  1. 3 blokes with chipper + getting rid of chip etc. How much do you reckons a fair price for a days work.?

    Been doing this a fair few years now and beginning to think i'm too cheap - get 9/10 jobs i quote for ( in a small area - south west eng) and running costs etc going up daily beginning to think its time to charge more for work!

  2. I always do written quotes for jobs that are a days work or more. Its a pain in the arse to do but makes it easier in the long run. you can refer customer to quote if they get funny or try it on (as is quite common). Had a bloke accuse me of stealing his ash logs once so got him to read back the quote to me over the phone- he quickly apologised. 'removal of all wood from site'.

    Be worth billing the person who wanted the tree down for the time you spent doing half the tree. A builder or plumber wouldn't think twice about doing it.

  3. anyone know of any kind of roof racking that you can get for a toyota hilux ?- would be handy for putting ropes, saws , blower etc in if truck is packed full of timber or chip. have seen little roof bars but they don't look much good for anything....

    Any suggestions..?
