Tracked or towable Chipper hire required?

Posted by Graeme @ BGS on July 10, 2014 at 4:44pm

Bit of a long shot but my client requires a beefy chipper (150mm or more) for a day.

He has purchased a section of next doors garden which has been untouched for a few years. We have cut back all the old hedges etc. to make way for fencing and felled three old apple trees. The trees will be logged so it is just rather a lot of branches and bits of other green waste to dispose of.

Client keen to move very quickly as he has a dance studio being built in the next 2 to 3 weeks. So hence a beefy chipper to clear up the waste quickly so that we can undertake phase 2 of the ground prep.

I can hire one from HSS Onecall for the weekend but if anyone has one and would like a days work (client wants the chippings) it would make more sense to pass this on. Failing that I will probably use Farnborough Tool Hire I think they are around £200 a day less trade discount.

Access is via a field (about 400 yards from main road ground is firm and no issues to tow the machine over) to the back of his garden. Might to able to gain access via next door if we ask nicely and take their fence down!

Job is in Mytchett (near Farnborough).

Please PM me if interested.

Many thanks

    FTH has quoted approx. £260 Incl. VAT and delivery / collection for a days hire for their Tracked 6in Chipper but would prefer to part with my clients money to an LJN member if anyone is keen?
