How does one start their own courier service?

What licenses would I need in order to start up a restaurant or general delivery/courier service?

  • A restaurant delivery service as in delivering from local restaurants to peoples homes, and I was also wondering what licenses, if any you would need for like a general delivery/courier service that would deliver almost anything but it would be fast, like you could call, someone would be there within an hour and it could be delivered locally or within a certain distance away for a fee (I don't even know if these exist, so don't be afraid to tell me that its a stupid idea, it very well might be) Thanks for any advice, I hope that your a lawyer. Thanks.

    Your local Chamber of Commerce exists to answer these very questions - for free. Your state should also have information on its website. I live in Ohio, and its website has a kit available that you can tailor to your business idea. In it are all the forms and instructions you need to file your business with the state and make it all legal. I just googled "Ohio small business" and it was pretty easy to find. As long as your company is filed with the proper state agency, you should not need any licensing from local governments to operate. I used to deliver meals from restaurants in high school - Ruby Tuesdays, Carrabas, Outback - that sort of thing. It's not a bad idea. If you start this business, I suggest you drop of flyers and that sort of advertising at all the local hotels.
