Everyone is looking to make a little extra money on the side these days, so I found three all-new side hustle business ideas you might want to consider.
Side Hustle Business Idea #1
The other day I noticed someone visiting one of my neighbors and picking up bunches of hydrangea flowers. My neighbor’s yard is lined in hydrangeas trees (which are rapid growers), and it turns out, she sells them to brides who pick them up on the day of the wedding. Typical price is $6 per stem.
Now, you could take this idea even further and purchase a small greenhouse for your yard and grow seasonal floral items, like poinsettias for Christmas or mums for fall. You could sell them to local stores and farmer’s markets.

I have a relative who drives a city bus, but is thinking of retiring. However, he still wanted to do some part-time work using his driving skills. I mentioned that there is a huge backlog of teens trying to get driving lessons as many driving schools couldn’t operate during the pandemic. So I suggested he consider becoming a private driving instructor.
I also mentioned the possibility of being a “private” driver. When we were staying at a hotel years back, we had trouble getting a taxi to go to a destination that was about 45 minutes away. So the concierge recommended using their private driver service. The driver was not an employee of the hotel, but had their own business and the hotel just used them as needed. So for a little more money, we got a luxury car ride to our destination.
Side Hustle Business Idea #3
I had another neighbor who owned a utility trailer, the kind you could attach to a hitch and haul small stuff. Everyone on the street was constantly borrowing this trailer. So, if you have one, consider renting it out for a daily or weekly rate. It is particularly in big demand this time of year when college kids are heading off to school. The rate is around $25 a day, higher if demand is great and trailers are scarce.
