The Avenue

[Dean Lofthouse]

Been working with my mate this week felling and removing an avenue of around 70 mature trees. Got about 60 of them done in two days but the site is getting a little muddy now which is slowing things down. Every single tree bar one is being felled.

 

We skidded the first 30 trees out with the landy and an L200 and got the tractor in for the second day.

 

This is the beauty of getting to know local Tree Surgeons.

 

The job is one friends, me and another friend are subbing in doing the work and another tree surgeon came with the tractor and trailer to take away the timber. So four local tree surgeons working together and using each others kit.

 

Its the future

Nice work, and I agree, its the way forward.

[Dean Lofthouse]

The others aren't Arbtalkers Liam..

 

I was going to take the wood Bob but I have enough and the yard move might be early next year so there was no fighting, but there was more than enough to go round, there's another tractor and 10 tonne trailer coming tomoz

Looks a nice job to get your teeth into, Dean.

 

Collaboration with other firms is often mutually beneficial, if you can find the right guys to work with.

 

Better to have a slice of the pie rather than cutting each others throats to have it all.

 

It works well, as long as there isn't too many chiefs....

Thats how I work down here,got four other independant climbers/cutters.We chip in for the big stuff,& split for the small.

Works perfect,reduces overheads,keeps you flexible.

Deffo the way forward imo.
