Chip has to be removed.
cul de sac at back has , cranky ladies,French tree huggers, guesthouse,
city council parking spaces, powerline ,fancy wall, 4 feet higher than site
We have to stack the timber back there with mini digger and reach in with tractor/crane Saturday morning when cul de sac is quiet .
This way, 2 lads are climbing steadily and rigging where necessary.
digger is keeping drop zones clear ,
chipper noise is at clients house and not beside cranky ladies.
each crew member working nice and steady and hydraulics doing the heavy dragging and lifting.
 


If grabbing over the wall for timber, chip into a pile and grab that away using the same grab?

no drag = win

Bloody hell! Yer a millionaire, with all them small Bisley filing cabinets. Since I tried to buy a couple for the wife I know what they cost.

I've always thought they were as good as money in the bank. Most of them however I paid aroudn £40 for- prices seem to have shot up recently.  The best purchase was a pair of the thirty drawer ones for £60!

Crane wouldn’t have reached. There was a wall , then a 2 meter shelf full of hawthorn, then a four foot drop and a dry stone wall.

 Clam grab would work well on some sites though.

also a lot of the time saved on dragging would be used up loading the chip with the grab.
