What were they bidding on?
I had a fairly standard tree-trimming job, removing dead limbs from a
large silver maple and cleaning up some debris. So I get a couple of bids from local companies on doing the work, such things are usually within a fairly small range of each other. One gives me a bid for $450 (about what I'd expect). The other, bids $2500. What! Five times the other? I read the bid sheet, they had the correct job described, the right tree indicated, the correct address, all that. Needless to say, they didn't get work. I thought about calling and seeing what on earth they based that on, but in the end didn't bother. Brian |
