I'm considering joining this site but before I commit just want to know is it worth while and can the money be good?
Is this site worthwhile?

The site is a tool, If you wish to sign up and then sit back a wait for the phone to ring then forget it. If you are prepared to log on regularly, contact and network with other members, do a good job at a fair price, Then yes go for it. You can only earn good money if you put the hours in. Yes sometimes unsociable, The odd middle of the night call and the job that goes pear shaped through no fault of your own. If you communicate with vendors and customers well then you will be fine.
You only get out of it what you put into it.. As N+D has stated its a tool with loads of Information, and nothing else.
The other important aspect is make sure you have relevent documentation as some wont use you if your showing a red marker in your profile.
And as for "can the money be good" that depend on who your subbing to, If I was you it would be worth looking at some of the recent threads on here.
Do your homework, before taking the plunge, sign upto COD (courier owner drivers) forum and ask the same question maybe.
Good Luck
It's true with regard to the documentation. I have just looked through the site for a courier in Nottingham to cover a job to Slough so i can call direct. I can't list as a job as there may be a return so really a local courier is better suited. I was put off by the lack of info about some couriers and also the lack of insurance updates. I simply will not take the risk.

Just be careful to treat members as if they were unsolicited enquirys as it is your responsibility to check if they are real people
