Up here if I got £1200+VAT  for that, I'd be happy.

 

Unless I've been fooled by the pic's.

I work with a climber who does this !

everything is thrown in a stack all points the same way in the direction you need to drag or feed the chipper !

it's amazing to watch him work he is so fast it's unreal at times !

he does use a lowering rope on the big stuff though 

I use my hiab on the big stuff, usually.

They weren't soft back then, its the ease of production on their good ground thats made em lazy ?

Nah, it’s the chip on BOTH shoulders and the clogs that has inhibited the productivity of your average Northener, all that wasted effort shuffling around in the cold wearing nout but a vest and bumbling about hard done-by they are whilst dragging their bottom lip on the gravel..... Eeeeeeee by ‘eck, ecky thump, lard sandwiches and the like.

oh forgot to say that tree would be  felled and chipped  and logged in a day on my work sites  !

and i assume it's stacked in the garage which is next to the tree?(are you splitting it too? would need to add to price ) if so wow what a hard job to stack it in there !(where is the sarcasm button)

to be fair i don't do stump grinding so can't really price that part of it so will just price the fell £800 for  a days work for maybe 2/3 people

Prices always depend on area. (And overheads)

that is true but they don't vary by £1000 aday  on this sort of tree  ! or maybe they do and i need to charge more:scared1:

I assume you mean charge?

I  reduced (i say reduced i mean fellled to 12 foot) an oak 2 weeks ago that had butt rot  and had been  pollarded 2/3 years previously  easiest tree job i have ever done !  charged £800 me and the climber  climber took wood i chipped the brash into the boarder gone for 4 oclock 

felt alittle guilty as i took £500 and gave him £ 300 ( great m8 amazing climber and always sorts me out ) and i felt a little guilty at the price ........... then i see what some of you guys want and I feel better
