How much should i charge???

[harradan]

Friend keeps her daughters horse at mine on DIY, daughter going to boarding school and friend has ask me how much would i charge to feed, muck out, turnout and rug change for 3 days of the week. I can do this but have no idea how much to charge her any suggestions please!!!

£50 per week

A rough idea would be £1 turnout, £5 muck out, £1 bring in. 7 days a week would be £49. You could put a bit extra on for doing feeds & hay nets. Obviously they would need to pay for feed, hay & bedding on the top of this charge.

we pay 2 pound for each service, so £2 - muck out £2 feed/turnout £2 bring/feed £2 rug change in field etc - that way if she asks for more as time goes on you just keep adding the £2

my yard includes am turout in livery fee, but an extra £6 to do evening( which i've only done when on hols).
i would happily pay £10 day.
i would say £30-£40 would be a fair amount to turnout feed and muck etc for 3 days a week.but i suppose it depends on type of yard, how many rug changes, and type of horse to do.

Full livery at my yard is £10 a day on top of diy. Not sure if that helps

A lot of yards charge somewhere around £10 per day for part livery - or £70/80 per week for full time part livery.

As she only wants it 3 days a week, and she is a friend I would either charge something like £20 a week more than she is currently paying - that works out as just under £7 extra per day.

If she was paying £30 per week for DIY, that would then make it £50 per week, which seems fair to me based on the full time part livery costs of lots of yards.

I used to charge £10.00 per day for t/o, muck out ,rug change, bring in , feed and poo pick.
