Van and chipper with operator what is the going day rate?

[HoneyMonster]

Hello good people of the forum,

 

I need your sound advise and wisdom yet again. I need the services of a self employed man / woman with van and chipper setup but I don't know what the going day rate should be, its going to be in Worcester City and I do have a drop site for chip sorted. Someone willing to give me insight. Better yet if anyone is interested in the job please get on touch. It would be for two maybe three days with the possibility of future work based in the Worcestershire area.

I would say around £300, although I'm sure you'll find plenty who would take less.

£300 sounds pretty reasonable to me, but a quick trawl on the likes of eBay confirms that you'll find many working for a lot less.

Hi mate,

We've got two teams that work out of south BHAM ( I'm on holiday for the next fortnight ) I'll PM you a number to phone we might be able to work something out.

Thanks, Timon

You would be better off getting a price for the job, day rate doesn't mean a lot as it depends what size chipper and truck etc they are bringing to the job.

GregM that's pretty sound advise thanks, I didn't truly think of it like that. If I get any bites I might well get them to come and see job with me and then talk money.

 

Cheers guys for the advise.

They'll need to know how quick and efficient your climbers and groundies will be on the day as well then.

 

It's not easy!

Hi HM,

We are based in Worcestershire and would be happy to quote for the job.

Did you get the PM I sent you with contact details?

 

Thanks,
