    Yards...

    Got a yard at the minute which is pay as you go £20 to tip a full load of greenwaste on the burnsite and price on logs depends to how many loads go up there and can use the farmers tractor for £6 an hour with the hi crack to process them, can't take any chip there.. He lives on site so have a few rules.. New yards come up which belonged to a friend in the business who is packing up at £216 a month not hard standing has a burnsite farmer just let's you crack on do what you want within reson but no tractor use for processing wood but it comes with my pals 5years worth of logs that he's taken in there.. Can also take as much chip in there as you please.. Keep both? one for decent wood where the tractor is and all the shite softwood to the new one and burn? Decisions!

  10. A few people seem to think I'm aiming to rip them off all I'm asking is what sort of money someone would put on there normal price 51 replies later someone says 25%.. Question answered without all the nit picking/assumptions etc. Thanks for input from most of you others just remind me why I haven't bothered posting or visiting the site for around a year chow fellas.
  11. Obviously not going to go in with a stupid price but just working out what to put on tip of everyday prices for nature of job etc. Cheers
  12. Normally but I'm the contractor for all this company's sites the sent me an order for works before I'd even seen anything, when I called them and said ill sort out a price they said price is irrelevant just bill us. It's a big company.
  13. 4 figures then.. Lovely
  14. My 390 is doing exactly the same and the fuel is fresh.. I'm going to take it into the local stihl gaff to get it sorted.. I'll let you know what there saying, hoping to get there tomorrow.
  15. Got there at 3 alone gets dark at 4, every now and then you get a job which you over think but in my opinion it's safer considering every possibility. Been told price is irrelevant.. What sort of figures would you boys charge? Emergency job etc. Cheers
  16. Plus I was alone
  17. Gets dark at 4 only got there at 3ish
  18. Not sure on measurements but mine take 12-15 split logs.

  21. The bottom half is straight forward but there is 15-20ft of top over the roof it's getting it down without it going through the roof. No access for even a small picker
  22. Aspestos roof and that oil tanker at the base got a few figures in mind if any of you fancy putting in a ball park one or two that would be good. Cheers
