Call a courier company - now is a good time of year to do it, not many people want to work as couriers through the winter. I was a courier in London a few years back - sometimes the best job, sometimes the worst... Good luck, Sam |

Hey, I was thinking of trying it out myself. I received a delivery a couple of weeks ago from a cycle courier in Manchester. I was wondering how it works: Do you get paid per hour, assignment, distance? Can you do it on a part time basis? (Test the water etc.) How well does it pay? (Obviously it would be less in Manchester compared to London) Why did you stop? Calling all Couriers - Answers Pleaaaase ! |
