I bought a transit last week , too big for what I need , the guy I bought it from put me onto a way of earning extra on quiet days or making cash on returns from distance jobs.
The site is called Shiply.com. I have done £210 this weekk on it and spent 3 hours of my time , organizing and carryig out the work , which equates to £600/month net profit.
Basically you bid to carry goods for people along a route that you are already travelling.
EG, I did a job in Southampton and carried a 2 seater sofa back to bournemouth for £45, Ikea were going to charge the customer £75 for the same job , I gave the customer a card , and he booked a carpet clean too!
There are all kinds of goods being transported all the time ,, if you have van space , it is easy extra cash.
