Pollard 14 Lime trees

[Steve Bullman]

Just price it per day for a number of trees you know you can easily and comfortably do. Any extras you get done on each day will be a bonus

Going by the photograph it looks like a access road to estate or similar so time is important so not to be disruptive for as long as needs be so I would get at least 4 on the job and equipment as I said and crack it out as soon as possible.

 

i would be pricing this job on a price as I do on all my work between £2.4k & £2.7k once Price agreed down to you how quick you want to crack it out.

 

had a similar job last week so I decided to get extra help with another 3 lads Chipper and truck and a job what would have taken me and my 2 lads a good 2 days we cracked it out and site cleared and tidy by 2.30 same day.

 

0k had to pay out for the lads and extra truck and chipper but was still well up for basically half days work and clients were over the moon with how quick we were and no problems with payment,people don’t like to be disrupted to much.

 

each to there own how you price and carry out jobs but in this game more then most time is money big style.

No need for 2 chippers if you do it this way as second chipper will just get in the way all day. 

Exactly. Two trucks so one is just being filled and the other is driving. Not sure what the second chipper is doing with a bunch of regrowth off those.

 

How tall are they? Get a local farmer to drop a trailer off and fill that. Picture doesn't make them look huge tbh.

Is this to pollard, or re-pollard?
...Should make a difference as to who you choose to do the climbing... will also make a difference to what’s coming off too.

That's ok but large trailer dump in the way is useless or so most sub 750kg chippers will not chip over tail board or side of large grain trailer

If it was that or an hour of driving, I'd find a way?
