Every situation is different. Some folks wont let you out the gate without paying.All the way to trying not to pay. I usually just have a conversation.I don't use 'contracts',and have never been burned,however some folks take a while to pay,but I always get my money.I usually charge by the acre,bale...Some small jobs get charged hourly.with one hour minimum.I don't charge for breakdowns,or normal wear. However if I hit a hidden post,or something,or some extreme circumstances,I charge extra to cover.If I hit a gate,fence,break a chunk of gated pipe,I fix or replace.Custom work can make you some good money,but It can really'bust your balls'too.You're also on '24 hr call'. folks call and want you there NOW. You cant do that.You have to schedule and plan. Some will get mad and call someone else.That's OK,those kind are hard to work for anyway. Do good quality work,charge a reasonable fee and you will get the work.Do good work,people wont care what kind of equipment,or how new it is.Good work brings repeat customers. I don't advertise,just word of mouth.'Custom operators' come and go.Only a few really stick to it.Good luck
