How much should you bid on jobs on the courier exchange

Looking at all the different Van's and prices you should bid

Great video Mr Beady. Explains it very well and love the fact you admitted you can charge cheap to get a run back. Might sounds simple but guess it's easy to get greedy.

If you have a lwb van, watch out for local jobs at around 25 miles for a small van! These are well worth bidding for £50. Quite often they are regular jobs for larger courier firms and you will win the bid as they want to keep the contract. Great filler jobs when it’s quiet 👍

Hi Big Beardy, loving your videos they are enormously helpful thank you. Question if I may; how hard is it to get into and around London? I see a lot of jobs going that way but having never driven in the old smoke I won’t lie it fills me with a sense of dread. I imagine it to be utter chaos and massively confusing, is it that bad? Thanks, John

Hi, I've just retired but want to spend a few years doing some delivery/collection work. I have a decent van from my previous work. I would appreciate if you could point me in the direction of how to find work. I don't want multi-drop, but single drop/collection longer distance jobs would be ideal. I have looked at CX but don't know how they work. Are there any other job sources out there please ?

Nice one thanks for information on bidding ta

My cousin is sayin he averages £130-200 a day. How is that possible in a mwb van when only 0.75p a mile.

Then he say he was gonna pick up a parcel from bristol to warrington for £240. I think allot of people chatting rubish or aint it?

Very good info! What’s the state of the cx now? COVID is it busy? Is it worth joining now?

[jennydosanjh]

Hey I’m thinking of doing courier work, I’m female and have a Renault traffic van I’ve moved to Darlington North Yorkshire

Got rid of my xlwb boxer as struggled to get more than 85p a mile... short drops more per mile.. I'm in a small van and charge anywhere from .60p a.mile to get me the right direction to 65 70p for normal.. also Whack on £ for any jobs going to the sticks.. your last bit about bidding £50 not the normal £80 to get you home and.pay petrol is in my opinion wrong it ruins it for the rest

Hi Big Beardy, please do let us know how would you charge a London job, let’s say for example From: NW10 To: SW6, there are only 7 miles, so definitely you won’t charge £1.20 per mile

[TRUTHDISTRIBUTIONNETWORK]

So Beardy have you Discovered any limitations regarding van age

What I wanna know is how much does it actually cost to get started with CX

[sukyking]

Hi m8 I’m confused, please help when you say charge £100 ish to London, well it’s gunna cost me £100 in fuel to get there. Not joined yet that’s why I’m asking and enjoying your information. Thanks

Hi Been offered regular self employed work in Norwich using my Luton-91p per mile I have been offered- work is national -several loads and drop offs per day. Interested but not sure if 91p is the going rate-any toughts?

[AINSLEY]

So on top of the fuel pricing do you also charge a flat rate per hour?

[Absolutetruth]

Hi big, i saw couple of videos, correct m if i am wrong, what i have understood so far, i believe that courier exchange doesn't assign you jobs but we need to bid for it and fix the deal with the customer directly right? i live in Leicester, i am looking forward to join, at the same time i am confused ... Beardy please advise... thanks in advance
