Working From Your Motorhome (1 Viewer)

[whiskers27]

Hi All

Just wondering how many of you earn a living from your motorhome and if there are any of you that do what do you do?

I saw a little piece in Aprils Practical Motorhome magazine where Octavian Security are looking for motorhome owners to man sites across the UK using there motorhomes as a base.

It just got me thinking what other jobs people have while using the motorhomes.

Well I COULD work anywhere I can get a signal to the lappy

When I am away my daughter does most of the hands on stuff ( packing orders up and the like ) while I still handle all technical stuff, ordering and pretty much all other aspects of the business .. But to be fair I only go away rarely and she could proly run the whole shebang without any input from the old man apart from techy stuff !

Orders come in, she puts the parts in box's and sends em off.. If something gets low on stock either she will order or mail me and I will organise replenishment

I also do a few web sites for folk so if it is quiet while I am away I could always do a couple of pages on someone's site as peeps tend to want them updated all the time !

So yes, I could certainly run my business from wherever I happen to plug in to !

I am sure a lot of people can and do work from the van. However beware there are ramifications.
if over 3.5Ton your vehicle then becomes a heavy goods vehicle even if only carrying your overalls or computer for use in the business. (Needing the appropriate licence and not a grandfathered exemption) Insurance goes through the roof if you are covered at all irrespective of weight. so do be careful out there. loose talk costs pounds.

When we are away, we work from ours when a good connection is around. It works quite well until someone wants to view before hire - in which case, you end up explaining that you are quite far away!

Don't you always find, the best campsites have the worst wifi??oh:

In that case I shall be sure to sit out side when taking calls then WM !
