Recommended Posts

Hi all, i was hoping i could ask you guys with many years experience to help me quote on this big mac removal?

Its in a driveway so a crane could get in and its over next doors drive too. i have a yard to the wood can go back there and thinking of employing a lad with tractor and timber trailer for that job. less mess on the guys drive and quicker removal of wood that i can process back at the yard.

Tree is pretty big and is being removed due to splitting and delamination and limbs falling through out the year.

Any assistance most appreciated thanks guys.

Thank you guys. yes you maybe right about just rigging the wood down in large chunks and loading straight onto a trailer back to the yard.

I'd crane it.Swing the lengths onto the Trailer with the "leaves" hanging over the end,cut the green bits off.Repeat and you will have a loaded Trailer and a pile of Green bits.

And then revel in the loverly loaded trailer,sap-less hands and valuable timber you have gained.

 

Macrocarpa is used back home for building Boats,making furntiture as well as cracking firewood.

 

Looks like a good job:001_smile:

What Mike said. I've done hundreds of Macrocarpa in the past (they tolerate salty coasts well) and a crane is invaluable. I would have that job done in about 3 hours with a small 20 tonne city crane.

 

3 hours, nice job!!

Yes i hope I/we can get the job, it looks like fun compared to Leylandii!!
