  1. In the vans no issues at all, It's the site that bothers me, shouting like crazy and people not responding because they've got earphones in! A friend of mine was injured and couldn't get hold of his colleague due to earphones so for me they are a big no no on site

  6. stihl hla 86 is an extendable long reach trimmer and its all built in so no messing around with extensions etc ,highly recommend
  7. i have no idea to be honest ,ive gone gone down the hilux tippers/trailer route as i felt the 7.5t route would be too expensive especially as none of my team team have the license,
  8. tacographs,6-8 week inspections and there are fewer places that mot that size stuff, the 3.5t vans are always overweight though , no such thing as a perfect set up i guess, hilux and 3.5t trailer is great for logs/green waste//weight and if you have more vehicles to tow the chipper chippings aswell
  9. i agree with woody paul,use an under ground anchor system much easier and then your not looking at an ugly post either
  10. trust insurance are very good ,you can do everything through them which makes it a bit easier
  11. msa161t
  12. bf Goodrich on my hilux 5 years old and 45000 miles ,highly recommend
  13. thats what the nptc instructor told me yes,but what do they know
  14. thats what the nptc instructor me yes 🙄
  15. imo the best thing to do is do the next course up etc and then that refresh's all your old courses,ive got 30 31 38 and 39 but when i do 41 it renews them all so if you space out your next courses you would be doing something different and keeping up to date etc
  16. trust insurance are pretty reasonable
  17. or a schliesing 235?
  18. there's something i never thought i'd never hear anyone say!
  19. all my work is within 1/2 hr / 15 miles max,wont go any further
  20. i use both to be honest ,but mainly the wheel clamp at the jobs and both at the yard combined with the security post ive concreted in
  21. Anti Theft Products | Specialist Security Equipment Products | Lincmaster WWW.LINCMASTER.CO.UK We provide leading anti theft products and security solutions. From our innovative Hitchloks, to heavy duty security chains. We have you covered - Click here these are really good products that i would recommend, i used to use bulldog until we lost the keys ,we got it off using a long crowbar and sledgehammer in under a minute so not overly impressive!
  22. not in your area but my local timber merchant offered to buy oak planks off me for £100 each so might be worth you seeing whos local to you,many thanks andy
  23. bigger jobs monday to thursday and some smaller easier jobs til lunchtime on friday,if they finish all the jobs on the day they finish early on friday,been doing this for years and 90% of the time my guys finish 12-2pm on friday which they really appreciate ,especially those with kids who want to do the school pick up every now and then,already mentioned in the thead but again hot drinks/ food in the winter and cold drinks/ice cream in the summer really helps the team
  24. public and employers liability tool cover including chipper,tipper trailer microbull etc hired in plant cover 4.2k per year with arborisk
  25. good point, after mine was finished they sent me a new plate with the new weights on to show it can take 3.5t
