When I got in the game back in the late 80's, concrete contractors weren't keen on paying for a concrete pump for placement.

For what pumps cost an hour, I can understand why they didn't want to use them.

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

I think I just paid $330.00 per hour for a 42 meter boom pump the other day. We placed 160 yards of concrete in 4 hours, but they charge for 30 minutes before concrete arrives and 30 minutes for clean up after concrete too, so there's an hour.

The company I use used to have a different price structure. It was like $250 per hour, with a 4 hour minimum and like $2 per yard that it pumped. Now it's a flat rate. Cost of doing bidness. I factor it into every job.

Sorry I missed the big day Mark, the missus had me busy cleaning house. Hope you had a good one and were no-where near any concrete! I'll have a drink tonight for you when I get home.
Cheers, Craig |
