Hello everyone I was after some information about hedge cutting recommendations on tractor and trimmer and pricing.
Basically I would like to get to doing some hedge and verge cutting work probably a bit more as time goes on but for now that's what I'm looking at. Pricing wise i seen a list for contractors pricing recommendations and they put a hourly rate 48 pph and was wondering if that's realistic as I was talking to someone the other day who does contracting and he was saying that he charges 24pph and sends his bill now for last year's work is this normal procedure just seems a long time to wait until payment and when I said about the recommendations for pricing the answer i got was you can ask for what you want doesn't mean people will pay it which i get but any fool can be busy with work doesn't mean you are making any money.
So what i im asking is.
Is 48pph a good bench mark price
If I do get some work how long is normal to wait for payment.
And if you were starting from scratch what tractor and hedge cutter would you buy.
Thanks in advance
