? Owning a pickup truck gives you a unique opportunity to not only help people in your local area, but also to make money with your truck.

Almost every one of us will need to move things from point A to point B at one time or another in our life, it could be building material, furniture, moving belonging from one place to another or what have you.

If you are one of those folks who do own a pick up truck, why not take advantage of your unique situation and offer your services as a pick up truck driver to folks in your neighborhood while making money with your pick up truck?

It does not matter what year, make or model your pickup truck is, you can make money with it. To get started, make sure your truck is looking clean and ready to go. And keep in mind that your truck can provide you with the most effective form of advertising. You could either use a sign-writer with your contact info and the kind of service you provide on the side of your truck or you can simply use magnetic signs.

How much to charge for your truck services?
The best practice I think would be to charge a flat fee for your service depending on the size of the job and the amount of time it takes to complete it and then charge an amount per mile keeping in mind how much gas you will use for the job.

Also, remember that the single biggest daily expenses with this business is obviously gas. So you need to always price your services according to the current gas prices.

Whatever you do, ensure you have an appropriate pricing structure in place before you even think about finding clients, that way, you wont end up charging people too little or too much. The best way to ensure you have a good pricing structure is to see what your competitors charge around you.
