Discuss Good Old Delroy, he gets all the best Jobs :) in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

These days I could probably do 99% of my jobs using my wifes car and a very basic tool set / drll / MFT
I do the very same... anything bigger gets delivered. Many clients dont want trade vans outside .vans get robbed too easily . There was a Guy called Martin some years ago who cycled around mayfair ,chelsea etc doing domestic electrics and Plumbing .He was GOOD. Not exactly sure if up to date with qualifications then. But again, he was perfect in all he ever did . That guy made a FORTUNE > He only needed basic tools he could carry on his bike. No vehicle to run etc etc. He lived the dream !

If your day mainly consisted of EICRs and Small domestic fault finding Jobs / small installs then you could easily do it from a bike. Decent tool rucksack big enough for handtools , an 18v drill and MFT.
Get any materials sent to the customers home.

If i lived in London i'd Veto Pro Pac + box on wheels instead of driving
 
Tow it behind would be my choice if I was still working, but may be a bit of a stretch now I live fifty odd miles from London, feasible when I lived in Blackheath, but then do I fancy an eight hour day and then a cycle home, I think I have just talked myself out of that. 🤔
