0 Adkat Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Onsite work in Aus is charged on hourly rate not by volume/ tonnage. I'd be talking to a couple other contractors in your area. There's usually an unofficial local rate but it can vary depending on how many trucks are about and what the workload is, IE: If they need it moved asap, then they will usually pay a premium to pull trucks from other work to get it done. Are you running truck only, or with a dog/ pig trailer ( dunno what you call them over there) or semi tipper?

0 tjc transport Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 if it is a union job, it will be different pay rate for driver than just running loads down the road. up here in new jersey we are getting $100-$110 per hour for truck and driver.

0 Adkat Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Thats about our rate for a 10yrd body truck over here. Most jobs we work on minimum hours, usually 4hrs on construction jobs. Had too many contractors booking trucks and cancelling them when they got to site cause they weren't organised or couldn't read a weather forecast. Doesn't look as good when you convert it to US$ $110 Aus is $67.71US Dunno what your diesel prices are like over there now, we're paying $6.25 Aus/ gallon, so about $3.85US gallon Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75110-on-site-rate/#findComment-568459 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tjc transport Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 our diesel is about the same. if you shop you can find it for $3.25 aa gallon. if we show up on the job we are guaranteed 8 hours. a couple of me really good customers i will only charge 4 hours if the poo hits the fan very early in the day. boss in in agreement with whatever i do too. as he says, you are there, i am not. i trust your judgement. i also only charge him for those 4 hours if job is canceled. i also charge one way travel time if the job is more than 1 hour away, although the same guys i only charge 4 hours for early cancel cross out the one way travel and write in twice whatever i put down.
