When i tried to get a quote from direct line, they said they do not offer comercial policies.

Yeah, i wonder how some are booked up 4 to 6 months agead. When i tell a customer anymore than 3 or 4 weeks, they baulk. Sorry for derail. I'm suprised that you have a problem righting the 4x4 off as business. might pay to double check that in the industry you are in.

Sorry to hear of your brother. As Goaty says, it will make you alot more flexible, split into 2 teams, with a trailer be able to cart loads away on those big jobs. I always prefer 2 vehicles but only you know if it will suit your business model. Good luck

I took down a monster of a beech tree this week and mate helped me with his new 395 with 30" bar. I had a go and absolutely loved it. Did not notice it to be vibey. Prefered using his 395 over my 088!

Of course, no estate or woodland owner are going to give away their harvest, I was trying to explain simply rather than go into it. That work can be done for the timber.

That should be in the 'quotes you like' thread.

It can work IC. Of course forestry is doing that always. I agree though IC, it rarely works in arb.

I would guess there is 4 or 5 ton there. At say £40 a ton roadside = £200. And u dont have to haul it out rear garden, clear brush and leave neat and tidy. I do love these adds.
