Four Pops

[Frank]

£1600, Its hard to see the size of the dropzones from those pics but with those caravans and the phoneline I'd have three days on it I think. If it could be done in 2 days then £1100.

 

£1050 then:001_tongue:

I,m reckoning on 5 days. Myself, the wife/groundie and Rich Rule hired in for three days. I think Rich and I will share the climbing, the Mrs. on the chipper and two days grace.

Make it as many days as there are loads of wood, then you only drive there and back once each day, no need for an extra person on site when the truck is away.

 

If you have the means to fit two trees worth of wood on one truck then its a two day job, even if that means getting an extra climber. Removing debris/logs/chips is waht costs time and money.

 

The Mewp idea is daft, why give some of the profit away to another company. Getting them on the floor is not a result, all wood off site is the result your after.

 

If it were all staying on site then you could charge more per day but take less days.

I'm confused, is it 3 or 4 pops?

The mewp idea was from an owner of a mewp

What you going to do with the wood as it's the worst wood in the world for burning. I managed to get rid of mine, but it was difficult, no where will take sponges, i mean pop off my hands.

if u got room hire in 34m platform ......£300.......u could get them all down in day and chip up at ur leisure, did 3 down to ground level chipped by 3pm last friday . u be surprised with good operator what u will get done.

 

But the suggestion was to hire one in.

Not if you own the mewp.

 

Risk of damage is huge on that job, you could always give some of the profit away to the telephone company to put the wire back up rather than the mewp company

 

Using a mewp puts the risk down to zero
