Terrain is different stuff to the domestic pvc stuff, v expensive! Although it’s all silly money these days!
don’t know if anyone else is struggling to quote for jobs on fixed prices , everything is going up between quotes and invoicing!!

More likely to be 8m3 loads.. 568m3!! I’ve done some huge footings in the past, but never that much in one day, mostly because it’s alot to dig/pump out when it rains and falls in

back in '07 steel was going up every couple of days ... I was quoting work with a week's validity on material costs
had a quote from a stockholder I used to use last week for 4.5t of stuff ... some for a couple of things I have lined up and some for 'stock' ... no validity dates on it, but I'll bet I need to get it ordered sooner rather than later

the 50 x 50 x 3 is £4.95/M ... not far off the right sort of level paid I'd say if that's a 4' x 3' pallet, but on the right side for LL .... circa 12m of 50 x 50 x 3 SHS there - 55-60 quid .... the PDF I attached above'll give people a pretty fair idea on figures £1090/t averaged across sections/flats/angles/hollow sections ..... pretty fair prices from Roger, TBF
