Not really double dipping at all as my time is dedicated to the customer wether I'm working in my shop of going to their jobsite. That being the case I charge by the hour wether I'm actually turning wrenches or a steering wheel headed to their machine. If I have to go out in the field to their machine then I also charge mileage to pay for what it takes to keep up the truck I use to get there. Given the size of the equipment I work on the customer is getting a deal because they don't have to pay to move their machine to get it to me.
Basically they can pay me a little bit to help me keep up the equipment I need to come to them or they can pay a trucking company alot more to keep up the equipment they use to move around the larger machines, along with paying for any permits, etc needed for the move. Often toe parmits alone are more than my fuel charge to and from a job. Not to mention the customer then has even more lost revenue on their end because the machine is down longer due to having to be moved twice, possibly dissasembled to move, etc, etc.
So, not double dipping at all, just fair compenstion for the guy doing the work.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
