Is Renting a Cargo Van for Gig Apps and Load Boards Worth It? Let's Find Out!

[@isdiroambroiso]

I rented a van on Fluid truck for 28 days. It was $1890 for the month, 100 miles each day it’s rented. 39 cents a mile after you go over. Comes with full coverage insurance. In two weeks I’ve made well over 6k. And that’s not including the $800 I made with side jobs

[@Alexander-e3o7d]

So you did that, how'd you find the work?

[@sincereneely5444]

My husband did he same as well.

[@isdiroambroiso]

[@jenniferstewart1739]

@@Alexander-e3o7d I have the same question. What apps or brokers did you work with? Some are reluctant to work with rented vans.

[@EdWilliamstech]

My cousin's good friend's husband's brother did the same and MADE BANK YEAH.

[@jamesevans225]

Thank You very much for the very informative video. I'm exclusively a Door Dasher tired of being clowned when I tell people I got $65 for 6hrs of work doing DD. This video answered so many questions for me as I am trying to find a higher paying side hustle.

[@asiatic_black]

Same situation here

[@richwillis8]

Fluid truck is pretty cheap and there all over the place and very flexible. also with places like penske or ryder you can get a better rate if you rent longer terms like a week or a month.

[@CEOshaqo]

@@richwillis8 I did the same shit bro got videos up right now with it. @carsandcribs channel got some fire resources

[@StuSpice]

Man, this is one of the best comprehensive videos on the subject. Thank you! For those that do not have a van yet this is an eye opener. Depending on load payout will ultimately determine if this is a good choice or bad one. I appreciate the break down on both charts!

Shoulda gave us the breakdown for leasing/ financing lol that woulda showed us if that’s a better route

[@homer23422000]

Adding the breakdown of a couple of your days and rental costs was too much! You were spoon-feeding us on this one. 😆😆 I drove Roadie, Senpex, and another gig app most of last year, I would need to be with a dispatcher also for rentals to make any profit.

[@franklinscarlett9698]

I agree about turo but even for U-Haul if get a weekly rate for that van the rates are much cheaper and if you drive more the money you pay is less ......good video.

[@dameionmclean8959]

Rate gets cheaper with uhual ? And do they do unlimited miles?

[@Xtremeproducts]

In the Army, we say perception is everything

[@Krossover24]

You have to get to a company with unlimited miles for the week all these companies you can negotiate the mileage price and price for the week

[@Concretejungle01]

Been watching you for a while bro I wanted to get in to the industry for a while ago. Still do just taking my time want to do it right now

[@Concretejungle01]

We need to creat our own app or lien board for box truck or vans

[@wonderfulcolubrids]

Enterprise also rents vans and with unlimited mileage

[@shanester8712]

Enterprise vans are not unlimited. At least not on web site. If using for commercial (you have to disclose for insurance). It's a whole different ballgame. $2500 a month.

[@Rideshare-Lisa]

It looks like the best option would be to just purchase it yourself.

[@myronjackson95]

Man the maintenance and insurance is crazy tho

[@MichaelGomez-x1k]

I rent my budget sprinter van for $400 a week at $0.01 a mile 1 million dollar auto insurance and damage coverage for only $660 a week

[@Pre_Paid]

How much are you making a week tho?

[@CharlesDiesel-sf4rj]

Peace... I got my business registered. Do you make good money renting?

[@Invertmini1212]

You could be leasing to own for $600 a month and paying towards it to actually own it.

[@franklinscarlett9698]

I have an account with Penske and the rates are much much cheaper. Budget getting an account is good but best bet in Penske

[@wiseroffice892]

uhaul is the better option for starting out with a rental

[@boomieboo]

Thanks for this video! So informative about something many wonder about. And personally it was way more watchable because you just spoke normally instead of doing all the unique tweaky movements and talking loudly as you often do.

[@stackmosayless-1669]

As far as renting a van if you need to rent from Home Depot only for a couple hours. $19.95 for 75 minutes.

Now I wanna see this for box trucks

@@dameionmclean8959 maybe a breakdown can be better to exoplanets the negs and positives of it

[@Esn3akz]

Enterprise truck rental is another

[@johnnyh9483]

If it’s worth it or not depends on what are the cost associated with owning the van compared with the cost of renting the van. You showed us the cost of renting the van. what are the daily cost of owning the van. I’m assuming the daily cost of owning the van are lower but would like to know how much lower compared to renting the van

Not sure if their in your area, but check out fluid trucks

Can I add rental truck info into my gig apps after rental purchase to qualify for bigger loads

@ facts

[@CEOshaqo]

@ that’s what I did to start

[@Johnson13210]

It would only make sense if you were renting for a week to see if its the kind of business you want to get into. Setting aside .35-40. per mile would pay for a new Benz and it would be yours vs .60 to .70 paying for someone elses van and then also paying to use it. Then you would have the money to replace it at 150,000 miles. Provided the loads are there of course! Also would have been nice to see the time involved with each load?

[@Livinghealthy619]

Let's go and hustle🎉

[@cwwright83able]

Which Load board did u use???

[@jamest3188]

are those expenses write offs though? at the end of the year it might still be worth it, because its mileage and car expense each day. instead of just mileage.

[@CS-qc7np]

I like the video with the charts. However, when comparing the vans it is better to use the same load to compare all the vans. This gives an apples to apples comparison like you have to compare the same comps in RE (4 bd, 2 Bth). With that said, this was a great video, and I think a lot of people wanting to jump into the delivery space need to think of it like a business and really calculate everything.

[@ejblanksjr.4637]

Not wort it for me😢

[@divinicus]

you get the gig first or van first

[@carsandcribs]

Gig apps first.

[@Rich4Ever305]

They recently crashed my cargo van but yea I see this it’s not really an option way too expensive lol

[@odin7682]

Up here in Canada the best is home depot. $119/day unlimited mileage. You have to have insurance to cover a rental vehicle on your personal or business auto insurance to rent it. I don't generally need a cargo van for what I do but on the occasion when I do need one it's for a longer haul so I go with home depot and that unlimited mileage

[@thecanteyshow937]

is there also a down payment?

[@AdoKjr]

Are the Uhauls electric or Hybrid. 21$ 🤑🤯 Not my 2hr rental 🥰

[@fingerlight4860]

What apps allow you to sign up with a cargo van, I'm having a hard time

[@harrambeejackson1300]

They are definitely not worth renting for gig apps. Id only do the rentals for emergency purposes!

[@EllislogisticsLLC]

U-Haul gives you 100 miles free per day in my area. So if you rent it out for 7 days you get 700 miles for free.

[@shizz9954]

What area

[@travisschwartz3397]

[@Joe-p6t2b]

Renting will not be profitable after expenses. What about long term leasing or buying a used vehicle?

Definitely a good idea to buy used and make your profits bigger.

[@prodsirsiah]

The commercial rates make a difference

[@musafad]

Thank you brother

[@BIGBOY33ism]

So if you do 300 miles at .69 cents a mile that's over $200, plus the $19.99, plus insurance and additional fees. 🤔, better off just buying the sprinter van or cargo van. Just not adding up.

Renting a van from these companies ain’t worth it unless you’re doing a big payout catering going 5 miles.

Try fluid truck rentals. I rent for the year $47 a day , with the insurance, and 100 free miles a day, 29 cents a mile after 100 miles
