What should I look out for when leasing a van? Any ideas or tips?
I believe they don't lease to some couriers? I'm a sole trader
I'm in a catch 22 situation.
I'm into my 3rd year working in this industry.
I have some contract work for retail delivering furniture I also cover house moves and some other ad-hoc items like engines and parts etc.
I started off with a high mile Renault traffic worth €500 with the wrong insurance (I genuinely didn't know)
Then I bought my Transit. She's been good to me and that's when i started getting really busy (and correct insurance).
Now the van is clocking up the miles and I'm considering leasing for a year while I save up to buy in the future.

How do you keep track of Ad Blue usage?
I’ve got IBCs in the yard, but there’s no meter as it’s just gravity fed. Also, the lorry doesn’t tell us how many litres either.

Hello everyone! I am looking to get my operator licence and was wondering if it is better to open a limited company or work as a sole trader. My concerns are when they ask for the financial part of £8000 for the first lorry and I have to show the availability of the money, either in cash or credit card, I can use my personal bank account or If I have an LTD will have to show money in the business account?
Hope someone can help me! Thanks

Often when this question is asked it is because some people confuse the terms operator's licence and transport manager / CPC holder . You have to obtain your own operator's licence (and receive vehicle discs automatically after that) but you can hire an external transport manager (CPC holder) to be nominated on your operator's licence. In other words, you can hire an external transport manager (CPC holder) in order to obtain your own operator's licence. Read on to understand this difference in detail.

There's a common misconception or confusion that you can pay someone to be the operator licence holder for you or that you can hire an operator's licence or that you can put your vehicles on someone else's operator's licence (i.e. borrow vehicle discs). That's impossible or rather illegal. Some people still do that quietly, usually between close friends or relatives, but it's not done openly on a commercial basis where you can just call someone and do that. You need to obtain your own...

Hi Guys,

New owner operator and finally managed to land a job in the Midlands, its not very lucrative but really need to get the cab moving.

My question is, I had an MOT and inspection 8 weeks ago with a full brake test, but I have only done 60 miles since.

Do I need to get another 6 week inspection or can i wait a few weeks?

I'm planning on covering 1500 miles a week for the next 4 weeks.

Please try not to tear me a new orifice, I'm pretty thick :lol:

Does anybody have any idea. My rear end of the truck (tractor unit) feels like it’s drifting when I go round corners or turn side to side when driving. It’s only just started doing it this afternoon. I’m thinking wheel alignment but wondering if anybody has had a similar issue in the past and has any other ideas? Cheers

Hello, I am looking to buy a Scania tractor unit R series, could anyone advise me some good companies from where I can buy it? Thank you

Contact me regarding any of your transport insurance purposes.

Quick question.
I have number of trailers and vehicles specified on my O licence. Am I able to borrow a trailer on a temporary basis (a few days).
Using this trailer will still keep me under my O licence limit.
Am I able to borrow this trailer? Or does it have to be added to my O licence first.
Thanks

Could someone share average rates on hauler exchange platform on Luton van. Is there any opportunity to monitor prices in other UK hauling platforms? Thanks

Hi everyone, we've just joined CX and getting used to it. There's not much down our way in Dorset at the moment, but hoping to begin picking up backloads at least.
Wondering what the average would/should be for a lwb. Not wanting to go too low to give companies the expectation of this for all, but also want to win some too lol. I've seen a few posts for companies quoting low rates.
Also wondering if you've got an easy way of getting the PODs uploaded to CX. Any tried and tested methods?
Any advice greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

Good Afternoon, What fuel card would you guys recommend? Tia
