Could you expand on this a little Duncs? What is the arrangement with "leasing" these vans out- do they pay you a percentage of money earned or just a flat rate etc? Does ALL work belong to you or them?

hi what i,ve done is I have  a payement what I take each week.

This payement has to be paid no matter how many days they work

I lease them the vans and supply the water

ALSO I have gave them all the work also.But they have gained so much work on there own.

with the three vans going out it has generated so much work.

This works for me also should have another van by Febuary.So basically I lease the vans supply the water and they pay me .

Ok I could go for percentage and employ the guys,but did,int thinnk it was gd idea.

Do you have any kind of agreement so they won't eventually buy their own van & wfp setup to save the rent money and do the work with it without  paying you for the work?

Don't think you would be able to have a binding agreement, you don't own people or customers as many have said before on this forum, it's a chance you take

Ok, Cheers. So who is responsible for the insurance, tax and maintenance of the vans that you lease- you or them? Who owns the work also?

I lease my vans water all equipement to the guys

originally I had full round for the guys, but it has generated so much work also

As soon as the guys rounds are full I add another van

all the work is technically theres

i did,int want to be employing guys and dealing with all the problem
