More privacy panel vans = metal covered up area over the cargo area as for passenger vans, u are referring to those mini-bus(van-like size) which could sit 10-12 people or vans with glass panel on? vans with glass panel is known as glazed van. u still could use glazed vans for ferrying mistresses/god-daughters from china/streetwalkers from geylang, just make sure u got those solar films on.

Drumstick Clutched May 20, 2009 Share May 20, 2009 TS...there are a few other ways beside ferry school children. Here are some other alternative: 1) Send workers home at night - Mostly is between 12 - 3am jobs ( factories and resturant ) 2) Ferry Service / pickup service - Airport transfer or crewmen transfer ( Need to know the middle-man ) by per trip 3) Private booking. Punctuality is important. He is in the members group so can pickup more bookings.... Used to ferry kids to school but gave up as its too troublesome and $$ is not worth it. He is doing afternoon till early AM.... morning slp at home as morning jams is not worth the effort. Decent income per mth as he is single. But if looking for more $$, be prepare to sacrifice your time and sleeps... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picnic06-Biante15 Supersonic May 20, 2009 Share May 20, 2009 (edited) Im planning to do a small scale business with 1 or 2 mini vans primarly to cater to schools and also to corporates during non-school hours. But i do not know where to start. Can people here give pointers both good and bad? Also not sure if i should do it alone or to venture with a partner. Thank you. You need LTA approval to fetch school children. But first of all, you must obtain a principal agreement with a school before going to LTA to apply. See any school would want your service or not but I doubt for small operator like yourself. You can try by sub certain routes from those existing school bus operators and slowly you starts from here to become a major player later. For what I know, some existing operators could not cope with the demand as there are a lot of activities after school where large operators cannot fetch as they are engage with factories to ferry workers. Hope can help you here..... Edited May 20, 2009 by Picnic06 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
