QUESTION:Just got a bit of construction plant & equipment that will be cleaned
& resprayed when I've finished with it, before paying it back into the
ebay recycling bank.
Used Clemco units seem to go for up to 500 which is pretty pricey for
a beefed up dustbin !
ANSWER: Nothing wrong with that.
Just looked on the hire Co site and found out that a 6HP shredder cost
120 per week or 60 per weekend.
Bought one off Ebay for 140 a while ago so that doesn't owe anything
by the time you have taken the diesel out for the tip.
Looking round for a whacker plate at the moment, Mother in Law is
leaving a bulge in the lawn.................
I've got a Wacker DPU 2440F diesel forward / reverse plate that weighs
in at 144Kgs that is one of the bits of plant that will be re-cycled
eventually - if you can collect and return you are very welcome to
borrow it for a week or two but I'll need it for re-laying the
workshop floor.
Experience has shown if you need to rent more than twice it's cost
effective to buy.
I once rented a mag drill for a weekend to do some mods in a company
when they were closed down. 75.00 for the weekend, then they had me
back a couple of weeks later just to do another mod, another 75.00.
A month lather they called again, I managed to buy a secondhand one in
time for 300 but really it had cost 450.
I still have it and when I was doing site work I charged it out at 75
which is what I would have had to pay.
