[QUOTE="dirthog28, post: 43025, member: 5511"] Out of curiosity if Joe Blow the Homeowner calls up for gravel on their driveway do you guys refer them to the skidsteer guy just for his services to do the grading while your company still hauls the gravel to the homeowner or does the skidsteer guy do all the hauling and spreading. The problem I always have with driveway jobs is there is always somebody that will lowball with an Old 8N tractor and grader blade or think they can spread it good enough with a truck. I always figure in taking my skidsteer with me even if I or the Quarry spread it there'a always something that needs touched up. You say the guy just shows up and spreads the gravel, so does he go ahead time to see how much gravel or if he can even get a truck into the customers drive. Does the guy charge any minimums to show up even if it only takes a hour to spread out. I like the idea of charging by the Ton but what if he only spreads 10TN vs 50TN, does he price breaking according to tonnage. I like to do driveway jobs but seems nobody wants to pay for it. [/QUOTE]
