Nope but may be looking at a motor up that way soon. You close to Moray?

Got plenty of those little beasts!
The trouble is getting them on site when the weather turns!



Do you have access to your own snow and ice gear? PM me if you do, and you want any more work this winter!

I got plenty access to snow and ice gear. I drive a gritter for the cooncil
From that wee tractor to a 6 wheeled bulk gritter. Oh,we've got those kinda wheel barrows with a spinner under them.
Theres a few local guys that do the local supermarket and ferry terminals.

Mind you,i do like that tow behind gritter,and i may know someone lookin for one

That's true! Many times last year I went to Tesco car parks near me to check conditions, only to find that after battering my way there that they were ploughed and gritted to perfection. They were generally empty of cars though, as only 4x4s could get there. It doesn't matter though, companies have to be seen to minimise public health risk, or pay the compensation. Tesco may well spend millions on snow and ice clearance but they won't get public liability insurance without it. The blame culture drives it.

That sounds like she has just the one tow-along machine! Her company currently have the contract for every Tesco in the UK (to name one client). We love ice and snow!

so at least tesco car parks will be gritted, shame nobody will be able to get there as the roads wont be

ha ha, thats brilliant. Where did you get it from ? do you do gritting for the local councils ?

The gritter really belongs to my wife! Her company grit the bits the council don't do: superstores, petrol stations, schools etc. I help out if I have to - usually if a local sub-con gets stuck in the snow!
