nick channer replied to Matthew Storrs's topic in Business Management
this is correct.. i bought a 90 land rover with no vat.. went to sell it to large landrover dealer and they told me cant charge vat if didnt pay it even if i'm vat registered.. -

i charge £80 for 1.3-1.5m3... [bucket is 1.3m3 but depending how hard you push it into heap and how careful you are about level filling it can go up to 1.5m3].. does seem a builders bag of any size does get a premiumn... they sell 1.2m3 bags for £100 round here....

ha... yeah your not wrong...... as soon as she said who it was yesterday i knew what was coming...... "£80 a load, that seems alot"... she says.. same as last yr and yr before i says.... which she was happy with..... i expect the husband went to pub last nite which is a stones throw away and someones given him a number...... when i asked her how much she was buyin she didnt no what to say......

just had call from customer who ordered a load [1.3m3] fom me yesterday... been takin wood there on and off for prob 10 yrs... she asked how much... i said same as last yr and the yr before..... she ordered it yesterday for sat delivery and has just said can she cancel as her husband has had cheaper price from somewhere else.. i said no problem, but they have no idea how much there gettin, all they no is its a pickup load... these people live in great big house worth over 750k and they are always tryin to screw the last penny out of anything i've ever done for them... trees hedges, skips, logs... i've had enough and told her to delete my no and not ring me again.......

we dont own a towable chipper.. was sayin with a towable one and 2 trucks we'd do same job in extra day.... so to me havin all the big gear has only saved around £600... mog wont use 100lites diesel in the 2 days we're ther and fastac prob same.... so cheaper prob than runnin transits back and forth on white...[we have left both vechles on site mind]
