    It all depends on where you are doing it.

    You should get informed,every city is different.

    When i started i went to the police station in my neighborhood and asked for guidance.

    That is how i go about this business.



    Get informed and good luck!

    One of my biggest hurdles is that I do not have a truck in order make things easier to load and transport. I am going to have to do it out of my car which is a 2009 and in good condition ... plus it does not look as professional.

    The business cards are a great idea, and I will start getting to work on it.

    Maybe I will take pictures today, and then post them on this forum to give opinions.

    I am trying to get a good feeling for what is a definite no go, and what is definitely ok.


    It would be great if I could get all the info from the Police Dept. but I am concerned they would
    frown on it (even if it is not necessarily illegal).
