Compact tractor will pull more then quad.

If you land up winching them out leave a high trunk at top of slope so you can mount a pulley up it to stop butt end digging in.

I bet it's cheaper just throwing men at it.. 9 times out of 10 when looking at awkward access jobs I end up just using people. You can hire quite a few able bodied men for what ever it costs to hire a crane... Certainly a lot less risky, less likely to cause damage and the clean up is easy with lots of guys..

You forgot to add, set deck chair up and watch and point :thumbup:

thanks for the ideas folks, burning isn't an option, this is a very posh area and the police would be called immediately.

 

Why would the police be interested in a bonfire?

So long as it's safe and under control people have nothing to complain about?

You know what people are like scbk.

Burning is totally legal, but it can't be 'nuisance causing' and green conny produces a lot of smoke.

I'm with Ben, extra bodies and a second truck to keep the flow going.

Start at the top and keep the brash drag in the duff so you needn't hammer the lawn further down.

14' is pretty wide, there will be some volume.

Add the required bodies to keep the chipper fed and you'll smash it in a day.
