    So the old series of axe men was to much pre scripted over the top crap to tolerate. Watched the new series the other Sunday while I was house bound and wasn’t a bad watch. The tree climber guy is a right tool and makes out every tree is rotten and dead despite having a full healthy crown but the forestry stuff is actually worth a watch for the machinery if your into that sort of thing History channel it’s on

    Arb truck hire

    roseyweb replied to Noreen's topic in Arb-Trucks

    What size? I rented a roro lorry for chip from a firm who’s name escaped me mfh or something and I usually get a transit cage tipper and line it with debris netting when a van goes down.

    Out transit from sticking it on a weigh bridge has a 600kg pay load with basic tools in the cab, great for buddleigh removals and carrying tools that’s why we have a lorry cuz trees are heavy like.

    How often would property or life be in danger? I often see over excited tree folk saying emergency tree work, unless it’s a tree about to topple onto a hospital full of people who can’t be moved it’s rarely a emergency. In my 15 odd years and countless call outs I’d only every put one of them down as a genuine emergency call out and that was a tree which had split out over numerous houses. most emergency trees can be downgraded with a bit of barrier tape

    I'd still consider that in the small chipper catagory, We run a TW230+190 and they are still the bread and butter chipper for us but not big as per the OP's post.

    Surely a bandit is the winner Ours is looking a bit knocked about now but does everything, can hand feed, digger feed, is great for big take downs and thorny material would't be without it. Its looking a bit rough now and was planning to trade in but can't be bothered with add blue and funky engines so I plan on stripping her down soon and tarting up and sure she will look like new. - Tree Surgeon Kettering Tree Surgeon in Kettering, Tree removal specialist

    We pick up timber for local tree guys around here as were the only tree firm around northants with a grab that i know off, It works well for us as we have a big chip heap get paid at both ends and a good chance to have a chat with other firms. Shame lincoln is a bit far for your mate to go from wales, At this rate i'll have to drive up there in mine
  9. roseyweb

  10. roseyweb

    Has anyone got a grab lorry near Lincoln who could grab and dispose of a small load of willow from a development clearance for us, save me hauling my lorry up from down south. wood is at roadside. Thanks James

    That will be a amazing set up, I never got what the importance of double drive was until I saw a Jenkins lorry skating across my yard the other days

    Its on my to do list, a fan would be a easy fit there, I took the bit of trim of to give a bit better air flow but the rad is tiny, when my fitter is back to good health its the first job for him, I love those Bobcat E26's and I think there the best 3tonner having driven nearly all of them for numerous reasons, except the tiddly rad
  14. roseyweb
    We have one our E26 Its a fantastic tool, but it doe's over heat the hydraulic, it gets to 70'+ very quickly so flailing on a hot still day

    That's cheap for a road closure, I paid £1,500 to close a road around here on Sunday. That's before I paid the TM company to put up the closure, signs and diversion. sticking up traffic lights is free but you need a permit still, we loose a lot of work as we don't do bodge TM and usually the next week we will see the local landscaper with a transit blocking the path and raining branches in the road.

    Ay the best subbies have all there kit in a fiesta van, live free and work hard and love there job, The ones with a van or a chipper will usually be nicking/attempting to nick your work in a year or two after harvesting your contacts

    ay we saved a fortune getting a private assessor we got needed a few simple tickets doing to plug a hole in our training, chipper, brush cutter, stump grinder, got 4 blokes through all of them for almost the same as what it would of cost for one at our local training place

    10-15p/tonne fell and stack 8-10 p/tonne extract adjusted depending on material Twas the prices a few years back I'd expect them to have gone up since then, unless forestry has gone like arb and its less

    Yer that hour I spent filling in a olicence form two years ago was so sapping have to fill in a taco daily which I usually do while smoking my breakfast roll up

    It's a pointless question, with respect a commercial client I'd double that but they would't moan about vat up in the north someone would do it to stave of the deathly cold, round here some hipster fresh out of college with kit bought on daddy's credit card would do it for Instagram likes
