dont do what the mobile Valet I paid for did last week and throw all the paper and crap he couldn't hoover under my car for me to find when I moved the car. He's lost a stack of repeat business.

Have you tried Wirral Biz? they're there to help people set up in business. http://www.wirralbiz.biz/site/

I've seen the Wirral Biz sign/building as I'm leaving ToolStation on the New Chester Rd.

As you come out of their car park it's the building on the right.

Insurance is a big part, especially when dealing with something as expensive as a car. Make sure you have suitable insurance before anything in the case of any accidents.

Just my opinion Put your money and time into sometink else, its not like it was 20 years ago when i first started there's to many at it now to even make a living out of it, That's why I moved on with a change in career. The best of luck with what ever you end up doing. thumbsup

you need to register with hmrc for tax and nic. If Wirral Biz has gone there will be another agency in its place. There are schemes to help set you up.
If I was going self employed I would look at setting up gardening services. Wirral is full of elderly people with large gardens.(including me)
Good Luck
