Man and chipper hire rugby

[Jammydogg]

Afternoon team,

 

I'm on the brink of needing to buy a chipper, it's a big investment for me, so I'm thinking of utilising it to do man and chipper hire, I will charge £150 a day, which includes taking away 1load of chip....is that reasonable do I think? Just after some advice/feedback from you gents on here who also do the hire.

 

Many thanks

Jamie

Bit cheap bud when a climber can get that with climbing kit and a topper.

 

Not that I'd be complaining.

 

I can think of a few that would probably use you.

Jus gettin the feelers out there init. £250 for you joe 😜

[Joe Newton]

Fair does, I'll send you out on your tod to do a £600 job

If you're chipping all day you'll use 30 quids worth of fuel, blades, etc.

 

In short much too cheap for a chipper AND operator.

I agree with Mick and Joe Dogg, £250/day would be what I'd be looking for to top the diary up.

Appreciate your info Mr Demps and Bo-Dogg, when you put it like that, £250 seems reasonable. Maybe £200 if it's not a big pile/not chipping all day

I used to do it at £35 a hr for chipping + £1 a mile travelling there and back. Winter only. NO OLD stuff that had been in a pile for years either haha. Min 2hrs.

 

Did well and picked up lots of other work as well.

Chip on price only, as you'll regret 8 hours solid chipping for £150, or even £250. Imo a whole day chipping no questions asked would need to be £500+VAT

[Mark Bolam]

No one would seriously pay that though Billy.

Be nice, like.

£150k a year.
