\"\"<\/a>So many people are giving up working for someone else and going self-employed these days. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

In fact, it was recently discovered that a huge number of women were becoming self-employed<\/a>, rising by 31,00 in the last quarter of 2018.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re thinking of doing it, but don\u2019t know how, have you ever considered getting a van? If this sounds weird, below are six self-employed jobs you could do with the help of a van, and a little hard work.<\/p>\n

Catering<\/b><\/p>\n

If you love cooking, you\u2019ve probably been creating a storm in the kitchen for friends and family for years now. But, what about turning it into a full-time job?<\/p>\n

Mobile catering will allow you to cater for everything from weddings to birthday parties, and once you have the van and your catering equipment and supplies<\/a>, you\u2019ll be good to go. But remember to start small and find your niche market before diving in the deep end.<\/p>\n

Pets<\/b><\/p>\n

People are spending a fortune on their pets these days, and if you love animals, it\u2019s a great area to move into.<\/p>\n

From dog walking to pet grooming, it can all be done from your very own van. Obviously, for grooming, you\u2019ll need specific training and qualifications, and a van that\u2019s tailored to grooming pets, which could cost you more in the long run. But, for walks, you\u2019ll be able to collect dogs in the local area and take them walking in wonderful places with ease.<\/p>\n

Cleaning<\/b><\/p>\n

One of the best jobs around, it allows you to get the satisfaction of cleaning while making someone\u2019s home look fabulous. Grab your supplies and stock up the van and you\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n

One of the best things about doing this from a van is you can cover more areas, rather than just the local one.<\/p>\n

Gardening<\/b><\/p>\n

Loads of people want a wonderful garden, but not everyone likes getting down to the nitty-gritty to make their garden reach its full potential.<\/p>\n

However, if you\u2019re an avid gardener and love nothing more than ripping up weeds, cutting down trees, and mowing grass, this could be the way for you to go with your new business. You\u2019ll need to get a wide array of appliances tough, but with the right sized van, you\u2019ll be able to fit them in without worry.<\/p>\n

Creative<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maybe you\u2019ve been working in the creative industries for a while, and you\u2019ve had enough of working for someone else and want to go it alone.<\/p>\n

Well, now\u2019s the time. If you\u2019re a photographer, videographer or even a hairdresser, chances are you own all the equipment you need, which is the first stage. Once you\u2019ve got the van, you\u2019ll then be able to go on long-haul jobs and local ones without worry. But, before you buy the van, make sure you\u2019ve got some business first by giving those old contacts a little call.<\/p>\n
