How to Start an Errand Service

Starting an errand service is very easy, low cost home business.  There are a only a few things you need when starting a errand service.


  • Reliable car
  • Cell Phone
  • Website

A reliable car and cell phone go without saying.  However most people might not think having a website or blog is important with a simple service like an errand service.  That is absolutely not true! “Errand service” is searched over 6,600 times per month.
You also need to decide the errand services you are going to provide.  If you are going to provide a good errand service to your clients there should be almost nothing off limits.  However, here are a few errands services you can expect to provide.


  • Going to the grocery store.
  • Getting meds
  • Driving client to and from locations
  • Pick up dry cleaning

The price you can charge will depend on the services you are providing and the location you are in.  However, you can expect to receive approximately $15.00 – $20.00 per hour.
Starting an errand service is like starting any other business.  There are a few must haves.  One one the biggest must haves is you unique sales proposition (USP).  Because providing an errand service is easy and the barrier to entry is extremely low, I suggest coming up with your own spin in providing errand services.
