Re: Weekly cost!!
Already had been ![]() I'm going for 8'3 wheel nut. OP, insurance will depend on a lot, how long you have traded, which I'm guessing is no time, that will make it more expensive than someone who has history. Drivers, are you in Newcastle of London, there is a big difference, TM, bit of you get what you pay for and how much do you want him/her to do - the bare minimum or lavish some extra care.
Re: Weekly cost!!There are many variables to take into account with all these figures, but a very rough ballpark weekly costing based on my own experience would be:
Driver (5 days including employers NI and pension) - £900 Insurance - £50 Goods in transit insurance - £50 Accountancy - £50 Transport manager - £100 Maintenance contract - £100 GPS System - £5 Operating Centre - £100 Plus your variable costs for fuel and tyres
Re: Weekly cost!!Insurance between 5k and 9k per year
Accountant £500 to £1000 per year , use quick books brings the cost down Tyres £20 per week Out sourced Tm £250 to £350 per month Operating centre between £20 and £50 per week 6 weekly inspection around £ 150
Re: Weekly cost!!have TM for free, inspections for 80, but greed when they want charge me 100/week for parking is killing my business plan...

Re: Weekly cost!!
Although expensive at £100pw, if parking at that rate is killing your business plan id say you have other problems. When i looked at outsourcing parking i was looking at £50pw with full washing facilities in the nottingham area. I decided to just keep it on the farm.
Re: Weekly cost!!Mines 125 a month with my own office/toilet/ portacabin for storage/water and electricity and 24/7 security patrol
Dont think thats too bad
Re: Weekly cost!!
Yea its not about that 30/40 a week extra but i wont pay 100 for principle as they will ask 150 next year if it will go this way! That one thing is holding me up realy...trying farm owners now... Should i mention i was quoted 100 per week just for unit place in Northampton with no gate, barier opened 24hrs...
Re: Weekly cost!!
I can only dream about this here...
Re: Weekly cost!!
Same here. I’m paying £600/month for yard space only for 2 trucks.
Re: Weekly cost!!I persuaded my customer of the benefits of having our trucks ready to load at their premises and that became my operating centre
