Site access

Gate width, slope, soft ground, and overhead lines at both ends. Arkansas crews price extra time for Ozark grades and narrow river-bridge crossings.

Foundation and blocking

Re-leveling on new blocks or a gravel pad is usually included; a new concrete pad is not.

Disassembly

Sheds wider than the legal limit may need the roof removed or be moved in sections, which adds labor.

Scheduling

Late spring through fall; wet delta winters limit field access

Backhaul luck

Haulers already running near Jonesboro bid lower to fill empty miles — posting early exposes your job to more of them.
