I find it laughable that people moan about the cost of damage to a hire machine?? If you break you pay, maybe find out how much teeth are before you hire it. Buy a can of red diesel and re fill it yourself. A hire machine still has to be paid for. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

I have used Orange plant for 12 years, always been spot on, helpful staff, good service. I get a call maybe twice a year from the sales side asking if I need anything, nothing wrong with that. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Hey can keep there work. If I Finnish a job I want paying, I don't mind waiting a week or 2 but that's it. I don't see why the would hold money back if you have done the work? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

I just got asked to tender for a job on a new housing development. There was quite a bit of work. I read all the tree report and no big deal there but upon reading the terms and conditions you find that payment will be at least 61 days from completion and they will withold a certain percentage until they are happy with what you have done. I declined the offer. I don't see why I should wait to be paid for that length of time. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

First of all try Trust 01604 492644 they can help with all insurance and are very reliable. Yes you can insure firewood but of course it will cost. Have you worked out your costings of employing someone to process and sell your wood? Are you buying the timber in? I ask this as firewood on a small scale and employing someone to do it really doesn't make much if any money when you work out all the costings. Good luck anyway. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

How much has the wood cost. How much has it cost to process, how much to deliver. In all this you should account for fuel,ach inert depreciation, wages and profit. Then see what the figure is and add profit. That's how much you need to sell for. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Get an advert on sell and seek or local paper, people will buy it. The guy wanting an incentive to buy it now or wait for dry stuff sounds like the type of customer I won't sell too. Lol, god I'm a grumpy bugger, can't be arsed with people like that. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

None. Why give it away, you still gotta move it and split it and deliver it. That's why the firewood market is on its knees, to many people flogging it cheap. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

IMO never give jobs away, it can come back and bite you. Get someone in under your direction to do it and make you some money. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

No I'm not vat reg Chris. They are a great machine, I love mine. I don't do loads of stumps but the ones I do are easy no matter what size. I did a 4ft chestnut in a couple of hours moving and cleaning up and taking all the grindings away. That was one of the longer grinds. I did a 2 ft as in about 30 mins start to finish. It really is a good machine. Speak to Dean at global. Top guy. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
