you have to pay to park on every job..?

must be a different world living in the smoke, I just park on the customer driveway..lol
[MENTION=19139]andy allen[/MENTION] Park on the drive? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
well if they're lucky enough to have a drive, it'll be used to either park skip or as rubbish tip awaiting nxt pick up. Parking can run from £18 - £43 a day no problem. A lot do get permits for contractors it works out cheaper. Some boroughs don't have them tho. It's park and pay simple as, even if it's your own family haha. A garage has just been sold in London for £400,000 YES 400 Grand. Enough money to park in a nearby secure underground car park for 31yrs! So yeah I charge parking haha

Edit:
just as an example, I recently did a 9 day straight job in High Holburn WC1. Parking and congestion charge came to £396! And that's HALF day parking Sat and NO parking Sun and NO congestion charge Sat & Sun. So those charges are for 7.5 days! So yeah things can be different here. Haha
