Day Rate NOT London and the SE

[benedmonds]

Following on from the thread on rates, I thought we could try a poll. 

Many (including myself) are not comfortable putting actual figures on a public forum and I find even in private most don't share their rates and the few that do may not be representative..

A poll should allow us to anonymously post rates and see where we fit in the scheme of things...

My hope is that some will realise the error of their ways and increase their rates...Allowing us all to earn more for less work.. 

I know there will be regional differences but to try to minimise that can anyone from the SE and London just not take part..you can have your own poll

I also know people have different kit and therefore different rates but if you adjust your quote for a team consisting of climber, second climber and groundie with a 3.5 ton truck and 6 inch chipper.

An average 8 hour day, standard domestic or commercial works...

To make it comparable include VAT if VAT registered

As explained in the other thread I dont have a day rate per se however I have selected what I charge on avg per decent tree i.e it fills a day for 2 or 3 men with the kit you mentioned.  Did some Connie bashing today 3 of us full day and the money was in the category I chose.

Sorry i clicked on the wrong price and cant work out how to sort it out!

That will make the poll more realistic Dan.

We all cock up the price now and then!

Mick, my post was related to the number of times I read people saying they charge over £500 per day, yet they are not VAT registered
