    Curious what a pump truck runs you in BC. If running smoothly and maintained well, I hear those things print money.

    Baltimore/DC area is $200 mobilization (more if remote or access constraints), $850/hr, and $4/yard placed. And thats what we get as a high volume customer.

    Picked up a couple jobs (small porch/deck and some deck skirting) where the customers insist on PVC/Azek. I despise working with that stuff for all the obvious reasons. No way am I using my trim sliding miter saws. I padded one of the bids and picked up this 10" Metabo Miter Saw off Amazon for $119. Just made up this quick portable stand for it. I have a rolling outfeed stand I can use for any longer pieces. Sets up on saw horses. Two 2x3x8's and one 2x4x8 and a little hardware. $30.
