    Making a more professional start

    THANKS but seriously This is not ego, this is simple common know how and basic mid level competency. If there’s people that cannot grasp the concept of providing service for money, and running the business competently and not like a jackass from Kentucky then, they have no business having...

    Making a more professional start

    Well regardless, we're gonna have to MAKE it into a profit. There's potential for cube van deliveries when i was at penis-mart i saw it all the time, same with Safeway and probably Superstore too. Every jack and his dog wants something delivered and isn't too shy about being cheap, so that's...

    Making a more professional start

    because i intend to be 100% successful , and i don't just mean 5% or 75% i mean 100% successful. I intend to start with one van, and then roll the profits over into a second van, and hire a second driver, and then a third van and third driver, up to about 5 (vans and drivers) and then pool it...

    Making a more professional start

    I've had a few months to rethink it and i've decide to make a slightly more high quality start in the trucking business. Instead of grabbing a cheap used 2000.00 uhaul. I now have a plan to save up for and invest in a decent almost new 2015 GMC 16ft Savana Cube (Unicell) ($33,000 CDN) in full...

    I understand but let it be known that this is not an exercise in charity – this is an income acceleration exercise

    Flat rate per pallet

    well i had heard that someone say it was somewhere around 50.00 for courier service, but i'm not letting em get off easy at 50.00 perskid, especially if i have to get my truck to haul a 2000lb skid of kittylitter all the way across the city. With the rates of insurance up here, anything less...

    Flat rate per pallet

    Ah you noticed the same thing I did. I had thought a couple weeks ago, so my other plan was to get a regular cube van and have one of those Tommy Railgate’s installed on it, but that would set me back 10K . Is this generally what people do??? Or is it better to start with just a dock high truck...

    Flat rate per pallet

    I’m looking at starting a local lite-hauling/delivery service and I was wondering what a good flat rate per pallet would be? I’m not looking at getting into logistics, or cube or $$ per mile and all that b.s. just a simple flatrate –anywhere in the city. I thought of charging a flat rate of...

    Pallets in a Cube Van

    I believe most of these 12 and 16 footers are exactly 7'8'' wide (at least that's what the specs say) so that's wide enough for 2 side by side pallets (@40'' by 48''):p. i guess number of pallets depends on on whether it be 12 ft or 16 ft. the only problem would be dock height but i can see...

    Pallets in a Cube Van

    thanks i was actually referring to how many pallets a 12ft Cube Van can handle and i heard that it has the floor space for 6 x40"x48'' pallets with a maximum of 4500lbs. so basically 2 pallets of water or bleach or coke etc. A couple skids of soil or something. That's what i meant.

    Pallets in a Cube Van

    Hello I am looking at getting into the delivery business and i just have a quick question: Do Pallets and Cube Vans mix?? Or do they put it over the weight limit and what i really need is a Big Box Truck? [like a 10 ton] I used to do shipping and receiving for Wal-mart and i could have sworn i...
