Cost to chip cut down hedge

[Jamiedownes]

Hi anyone give me a ball park figure of what it would cost to chip a leylandii and Laurel hedge that I've just cut down , to give you an idea of size it was about 12 feet high and 10 feet wide total 40 feet long.

 

I'm in hinckley leicestershire - if anyone's local maybe they could quote for the job - just trying to weigh up if it's cheaper to chip or cart it to the tip in a hired pick up

£230 per load minimum charge, approximately 5m3. no drag out. Breakdown of costs....90 for 2 people for one hour. Then 140 for fuel, time and dump costs

Totally agree.

Hello,

When a client asks me how much to chip a tree or hedge IF they cut it down I tell them the same price as if you had got me to do the whole job.

Besides, I add, "just where are you going to put this hedge/tree in the mean time?" as I look around their tiny suburban garden.

Far easier, safer and less stressful to chip material as it's cut.

Otherwise it can be like playing 'pickup sticks' with your arse cheeks!

nightmare chipping somebodys elses brash heap, unless they have it drummed into them how to prepare and stack for a chipper its a pig.

 

could treat it as a learning experience, hire a chipper and pull apart your heap and not so prepared material and see how much hard work it is, sure teaches you that its not how to prepare for chipper and means if you have need of somebody in future it stacked perfectly.

It's like when another person had done a bad job and you come to sort it out. Think of a number and double it...at least because it will be a pigs ear to sort.

No your right jonny and if I was passing I would have a look and probably do it got the right money however I wont go and look at it as a job specially.

 

A bloke called me the other day saying "we have dug up a load of bushes in our front and back garden how much to get rid" I told hom to get a skip in.
