🤔 We are a community. Not an exchange.
I want to highlight an important difference. And I’m open to being proven wrong. This post was provoked by a member pointing out to me that they’re not getting enough deliveries here for it to be worthwhile. That’s a fair frustration, and it deserves an honest conversation. A community lifts each other up. Shares knowledge. Helps each other put food on the table. An exchange is a corporation with shareholders. Its model is driven by profit. And too often, that profit comes from pushing workers into constant undercutting, where survival depends on reducing the value of their own service. We’ve already seen how this plays out. Uber disrupted the taxi industry by promising flexibility and opportunity. In the long run, many drivers were left with lower earnings, higher costs, and little control while the platform retained the power and the profit. “If we do not learn the lessons from the past, we are doomed to repeat them.” So the real question is this: Is the courier sector heading the same way by becoming dependent on platforms? This space was built to support couriers, not extract from them. If you see it differently, I genuinely welcome the conversation.

I'm compiling a list of companies from within our community who are actively looking for couriers who want to subcontract work, pass on overflow jobs, or occasionally need extra drivers. Please comment below with: 1️⃣ Your name / business name 2️⃣ Type of deliveries (same-day, multi-drop, man & van, pallets, etc.) 3️⃣ Areas covered (towns, regions, or UK-wide) 4️⃣ Vehicle requirements (small van, LWB, XLWB, car, etc.) 5️⃣ How couriers should contact you (DM, profile link, email) Or even link to their application page. I will be listing these companies in my resources that I send out in my newsletter to give them as much exposure as possible while helping our couriers get more work. This is truly members helping members 🙂
