Come with me today in a full day in the life of a self-employed courier where I get up between 4:30 5:00. I like to have a little matcha or a coffee in the morning. Perfect Ted always in a cup. There we have just a matcha spinning away there. Perfect. So now move on to the breakfast where we have the porridge, dark chocolate. Say hello to the little fish. Now the fruit. A little drizzle of honey. Get ready for the gym. Always like to make sure that if I’m going to be on the road a long time, I get my body moving. So gym done. Even if that’s 45 minutes, an hour, just get the body moving. Now we’re ready for the road. Water in hand. Now we’re ready for the first pickup of two today. So now we got loading up the first box. Nice and light that one. Ready for the manufacturing equipment. This was heavy duty. So I made sure that this was blanket around it and heavy duty straps. As you can see there, fully locked together, all ready for me to deliver. And it’s only ever going to be a good day when you see a free beans or free cup of Costa on the way. Latte ready. Ready for the road. Long day ahead. Buzzing to see the samples as well for the ratchet straps. So now let’s get on the road. Three-hour journey. Podcast ready. Let’s do this. While I’m in my groove, just on the way to Carile, I get a customer call ready for a pickup tomorrow. Been asked this morning, do a motor delivery to No Man from us. When? Obviously not today. It could be tomorrow. I didn’t know whether you wanted to assign a different driver. No, I’ll do that. I’ll do that tomorrow. As last time, were it big? Yeah. Yeah, cuz it’s same size, isn’t it? Yeah, it’s only one motor. It’s about 20 kilos. He’s just going to put it on a small pallet. Yeah. So you can for lift it on rather than manhandle it on. But you’re right. I’ll send you um email confirming the booking then. Yeah. After delivering a small pallet after your days, all delivered. Now we’re fueling up. I always like to put in Β£50. Near enough a full tank for me. Now we’re on site, ready to go. PPEd up, big boots on. This was a site where I needed to do it. All ready to rock and roll. No problems at all. I’ve got on my hard hat. And this one paid me Β£150 a mile, Β£156 mi, Β£234 plus VA. All delivered. Customers happy. Onto the next. Now we’re into farmland. Absolute middle of nowhere. Lovely views. Look at the little sheep. I’m here. I’ve got to find some milk. So, this was milk powder from a family friend who owns a farm. I don’t know the farm’s name, but this was back to Doncaster, 100 miles, and this paid me Β£150 plus VAT. I’m in the grand total today of Β£460. I have to do as a courier. All done. So, now let’s head back. 2 hours, 17 drive. I’m going to stop off half an hour. I’m going my first live. Let’s do this. That is the end of my day. Hope you enjoyed watching that. Yeah, productive day, weren’t it? Follow for more. We’re going live on Tik Tok live every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It’s a day in our life. Hope you enjoyed it. Every deliverer matters.

Are you ok finding work most days? Is this just one of the better days? Seems suspiciously easy lol all I hear is people saying they can't get any work! Do you just use the apps for work?

My main question is tax. Iβm new to being self employed but still unaware of how much I should put aside for tax each week. I make 650 a week and have been putting aside 10% of that for tax. Is that accurate or should I be putting away more? Itβs only my third week in.
i used to live in a Normanton road in Basingstoke area how weird
Iβm betting that went to SEW EURODRIVE!
Can I get some details how I get into this myself
