Start a Carpool Business

Starting a carpooling business is one great way to participate in the development of your community. Some parents have full-time jobs and don’t have the time to drop and pick their children to and from school. As such, there is a need for transport provision for these children. All you need to do is write a letter to all potential clients with all the necessary details from any experience you’ve had dealing with children, insurance verification, measures set for any emergencies and so on.

Long-term Leasing

Some businesses survive by leasing vans for their transportation needs, and as a cargo van owner, you can take advantage of this. Also, a business seeking a cargo van will be better placed by leasing one long-term than buying a new one since the cash outlay is little. In addition, buying a new cargo van is taxable while leasing one is not.

Short-term Renting

Some businesses don’t have long-term transport needs and so, renting short-term is the best solution. Also, you can start a shipping business and operate on contractual terms. Such a business would operate best with other manufacturers located in Orlando or nearby cities. So, if you are a cargo van owner you can start a short-term renting business for side income.

Start a Transportation Business

As a cargo van owner, you can start a transportation business for restaurants, commercial businesses, production companies. Your cargo van business could be used for small errands for big companies or for the main transportation needs. This could be pickups and deliveries in Orlando or outside, depending on how much distance your van can cover in one trip. Optionally, you can join any freight-bidding platforms in your area to get connected with clients.
