What's better work/money? Tree surgery, firewood, forestry?
John Shutler replied to Lukey boy1's topic in General chat
regardless of which is best money/ less work etc the question is do you want to climb trees? you may not have a natural ability for it -
kanga cant lift a lot compared to boxer or Vermeer that video isn't really fair, they are two completely different systems and so arnt really comparable, plus im not sure ive ever driven over a pallet with my boxer boxer are hopeless at returning calls but when you actually get hold of them their service is very good and the machines are brilliant

david, if most of your work is currently grass cutting, hedging and small treeworks im not sure what this thread is for, just keep doing what your doing and a business will grow however without experience and some major investment on the equipment front you wont be doing large scale treeworks anytime soon and I hate to break your bubble but banks don't tend to loan large sums of money without a proven track record and even then its not easy these days. A tree business is not going to be handed to you on a plate!!
