Should there be a minimum price for jobs on the Courier Exchange?

We all get the needle when jobs sell for silly prices so why not just put a minimum price on the job?

Yeah, and they have some terribly rude staff who act like you're beholden to their app or something.

@Magneticvortex-kk4gb Problem is people try to use this app as a main source of work. From my research, if you're running your own truck or fleet of trucks. It's simply not profitable. You will be out of money in no time

@@againstall4agsandtrans511 You can pull in a wage using the platform alone in a van .... but not trucks from my experience . I was happily ticking over doing my thing until life got in the way and i was forced to take on a proper job with sick , holidays and all the stuff id forgotten about . If it all went wrong it would be 50/50 on getting a van and back at it to becoming a taxi driver .

The only people making money are the posters and Courier Exchange, the couriers like ourselves make peanuts moving their goods and paying subscription fees.

I never had a problem with co loading, it's my van and I'll carry who I want and if the consigno has a problem with it they can always pay my charter rates. I did however take offence when an agent thought he owned me and my van even though I was only charging backload prices. Very often they do not stipulate any conditions beforehand like timed deliveries or even the description of the goods to be collected, as requured by law.

I like your videos Pete but I disagree. If drivers are to have a reasonable quality of life then we need a minimum price per mile for size of van to run in conjunction with the bidding system. I used to work with an old Jewish fella 30 years ago and he told me that no job is worth doing unless there's an angle 😂 and he was right. Unfortunately there is no angles left in the courier game 😕 other than being lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time so why are you gonna give that money away to the shipper's by doing the job for next to nothing when it should be to your benefit that you're going that way.

I don't really mind about the bidding part. If someone chooses to put a higher on lower bid then that's ok. But if there only doing it because they are going to co-load then that's a big problem.

i'm fairly new to the exchange , iv'e found jobs go between 60 t0 70p per mile with a small van, which is fine if you are co loading but as a solo driver it's pretty hard

Couriers should build an equivalent to the Courier exchange which is easy enough to do Return load website should be Fixed price loads Priced at slighty above going rates Liveried vehicles and uniform Newish electric vehicles only Provide the platform for free and take the operating costs from ad dollars which is tge Facebook youtube method which works And website to charge 10% commission per return load
@godzillas6301

Nah .... cant be done Fixed price loads Thats lovely except diff areas command different rates as does time of day and whats involved ..... all of which you cant build into the fixed price . To instead have a shipper decide what the rate is is doomed to fail as they arnt likely to post up a fair price , its not in there interest . It would be void of jobs on this basis . If someone expreienced were to be the person who decides on the price well thats a serious manpower cost issue . Priced at slighty above going rates Also lovely .... meaning its not competative and there is zero reason to post a job on the platform if you are expected to pay above the going rate . Liveried vehicles and uniform Oh right so you are employed ............ you would be in the eyes of the law . Great way to kill off other chances of business is to have a stickered up van . Magnets also are poor and having to get changed to get a job elsewhere is extreme . Newish electric vehicles only Everyone has £30,000 spare plus running costs ! cant happen . Provide the platform for free and take the operating costs from ad dollars which is tge Facebook youtube method which works Sounds a plan except it requires manpower and a seriously expensive platform . Who has multi millions to create in the first instance to trickle money back in the longer term ? . And what adverts could come even close to pay everyday costs no matter the initial ? . There wouldnt be even slightly close to enough clicks to come even close . A platform awash with adverts when seeking a job isnt going to go down well .... so pay for no adverts ? may as well pay CX And website to charge 10% commission per return load ah ................. thats a massive no from anyone and everyone . Shippers arnt going to be happy to pay any extra , couriers cant afford to give 10% of their income away .... just ah The ship has sailed to create something better than CX . The only way of bettering them is to have a few years and 50 million quid spare . Its not impossible but its not probable as there just isnt return and reward from investment . Sorry
