land rover 110 td5 - £1029.00

hilux 250 £1143.00

l200 4 life £1313.00

ranger £1313.00

We use a company called Swintons, based in newcastle, cheapest quotes for truck, chipper and forwarding trailer (and car!), around around £400(£380) fully comp for a Mitsubishi 4 work. No one else came any where near them for prices on anything we had to insure, most were over £1000. for the truck.

Obviously depends on your age and post code, but my 07 plate Ranger is with Direct Line at £577 - last year they charged £640, first time ever I have had a reduction in premium.

Are you not loosing out on money by not having bought one yet, also a chipper? if not think of all that time you could have saved

Josh, are you just straight out of college or have you experience in tree work?? If you've done a few years, you should know the answers to these questions pal.

 

You don't need to analyse every single thing on a truck or chipper or any machine for that matter.

 

If a Landy is the cheapest to insure, buy the best one you can afford and start putting it to work mate 😃
