I want to start a moving company
How should I do this?
why a moving company ?
Start moving.
Because I'm a man and I want to lift heavy things and drink milk and drink beer
Also i want to work for myself and keep the money and give jobs to people i like
You might as well just start doing jerky deadlifts if you want to fuck your back. Failing that, buy a truck and advertise. “Giant homo moving company (no homo, not that there’s anything wrong with that)” is my suggestion for a name
Idek what ur trying to tell me
You might as well just start jerking me off
Where you live? Asking for a friend; maybe you and he can work something out.

I wouldn't get a van. Those small used box trucks with a gate lift are the tits.

Moving fucking sucks.
>step1 buy a moving truck, 26 ft
>step 1b register an llc and get insurance for your truck, get advertising via socail media and yelp etc..
>step 2 find some niggers to hire and get the basic workmans comp for them
If you don't have any moving experience id reccomend working for a mover for a couple weeks, other than that its so easy to get work a crack head nigger could do it, its just tough ass work, and if you don't do it right, you end up paying for broken shit, but once you get started and can figure out what works for you it can be pretty profitable if you don't take out loans or partner with anyone else.
You should have around 15k$ to do this comfortably and look professional, but I've definitely seen people get started with half of that, but they had to partner up, if you do your research about truck prices and other tools, you can probably have several thousand to spare from the 15k. For each truck you want at least 40 moving blankets(400$)
1-2 hand trucks
A set of basic tools
2-3 four wheel dollies
Plastic furniture wrap
Set of multiple size jumbo furniture rubber bands
Ratchet straps
Man with a van, common thing actually. Get a van, advertise on Craigslist. Set a fixed price or base price and add gas prices plus labor.
About giving jobs to people you like, recruit people with vans. Give them benefits (i.e. gas cards)
Make sure you come up with a contract for the customer to sign before every move, i was getting ready to start my own moving company, i took a contract from my boss lol but i fucking hate moving, and i didn't really like most people we moved for that much.
There are three types of moving companies that I know of.
1) Company brings people directly to your house and move objects into a truck. They then bring it to your new location.
2) Company brings large storage that you fill yourself. They then move it to wherever your new location may be.
3) Company does the same as above, but they move it to a shipping yard and you have to move the objects from the yard to your house.
All three are already full of business, so you'll have to find something either more convenient or lower price than the rest.
If you can't afford a truck, you can rent them daily from uhaul, cost like over 100$ a day and some gas for a full work day, but you should net around 300-600$ depending on how busy you are/how much you charge/ etc.. but realistically it will be more like 200$ a day when you're starting off and making mistakes, still not bad but its not a walk in the park.
If you decide to rent uhauls from the start, then you could get away with starting your business with around 5k$. But ideally you want 7-15k$. Good luck fren!
If he's in a large city, there are never enough movers to do all the jobs available. There's pretty much room for everyone.
Uber for movers

If you are not a poorfag, you are way better off starting a small to mid sized storage unit, much more passive income, much less physical labor. Same deal, never enough storage units, and the demand should go up as the economy takes a shit.
Establish the company in Chicago, you will become rich from moving people out of the city XD
This unfortunately. But you need to lease a 26' box truck and contract. And get good hands.
Fuck that moving company shit. Do clean outs, way more money and you still can drink milk and beer.
