As long as theres an anchor point for a tirfor and its local, £200

 

a good ground anchor may work, I'd probably say a similar figure if I wasn't stacked out with work - although if it is to dispose of 14 root balls I would struggle, as my local green waste place wont put them through their shredder. Maybe you were planing to leave them somewhere sympathetic as habitat

 

Also I've not tried it but can you pull that size conifer out by driving off in the van or will it distort the chassis tow bar mounts etc?

I appreciate this job may be one you can't drive up to, just wondered if people have tried to pull them out with vans where there is access.

Just chuck the root balls over the fence, sorted

I personally estimated £450

What you estimate and what I or anyone else would estimate are 2 different things.

 

Don't sell yourself short and price everything with growth in mind, where do you want to be in 5-10-15 years time? No point just scrapping by.

 

I do a lot of my own work on the weekend - friends, family and friends of family in the week i look at it as beer money although I am not doing it for free! I quote for the company I work for in the week the pricing is very different.

If I went alone again my pricing would be different based on the above.

Can't see what could go wrong.

Be interesting to know, I wouldn't expect to get the job at that price as only looks a mornings work assuming just cutting to ground level? Fair play if you get it

It is interesting how we all quote differently on jobs etc. I suppose the right way is to price the job with what your happy with.
