Looking new Isuzu or canter type things but open to suggestions Just don't want to still end up getting it too big and heavy so can't legally carry enough logs and chip.

agreed you need to do c then E to be able to tow as just looked into this. as a point do not do C1 which is 7.5t you may as well do C which is up to 18T very very similar and barely a difference in price ultimately C1 is only there for pre 97 licences that got the rights as been old rights

Cheers The garden law one is not truly my definition Is it not offer the branches back? Cheers for the offer Gary but I have a copy though if you would like to come over and explain all those long words that would be great:thumbup:

Where do I find a link to the definitive on removing overhanging branches and cutting back roots to boundary . Seem to find a lot of contradictory info on searches

I would imagine most of the cost is in the pit and sorting services rather the price of the tree I.e a tree in a street planter box ends up approx £600 and only £100 for tree At least last one I did cost that with the price of planter soil and fixings and labour So can easily see 1k in streetworks and proper pit preparation But yet again likely a minescule part of the full costs of the scheme

When I first started 27 yrs ago I used a hand ascender and it's a long time since I got my first foot ascender Admittedly changed a lot over the yrs Rope access and covers certainly had a big input As part of those it certainly brought me on.

Interestingly I am converted to containerised and gone of bare rooted Still not a fan of root balled as n the hessian and wire type as found they are often bare rooted with a bit of soil and not established in the ball Mainly get from a supplier in Suffolk that specialise in quality trees and found the tree form better and less hassle storing transporting and keeping stored and healed in.

I do take exception to the dig at local authority and big company's as generally they are tied to a set working day and I have found the crash it out and go home early are the smaller company's .. .???? In my experience there has been less pressure to get the job done within budget and the only bad accident (that I recall) I have ever had due to underpricing was a badly underpriced private job that was badly staffed and way way way underpriced and we did not have another spare day to finish it.. Which is generally not the issue for bigger company's I have seen a lot more understaffed and no signs cones ect and no exclusion jobs from little firms than the bigger ones Good points though:confused1:

The brighter and more garish mix of colours also helps and as said quality is not cheap But just remember your going to need beer tokens and get your priorities right.

Glad filming on phones ect was not common when I started No one even barely had a phone:blushing: I would like to see a factual investigation and a lot more background info such as why when and how And pics ect of the stumps Certainly looks like a few issues that when added together culminated in potentially a nastier ending Hope we all discus with our colleagues to try to prevent similar potential occurrences
