    No courir company in ROI has insurance

    You need to talk to them how they cicumvent that problem

    Or you can try taking all the broker to the insurance Kangaroo court to insist they find you a quote .Prosess might take years .At the moment they figure there are ten van available to do the work of any run or route so profits in the busness are rock bottom probaly non existant as every laid off guy bought a taxi or van

    *sigh*

    Oh course you need insurance - not just business insurance but GIT too ( Goods In Transit sadly)

    Why do you want to be a courrier? Do you have experience?
