briand - How we started
It all started in 2011 with a side business that was about importing small 2 seater MG cars from the UK to the Netherlands. Because the cars were quite small, they were only able to move (2) people and nothing else.
Often there were car parts needed and bigger cars were rented to transport the parts. I (Bryan, on the left in that photo) bought a cheap small van (VW Caddy) for €500. Since I was a student with some spare time left, I thought about the idea of cutting costs of the van by making money with it.
Next to our student facility, there was an international student building and the idea of helping them in their small removals for a little bit of money came into my mind. I started printing some advertisements made in Word and I spammed their mailboxes.
Suprisingly there was response on the spam and people were interested (who wouldn’t for €10 per hour?). I was happy that people showed interest in the service and I started assisting in small moves for international students. Sometimes the engine didn’t start or the van just stopped working during a move, but in the end all jobs were done and everyone was happy.
