blamed for theft of items, as youve taken them out and dumped them in the transport office
As stated, you could also use them as temporary seat covers, so you won`t get blamed for 5th wheel grease on the seat

Please feel free to add to the list.
Head protection gear to protect us when you open the one locker which is always stuffed so much to the brim with ■■■■ mags that the entire solid lump of paper instantly falls out and renders you unconscious if you can’t get out of the way quick enough. Its a particular issue on the smaller cabs such as the DAF CF, Renault Premium, Volvo FM and the like…
In order to maximise interest and the get the word out amongst the Agency boys you ought to offer them a choice of three quarter length Lonsdale shorts and Reebok Classics as a welcome gift.
