  4. but.... is great for firewood deliveries though, used it a few times for work, reliablility is second to none, great turning circle, but not the most luxurious ride though but as john has said in his post Legally they have one of the best carrying capacities... all personal preference mate really... and i use a transit tipper in the week... may be an iveco tipper could be worth a look?

  11. just feel selling wet logs, delivering wet logs, doesnt look professional or give the best image.
  12. Evening all, I apologise if this has been mentioned befor etc, but when pricing jobs and the customer says, i would like you to do the work and go a head with the quote, but can i pay so much a month, is this a good idea in a sense? do any of you buisness owners do this? or tried this? or want som much of a percentage upfront? {deposit} and im guessing that i would have to look at getting a contract of some kind written up by a solicitor for legal reasons? i have a feeling this is more hassel than its worth in many respects but just thought i would ask the question for a bit of help and some feedback. many thanks
