right MEWP for the job

[madmatt]

I would never wish to encourage any one to do any thing they are not happy to do.

 

We must all make OUR own assessment of safety,based on OUR knowladge and experience.

 

We should not be influenced by what others may think,or try to influence the actions of others, imo.

 

Yep I'd agree with that!

There's always a reason trees can't be climbed Steve - usually boils down to a lack of something or other:bawling:

 

Well yeah, theres always reasons why some trees should'nt be climbed & for the lack of something well hmmmm....the will to leave my wife & my 6month old baby early to visit the big scrap yard in the sky springs to mind. My experience is telling me that if there is a safer way of dealing with these trees then i should taking that option,IMO

Very true.

 

Its not a macho thing,imo,its just about getting the job done in the most efficient manner.

We have used Nationwide access in the past,they were very good, they will do onsite assesments to tell you what works best. I'm fairly sure we got a 2 day hire from them too.

 

Cheers for that mate, i've used nationwide before but only got a minimum of 1 weeks hire which was ok cause it was 3 weeks work but i'll give them another try:icon14:

[madmatt]

No worries. seem's odd you can only get a weeks hire.
