Hello dear forum,
Today we received an offer from a civil engineer for the excavation.
His task is to shovel the earth onto semi-trailers. The semi-trailers are provided by the landfill.
The civil engineer does not charge his work performance as usual, but takes €5 per ton of earth.
For us, that is 1000t, so €5000 plus VAT.
That sounds much too expensive for us, considering he wants to shovel for 2 days.
I researched on the internet that excavator and driver cost a maximum of €1000 per day.
Therefore, the question arises whether he also wants to make extra profit from our earth or if the €5/ton or €5000 is justified?
