I'd like to think it's just our turn and we've been very unlucky. It tough out there at the moment and people are doing silly things to earn a quick buck. If other people weren't willing to buy without doing the checks then there wouldn't be a market for them to supply to! One of our Managers got offered a chipper "for cash" with "no receipt" the other day and went straight to the Police. That said, naturally we are undergoing a full review of our security as I type. It never ceases to amaze me the support arborists give each other when the chips are down. Thanks guys and keep'em peeled... Regards, Terry Doyle Regional Director - SW Glendale

Evening All, Just a heads up, we got hammered over the weekend at our Helston depot in West Cornwall. 2 x Timerwolf Chippers 18 x Chainsaws of various types, Stihl top handles and Husqvarna ground saws. I will update in the morning with type and serial numbers but if you’re offered anything please pm me or contact the Police. Thanks Terry Doyle Regional Director Glendale

We always get the groundwork guys to dig the pits and back fill with tree compost so we only have a soft dig when our guys turn up to plant. Reduces the risk of surprises and speeds up the planting process. Give Joe & Deric a call at Civic Trees for semi matures. compost, planting specs and general advice. The orginal and still the best!!! Civic Trees - Large tree supply, moving and relocating :: Civic Trees

Hi Kev, EcoSci can deliver good quality compost and can arrange the screening so that it is woody. 160 cubes can be easily processed and they can arrange delivery. The transport will put the price up a bit as they will have to haul from Exeter but we deliver to 5-6 Nurseries around the M25 who find it cost effective. If you call Dave on 01392 441093 or visit Glendale Recycling – Glendale South West for more info. Regards Terry
