Correction- it shows Foxwood in stock.£4800 nearly. Bit dear when a Chinese equivalent for £3k less- albeit cheaper components.

We have a year old CS100 coming into stock shortly. 2 years warranty remaining.

Hire request for a narrow access job

 

I have a job in Cobham. Out of area for me but a nice days work in pocket of council woodlands in the town centre. Conservation area job, permissions have been granted but with some restrictions around access / waste removal.(Original plan was for habitat piles but council have forbidden that) The woods is completely encircled by other properties, chip can be sprayed in the woods but my chipper is too big to get in there. 

I have had no joy with hire companies on finding anything narrow access that will still chip 4 inch branches. Anything bigger I will remove as logs. 

 

Does anyone in that area have a CS100 or other decent narrow access chipper that will cope with chipping up to 4 inch branches. Happy to hire just the chipper or with operator if that suits you better. 

 

Thanks in advance

Camberley is a bit far from both me and also the job but had a look anyway. Seems they just have normal chippers for hire.

The hunt continues

Did this willow a couple of weeks ago, friends TW165 out of action so we put it all through the M500. Willow is nice and soft, chomped it all up, two loads of chip. Wish I'd taken more photos of the petrol winch in action, was very handy for pulling stuff back in from the brook side.
