never saw a tractor near a building site in the dirty south,must be a northern thing
down here it would be grabs or a skip
cheers LLL
Cheers lll.
Actually though its a South Wales thing.
There are plenty here who do use grab lorries but this works for me. loading as your excavating. More importantly its cheaper £130 a load maybe 14-16T naturally inert only.
I reckon the law are going to clamp down on it sometime though.

there was a guy round here carting with a tractor and trailer. Turns out he had no waste licence, was failing to give the producer a waste transfer note, and had no operators licence for the tractor and trailer, and was subsequently fined up to the hilt.
They also came after the waste producer for not keeping records of where the waste was going.
they seem to be clamping down on it

A local farmer takes a lot of my clean waste soil/clay/rubble. Am I doing something illegal by doing this.

Yes. Do you have a waste carriers licence?

That concrete isn't worth a pecker, just get it going with the beaver and rip it up with a big digging bucket and load it away, using big lumps to break it up by dropping them onto the surface.

and if someone takes away your waste, you MUST get a waste transfer ticket. its all about regulating the industry

Unless it for agricultural application you can't run a tractor on red and on a normal license
If it's for hire or reward like he's doing for you then he needs to be on white, have a tachometer, have a waste license, an operator license, a class c license ( Hgv articulated) appropriate insurance and equivilant Hgv tax.
We only use our big john Deere and dump trailer for agricultural jobs 
Haha to be fair this last year I've not really mucked anything away in the tractor just because of needing waste transfer tickets and it being a pain in the arse, cheaper to get a grab or 8 legger in. I'll be outsourcing all our muck away from now on unless it's local and off the public highways

You can run a tractor with a front loader on red,but must be white if its pulling a trailer.
if you stick to B roads,generally no one bothers you.

Fair play for cracking on without any labour

Hey tony, I bet the plasterers love you, all those finished joints. Hope they give you a good price.
Have you lanced that pinch yet.

hehe it takes 5 minutes to ding up 15M2 of blockwork
so why not do it?
I generally leave the black man's pinch until the swelling goes,unless its one under the nail then the hot needle comes out :O
