How much is a processor and man hire day? I tried working out how much I'd do it for and I couldn't get it under £400/day if local to make it worthwhile risking the kit and with one man on their own he'd struggle to do more than 8m3 in a day of anything but super straight cord. Seeing there appears lots of people willing to sell split wood for around £70/m3 I can't see how the hiring thing works out for any other means than to remove a stack of wood thats getting in the way.

 

Maybe if I didn't concern myself with accident, theft and negligence insurance, VAT and PAYE I could get the hiring down to £300 a day?

I charge £250 per day plus fuel plus Vat. My solar dried timber I sell at a minimum of £100 per m3 so work it out. I would certainly not hire out on a machine only basis as the risk of serious damage to the machine is very high.
