I have registered. I have a waste carriers licence. My local tips charged me between £6-£8 for a ton bag of garden waste. I was wondering how much I would charge on top of that per bag for customers? I have to consider the time to drive it and move the rubbish. I can get two bags in my...

I just took a ton bag full of garden waste to my local tip and they charged me £6. A heavy one would probably be £8. How much should I charge per bag to customers? I can take 2 bags in my van.

Though a seeming simple job takes a bit of know how to overcome many of the varied types of background you come across. Age often brings experience [though not always]. Yeah on 5 days working alongside two guys- there are obstacles you need to get over, not that easy all the time and...

What sort of prices to people generally charge? I thought about the £18/hr and it wouldn't work for one hr so thought - £30 first hr then £20 second hr then £15/hr for all following hrs. Because being called out for an hr far away for £18 wouldn't work.

£120 or £130 sound ok for a day rate and £18/hr for hourly rate. These flats are quite a drive in my van (40 mins one way)- do those prices sound fair? It's pressure washing, gardening, painting, carpentry stuff for them. It's a bit out of town so there's lots of older rich people and no...

They want to pay me £5 a blind. Would doing the one day benefit my skills much ? Couldn't I pick up decorating customers through the window cleaning as well? Out of interest, if I was to fit blinds myself, not through them (Hilary's) what company should I use? Hilary's have a side company...

You do, they just don't tell you.

I quoted £60 for 4 hrs work/weekly- just quickly said this over the phone to a lady (off the top of my head) Is this reasonable or should I ask for a bit more? say £80? I have public liability insurance. The thing is it will be a 30 min drive each way as well. A guy just called me back and...

Perfect. I guess it's just a case of selling it to someone. Maybe I didn't sell it to my gardener friend well enough. He didn't reply. Will text him again. If there are other jobs is it worth asking on Gumtree if my contacts aren't interested? Carpentry or landscaping work probably. I just...

How u do this ? Spirit level. Get ground level underneath etc

I will pay whoever helps me. Why wouldn't they want to help? If can't get anyone. I guess it's stringing 2 foot holes and spirit level. Will just cracking on with it myself. Ask someone on Gumtree?

Maybe but surely some advertising is better than no advertising

The van I will get in 3 months will be a Peugeot Expert 2005. Shall I get the 60cm x 40cm or the 25cm x 40cm magnetic signs ? The smaller one will go on car rear doors. I guess same on vans. Two I guess one on each door
