Truck and person wanted subbie basis

[Treeworld]

Very occasionally the need arises for a boxed transit or equivalent and person on site, so the request is anyone based in kent with this and also must have carriers license and PLI. PM with your required day rate based on 8 hours per day on site and removal of waste per load.

when u say waste what u mean wood chip or other?

[Treeworld]

woodchip and timber generally all waste from a dismantle of tree. 90% of the time i convince client to lose on site or burn. I use skips when it needs to go and chip straight into them, as a transit for me is not a necessity I would rather be able to give a lower price and also give someone some work too.

What woudl the 8 hours on site involve, chipping and carrying logs, or just waiting for your guys to fill the truck then driving?

I'm sorry but! You don't have the facilities to remove from site so you want to offer that as a service but get someone else in to do it, and they must have their own PLI!!! AND you want them on site for 8 hours so that means the actual drivign away of the waste (which is why you want them there in the first place) has to be done on their own time plus disposal. You don't want much do you!

 

And I'm guessign this is so that you can undercut companies that do offer this cervice and look as though your providing a complete tree service all the while!.

 

ANd on the pretence that your helping some one out with work! I think your actually depriving some one better suited of work.

 

MAkes me MAD!!!!

its not any diferent from someone subbing in climber. i know guys that run companies that no nothing of the trade, thats why they employ folk. i was told by a very wealthy man once, that the secret to making money is to pay someone far more inteligent and skilled less money than you earn yourself. just my 2p:cool1:

Indeed Stevie,

 

But if you are the one with the skill or the equipment, why line someone else's pocket??

 

When I was a subie climber I only ever climbed for "real" tree firms, but as I got more skilled and was making them more coin I wanted more, the did not want to pay it, so I set up on my own.
