Andy and his bucket truck were out at that job site today with us. I was surprised to see them on the same day we were scheduled but it worked out good for everyone as the HO kept growing the job. Andy was training his wife on the bucket also and some rigging. She was happy as a clam getting to...
Currently I am waiting on the HO to return from OOT. I have called Andy and given him a heads up... If he and the HO decide I should go ahead and do it.. I will... I still think the bucket would be the better call on it and much more safe for the structure and efficient. I will refuse the tree...
