3 tonne excavator hire machine only by the hour

[theboytheboy]

I have a tenant who lets us use his 3 tonne kubota when its not on a job.

We make sure we look after it and always return it greased, fueled up and generally tidier than it was when we receive it.

We often only use it for a few hours here and there and then sometimes may use it for a full day or two.

I would like to pay for the use as don't like taking advantage. I thought I could make a note of the machine hours and pay per hour of use.

What do you think is a fair price? bearing in mind we dont have to pay for transport but equally cant plan work as don't know when it may or may not be available

Thanks

Have a look at local hire companies and take their day rate and make adjustments from there. Think £75 is about the going rate.

I hire out a 1.5 tonner at £10 per clock hour. Not making much at that but it’s only to a select few who treat it like there own.

Can hire a 1.8t machine for £300 a 7 day week includes trailer for picking up and dropping off through one of the big hire companies. No point buying one at that money

That would be lovely, thank you. And if you want to borrow it again just let me know.
