[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 48136, member: 307"] I think it reall depends on your area. Locally I know it is hard to line up jobs so I can go from one to the next. If I only make 65 for loading going to and from unloading etc, it is just not enough. That is why most work with a 3 or 4 hour minimum rate. Typically even if the job only takes a hour for a skid it is already far too big to do by hand. If it is going to cost you 250 to hire a skid or you are going to work all day to save the 250 many will pay it. If not why go in the hole just to do someone a favour unless you get one back someday. I try to sell the customer other services, like maybe tilling the garden, mowing some brush or grinding a stump or two. That way I can get my minimum and they can get their moneys worth.
