How does one go about starting a removal business

Question

Are there any special requirements can i just buy a van and put an ad in the local and let the phone ring or is there any info i need to now before i begin or where could i find info on something like this

Answer 1

IF YOU INTEND STARTING A BUSINES, YOU WILL NEED AN A.B.N. NUMBER SO YOU CAN ISSUE A TAX RECEIPT, MAYBE REGISTER YOUR BUSINESS NAME, AND GET INSURANCE AGAINST LOSS OR DAMAGE, MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET A "WAIVER" DRAWN UP BY YOUR LAWYER ALSO. A WAIVER CAN BE SIGNED BY CUSTOMERS THAT DONT WANT INSURANCE. OBVIOUSLY YOU NEED PHONES, ADVERTISING, VAN/TRUCK, PACKING EQUIPMENT AND STRAPS, WEAR A UNIFORM, THEY LOOK GOOD AND PROFESSIONAL TO PRIVATE CUSTOMERS, AND, A MUSCLE MAN HELPER. GOOD LUCK
