do you think it would work

[Charleton Chips]

do you think if i offered to pick up service for tree arisings from the job would it work.

[Tom2020]

For large jobs Yes Depending if you took a tractor and trailer along, this would save the guy a lot of backwards and forwards

 

Yes again if a non-local tree surgeon was in the area and would again save him having to take the waste back.

 

No as 90% of tree surgeons have some form of taking the waste away them self's Chipper or trailer.

 

No as you might no be able to change what another person will charge but that business there will always be some one lower then you.

 

My 2 cent on it.

what kind of vehicle what be good

[Treegeek]

I have wondered the same.

[Pete Hart]

This idea could work on larger scale jobs as Tom mentioned... if you can make logistics easier for a tree company then they may very well use you.

I can think of three jobs in the last two months where a tractor and trailer would have been amazing!!

Obviously you would need half decent access for tractor trailer combo, and the figures would have to stack up to make it worth your while.... so perhaps offer the service, dip your toe and see what happens! Good luck

[Mike Hill]

I think it would depend on how many Tree Surgeons there are in the area.The more firms,the more the demand.

[Charleton Chips]

could it work with domestic jobs (small)

[Pete Hart]

For me...with a small domestic job, i want the brash chipped as quickly and efficiently as possible, so that we can get cracking and move on to the next job. I think that established co.s with chippers etc would simply do the watse removal themselves.

My humble opinion is that this service would be better suited to co's without the means to chip etc or larger scale jobs.

[hazzygawa]

Don't they do that in Norway. You take all the brash roadside and a company comes along with a huge hiab arm to lorry and it pick it up. Then goes off to power station.

 

That's what I have been told by a lad working over there. He said hardly anyone has a tow chipper.

[Charleton Chips]

that would be a good idea but you would need alot of jobs for a grab
