Day rate for this?

On general de-veg and clearance work?

 

Just wondered what peeps thought this setup should be out for per day? Some wildly differing prices across the country...

Is that David Davison's outfit? Looks bloody smart, smarter then the old Valtra!

 

Realistically I doubt farmers (tightest customers you have probably) would pay much more then £40 an hour, so 9hr day = £360. I know its worth more but just an example. I am planning on a similar outfit for this winter but having chipper on the front and chipping into a trailer on the back or having timber trailer on the back, and was gonna go in at £40hr

Yes thats Davids kit, nice isnt it i worked with him when he had the old Super Major with Hydratongs!! Oh how times change

Around 500-600 quid a day.

Diesel, grease and valtra's very expensive hydraulic oil all cost a lot. Not to mention paying a good operator a fair bit to get the most out of it without breaking it. It's about 60k worth of kit there i'd of thought.

 

Is that grapple piped up with a saw box on it? As there seems to be a lot of extra pipework going on.

Surely your big Valtra costs more than the littler valmet?
