You know PennDOT subcontractors made a killing. Went out 3 times and still got paid BID price for the whole season. Im trying to price my way out of it and go to work for someone elselike the airport or a mall, but them guys are brutal with rates and time delayed payment.I know guys who are willing to ...... push for 25 hr.
How can you compete w/ that?

Malls and such are the places to get because they want plowed every inch or so and salted every.5" or so. Like you said, they are bad with delayed pay and such. At the price of fuel if you are runnin diesel equipment you can't compete with 25/hr. I don't know how much you charge per hr., but I know I charge a lot more than 25 per hr. I either low with my truck, skidloader, or both depending on the lot. PennDOT subcontractors always make a killin. What do they care, it OUR tax dollars at work.

Rodger that. Buck and a quarter per 1/2 hr. for big plow/spreader + material.

Loader 250 per 1/2 hr. You know , when the poop hits the fan during the next major crippler, that should separate the men from the boys .

Yeah, it will. For the truck I charge 75-80 per hr. The skiddy is about the same, little more or less depending. I kinda want one more BIG snow this year. make a little green.
