How to Start Food Delivery in London on a Scooter — Easy Bikes - Motorcycle Rentals, Recovery, Sell

Food delivery is one of the most flexible ways to earn in London. Here is what you need to get started on a scooter.

Right to work, licence and CBT

You need the right to work in the UK, a valid driving licence and a CBT certificate to ride a 125cc scooter on L plates.

The right insurance

Delivery work needs insurance that covers food delivery, often called hire and reward cover. Standard social cover is not enough. Check what your platform requires.

The right bike

A 125cc automatic scooter such as the Yamaha NMAX or Honda PCX is economical and reliable. Rent to buy lets you pay weekly from your earnings.

Kit

A thermal bag or top box, a phone holder, USB charging, waterproofs, gloves and heated grips for winter.

Sign up with the platforms

Each platform has its own application and document checks.
