Hey all

Anyone know how much this would cost? I just want to take a layer off, get rid of the crap/weeds etc. Dumping isn't really an issue.

If you find a mate of a mate, you may be able to get away with it for about $50 an hour..

Im glad dumping* isn't an issue, otherwise I'd suggest prunes. :lol:

Cost would be around the $80 an hour and normally its a 3 hour min, and most charge 1 hours travel.

Have been doing all the figures as I am about to start up myself but will be about 4 weeks away (truck is still being painted) If you are in the northern suburbs and arent in a hurry we should be able to work something out. I will be charging $75 an hour and no travel charge for anywhere within 20kms of my place the rest lets talk.

It all sound dear until you go to kenards and they charge you $275 for a shovel on wheels that fits on a car trailer plus fuel, or you can get a normal sized machaine for about $290 a day but unless you have a truck you are up for $60 each way to get it to your place.
