I’m coming into possession of a 17ft box truck. What are some ways I can make money with it? I’ve thought about helping people move furniture and things like that, but where would I connect with people who needed my help? I’ve also thought about maybe doing a party rental business. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Open up a safebox for prostitutes to do their business. Put a wall down the middle and therefore can have two of them working at once.

Hmm, that would probably only work somewhere like San Francisco, but those hippies would smoke in there and suffocate and then I’d get in trouble.

This is very interesting, can you elaborate on it further please. What exactly do they throw away? Perishable food? Am I even allowed to sell that on Facebook?

if you are in young and in shape, start a small moving business, with you and one other guy you can charge up to 90$ an hour and pay that nigga 20$ and hour, and with 3 guys 120$/hr and so on, it changes more or less depending on where you are at, but you should be able to make pretty good money doing it, of course you would need to spend some money on advertising but thats with most service related businesses anyway.

if you decide to turn it into a moving truck, you would want to find a way to cover up those stupid windows in the attic, so when you move stuff in the rain, peoples belongings will not get rained on.

>> No.13163899

only other things you'd need are some moving pads, like 40 of them or more, a hand truck or 2, and 2 4wheel dollies just starting off, cost you somewhere around 500$ for all that shit. a nice little decal on the truck and youre g2g

if you needed more than you already had, for tools, like a appliance dolly, you rent them from uhaul.

I have a friend who did this and he told me the same things. Thank you for your answers.
>>13164100
Ok, thanks. I assumed a lot of furniture stores had their own delivery systems already in place, but it’s worth a shot.
>>13164091
That’s interesting, but I’m afraid I would get stuck with a bunch of inventory since I have no idea which are in demand and I assume they could just go themselves to Walmart for common ones.
