Sunbed
Hire - Typical Profits
A typical Sunbed Home Hire Business usually operates 3 types of sunbeds:- Vertical, Double and Single Units. The following estimate is based on a modest fleet of 50 sunbeds, being hired out for 4 week periods. There are 13 X 4 week periods a year, however the estimate is based on 12 X 4 week hire periods per sunbed. This compensates for any time when not all sunbeds are out on hire, and makes the estimates very realistic.
A fleet of 50 sunbeds equates to an average of 2 collections
and 2 deliveries per day, taking approx 1/2 an hour per job to
include travelling. This is less than 15 hours work per week for
one person, but generates over £1,000 in revenue.
