it is $85/hr from time of call to time of knock off. and i pay for fuel.
on the diesels i use around 1 gallon per hour, gas trucks use around 2 gallons per hour.
if i am working for the town, i have a set section of a 11 miles of total roadways.
if i am working private, there is not much travel time, cause we are given a group of sites all within 1 mile of each other.
the private trucks do apartment complexes and industrial complexes.
i refuse to do residential work. homeowners are azzes.
