  1. Hey guys bit of a long shot but does anyone have any empty herbicide bottles for a project I’m doing. So far I have about 9 brands of glyphosate. I’m looking some Kerb Flo all sizes of bottles Gem or Propyz Anything would be grate and I’m willing to pay postage. Cheers guys
  2. Looking for experienced tree planters for woodland creation sites in Aberdeen. Get in touch for more details
  3. Hi Guys, im looking at having 500m of deer fence done on a flat restock site. Iv had 2 contractors give me prices one was astronomical and the other was way lower. can anyone let me know what going rates are for following please. 500m of deer fence top and bottom rylocks (price per metre) price for putting in strainers and turners and price for hanging a steel entry gate.
  4. Can you send me some salary info please Jude?
  5. Sorry. West coast of Scotland and borders
  6. Trees just planted and left as Is. Good thoughts on the 3/4 soft wood plants though. Ideally I’d like a day at it to see what I could get in
  7. This is a foot in the door for me job. It’s a massive site with a 3/5 year contract for work in all there’s only 3000 hand mounds to be done which in the grand scheme of things probably worth the hassle for long term benefits. Just trying to devise a fair price which isn’t gonna cost me
  8. Well given the ground I’d have thought least they could do was let us screef it but apparently has to be mounds. We have an Argo and an access ride above, below and across area needing done. Size of mounds roughly an a4 sheet of paper size would probably do. Really struggling to come up with a price I was thinking anywhere between £0.70-£1.20 But that’s a stab in the dark
  9. It’s pretty rocky a machine wouldn’t get anywhere near. The section needing done is on the planting plan so I’m guessing it’s gonna need something in it for grant purposes. Personally I’d screef it plant the trees then look at potentially chemical weeding next year but I’m only paid from the neck to the deck so my opinion doesn’t count [emoji23][emoji23]
  10. If only life was that easy I’d maybe have two coffees [emoji23][emoji23]
  11. I had put the idea of using a mattock to clear vegetation then plant tree but estate wants mounds done by hand. I maybe just go with a ridiculous price so they don’t give me it. [emoji23][emoji23]
  12. This is the hill where digger could reach.
  13. Haha seaside sounds pretty decent this is on side of a mountain. [emoji23]
  14. Just a quick question to see if anyone knows how much it would be to hand mound. I can remember doing it back in the early 2000s and I’m pretty sure it was 50p per mound........... does anyone know if this is still the case?
  15. Tree planters wanted from January to work on various sites competitive rates DM for info
  16. I have a client who is needing 3acres of spruce needing felled and stacked ASAP in the Perth and Kinross area. Pm if interested.
  17. I have an abundance of tree stakes all variety of sizes also have tubes all sizes and I’m wondering where’s the best place to sell them Iv tried gumtree with no joy and eBay charge an arm and leg to sell off. Anybody help out here??
  18. Experienced tree planters wanted. Based all over Scotland. Pm me for details and rates
  19. Does anyone know what’s made this?? It’s in the Perth and Kinross area of Scotland
  20. Haha that guy lived 20 miles away so imagine his profit
  21. Yeah I spoke to a guy who said it would be roughly 75p per tree and guard. The guy who came round quoted £800 to be done in one day.
  22. Yeah we have trees ordered and bought the shrub guards which I think are half the size of the 1.2 tubes. (Roughly)
