nationwide coverage

[IGK LANDSCAPING]

basically as the title says does any one work nationwide

how do you go about advertising work as not to appear like our travelling friends

is it easeier or harder to get work

how do you go about pricing a job at the other end of the country

 

any help appreciated

Morning, we have a train operating company (TOC) as a client. The work takes us all over their network. We price accordingly - based on travel time, work involved, whether it's at a weekend, number of men etc. Look to make savings such as disposing of arisings locally, maybe chip & broadcast on site.

Like herts wood we go all over the country working for commercial clients but I won't drive more than spitting distance from my house to price a job unless I know I'm going to get it

 

Unfortunately arb and landscaping is hardly specialist and when you travel miles for a new client its highly likely there's half a dozen other contractors who have been asked more locally who can do the more job far more cheap and efficiently.

Unless you offer something really niche like tree whispering.

lol thanks for the reply iam a approved installer of a few products may this help

I agree with rosesy web, sometime it's a gamble whether or not to travel miles to look at the job, we have an ace up the sleeve - we are the nominated vegetation specialist for the TOC, they don't use anyone else. We advise, offer guidance and suggestions, work on community projects and always get the work.
