A courier network is normally a group of small independent courier companies or individual self employed couriers, that work together in some way. This allows them as a whole, to operate a national service. Working as part of one or more courier networks, can greatly increase the amount of work you can obtain and also makes obtaining backloads a far simpler process.
Courier work is normally gained by bidding on the jobs, or receiving a call directly, when a job is available in your area and is suitable for your vehicle. Backloads can be obtained in a similar way. Payment is usually made by the courier company that offers the work, but occasionally, payment may be made directly by the customer.
