Its about 9-10 ft high in places and is a mixture of species Its about 100 yards by 120yards both sides need doing its a domestic job for a house but mess isn't an issue.. Anyone got the kit ? And if so how much for someone for a few hours with the kit? Its in the outskirts of Gainsborough and Lincoln. Its more cost effective for all with tractor and kit rather than and cutting.

  17. Hi all, Obviously in the high winds and bad rain of last night trees fell blocking road paths etc. Now last night gave me a trip to the supermarket on on the return journey home a copper was parked up in the road with blues on. on looking it was apparent a Silver birch had fallen across a cycle path and one side of the carriageway. of course i stopped asked if he needed someone to clear up and get things moving. is response was yes please as the Highways crew are taking to long so of course after making things safe taping off etc we set to work and took logs away and cleared the road. council say yes to an invoice as the officer cancelled the highways crew and we did the work. question is whats the going rate to charge the council for: 2 of us 2 vehicles 2 saws cordon off etc Time Believe me we got soaked as well suggestions would be appreciated

    Jobs

    Hi all, I have posted on here in the past about this but not much joy, possibly due to the recession. I'm currently training at level 3 diploma in arb and forestry, and i would like to know if anybody would be willing and able to offer me a paid job with them. I don't have tickets yet but will be going for them once i can start to cover the cost of my journey to and from uni, and the expenses of the course. I have my own PPE, so you wouldn't need to worry about that, i'm willing to just pull brash to a chipper if needs be, but obviously if anything else can be don't i will accept. i don't mind chipping, i have transport in the form of a 4x4. i have already completed the level 2 course and passed with Merit, Last Year i have also had expirence with a tree surgeon a while back who moved out to Australia, He got me into this sector and i really really enjoy it. i'm on the outskirts of Gainsborough, about 15 minutes from Gainsborough, 20 from Newark, and 15 from Lincoln. If anybody can offer me a job fairly close by it would be highly appreciated and welcomed with open arms. if someone can help please do get in contact with me. Thanks again
  23. Oh theres plenty like that, But i dont see the point, its a very high risk to do it and also, what's the point in training to be an arb if all thats going to happen is be straight into bad practices.
  24. Hi Arborholic, its situated in the St Giles estate, it looks to be self set, but who knows, nothings going to happen until we know for sure. i don't fancy anybody getting a fine of £20,000:thumbdown:
