    Going back to earlier posts, if I got back in the game so to speak, my winter months are covered, I have work from November till end of April time, so 6 months. It's only another 6 months that I need to find work. Grass cutting, hedges and some tree clearances etc. Not confident enough to do landscape gardening yet as in paving and fences! But that ain't too bad right? Only 6 months work to find? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Thanks guys, I had a Renault kangoo before years ago. Very good motor. Didn't need to tow anything though. What's the tax on one? £125? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Hi all, I have a bog standard car at the moment, if I make the jump and start my own business what should I be looking at. I prune orchards in the winter months and it can be sticky sometimes with no 4x4 but that's not too much of an issue as most places do have proper tracks. My business would be garden work with garden waste clearance and tree waste. Wondered about a van to store all tools in, but then a 4x4 and a trailer would be good for clearance too. Also want the cheapest running cost option [emoji849] Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Is it true if you have a climber working for you, the person on the ground (me) has to be qualified to get up the tree if there is an accident? If so this could be a massive cost lol Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    What's the going rate for a grass cutter now a days? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  20. AdamL
    What sort of yearly income do you think I can get doing gardens and garden clearance etc with odd tree jobs thrown in. Will driving between jobs be a bad factor, for example charging an hourly rate yet half the day spent driving a lot of miles and realising I've only raked in £80 while used x amount of fuel? Love this forum it's so good [emoji1360] Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    No problem mate that's what I want, someone to say how it is! That's what I was thinking, it's gonna take me a month if Sunday's to even prepare a decent load of logs for say 3 deliveries lol. Just testing all areas [emoji16] Thankyou Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Thankyou. Is business going well for you? Obviously the wood will need to stand for a year so I will have a whole year of no income while possibly paying out to rent some land for the wood. Just working out if it's worth while. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
