Bigbob Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 The guy at the bottom of the road a fireman uses his garage to store parcels , the big lorry reverses up the street they unload it into his garage then a fleet of small vans turn up during the week pick up parcels or drop them off , the only thing is you see a increased number of vans coming up the street to turn and leave the scheme . Is it a good idea to earn extra cash or are there pit falls ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfieldspares Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 If he's not insured with an appropriate risk notified to his insurers then if the muck hit the fan they'd likely walk away from paying on on any claim on his house insurance. It may also make him liable for business rates and, indeed, he may also be in breach of planning regulations. Plus of course if he's making an income from it and isn't declaring it to HMRC they wouldn't be at all happy. But if he's crossed all the "t"s and dotted all the "i"s the only pitfall I can see is that his activity may adversely affect your "quiet enjoyment" of the street and also the safety of children and other pedestrians and road users on that stretch of road.

figgy Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Some people make a lot of money with parcels, depends what parcels and what the contents are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walshie Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 That's more than likely Hermes the old parcelnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
