Need some ideas to work with  |
|
Ok Ladies and Gentlemen...I need some help with this...I am looking for a way to make some extra money. I have a Chevy Blazer and a 6x12 utility trailer that I can use to haul things for people. Do you have any ideas about what I can do to make some money with my trailer, and how do I go about getting customers? I think that is my main question here. How do I get some cheap advertising to keep my business going. I don't really have any money to start this up. Help me out here guys...

1. AICIRT81 (565) | 2 years ago | Are you starting a moving service or is it a trailer like for towing cars. You could put an ad in the local paper and post the free adds at the grocery stores. Also tell all you family and friends to pass the work around. Good luck!

goldeneagle (3462) | 2 years ago | I can't haul cars, but I can handle junk, appliances, lumber, or most anything else as long as it is within the load capacity of my trailer and vehicle. My trailer capacity is about 3500 pounds and my vehicle is rated to tow 4500 I think...

2. just2crazygirlz (1014) | 2 years ago | You should make flyers to put up on bulletin boards. You could mail out postcards if you can make them on your computer at home. The stamps for postcards are cheaper than regular postage. Also put ads in your local newspaper and the surrounding area's newspapers. Tell people you off a moving service.

3. Kenorv (539) | 2 years ago | You can be a tree trimmer/landscaper and use your trailer to haul the brush and stuff away. Of course you would need tools like a chainsaw and clean up gear and stuff like that and then you'd have to travel to the dump and pay dumping fees and what not. If you don't have the equipment then I guess that's out of the question but if you do then you can charge for the labor as well as the dumping fees and enough to cover the gas for your vehicle and the wear and tear on the equipment. Then again if you were really serious about doing that then you could get a business loan.
If you don't want to do the tree trimming and landscaping you could just haul the brush away from people's yards. Sometimes branches fall out of trees during storms and while people may have the chainsaws to cut the stuff up, most people don't have the means to get rid of it.

4. GreenMoo (2629) | 2 years ago | What an excellent way of making money with tools you already own.
Think of places where people are likely to be, and hand out flyers advertising your services there - garden centre, DIY stores, furniture stores, that sort of thing.
Putting postcars up in local shops is a cheap way of getting your ad out there, and your customers should also be local. You could also try putting flyers through doors. Maybe you could target areas where people are less likely to have their own large vehicle & need additional help, like old people's complexes.
How about advertising yourself on a local online for sale board? I'm sure there's loads of people who'd love to buy a piece of furniture or whatever if they only had a way of getting it home!
Check your insurance though. It would be awful to have an accident & your insurance to be invalidated becasue you were driving for reward, or for someone to sue you because their precious cargo was damaged in transit.
