angelsephemera Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 If anyone has a breaker or good hammer drill they could rent me for a day I will pay happy to pay a few hundred baht. I am here for one job only and am loathe to buy power tools i have no store for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyecatcher Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 How about digger and tipper self drive vehicles?They are all out around the artery roads, for example between maya/tesco and samoeng intersection down the river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelsephemera Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Yes- you can definitely rent these at good rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccw Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 When I enquired before they wanted to hire with a driver and the rates were high. Like 10k per day. More than it cost me to hire a self drive in UK for a week. Be interested to hear specifically a place for self drive and what rates are on offer- per week. ? I am thinking to buy and sell after done- since quite a lot to do and can take it at a more leisurely pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelsephemera Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) sorry, in fact i don't know- i assumed you could rent without driver at the same rates as Bangkok. There is some plant parked on the road near me, obviously for rent, I'll ask if they'll do self drive.

mccw Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I could drive around many more; I see a lot places with plant parked up but where I went and from talking to a few it seemed it was either for sale or rent with driver only. My in laws say because companies worry thier kit might get nicked and no one take responsibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyecatcher Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I wouldn't let someone untried and qualified wreck my 5 million baht machine, would you? That aside imagine the havoc caused if you are the one pulling up sometimes drain,or taking down the electric pylon. Pay for the driver who has the skill and expertise and the insurance.

mccw Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Driver with Insurance; haha In England I can rent the machine £180 per week. Self drive. I have done many jobs with this before, Its not much more tricky than driving a car The main reason I want to do myself , other than cost, is because the hired drivers are not care what mess they make. I can be careful and move trees for example rather than destroy them. I wouldn't let someone untried and qualified wreck my 5 million baht machine, would you?

angelsephemera Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 aye- do the job yourself if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccw Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hello I found a place that rents the machine with driver for 3500bht per day. Can PM me if anybody wants the number. This is a much more reasonable price than the around 10k I was getting quoted before. Swings the equation away from buying for me.
