What\'s the going rate?
Hello everyone!!!!!!!
I have a great opportunity to do some work on the side. It will include tractor work (backhoe, grading, chipping, moving stones etc.), brush cutting (with a walk behind brush cutter and harness trimmer type), chain saw work to supplement the bruch cutting, and hand work seeding small areas of grass maybe even some field stone work. I was wondering how much to charge and how to beak it up. How much for the tractor? Should it vary with the type of implements? Should I use the hour meter on the tractor for tractor time. How much for the walk behind brush cutter? How much for manual labor?I know rates vary across the counrty. It would be nice to know rates from other parts of the counrty. I'm from VT. I would like to stay way from a flat rate to do the job due to the complexity of the job, lack of estimating skills and that it is a job that may last all summer.
Thanks for your help, again!!
