I think this is the right place to post this...
This past summer I worked with a local tree company. I mainly worked with the owner so I learned a lot from him. He has been in the tree company and landscaping company for 40 or so years. I really enjoyed working for him and running the saws.
I started thinking that I wanted to do this for the rest of my life. Before tree work I was in the lawn care and landscaping side of the green industry. I have always loved chainsaws and ripping through a huge log.
Here is what my plan is; I am going to work for a small tree company this year so I can learn a lot more. During the summer I am going to add to my equipment and tree gear as time goes on. I will buy a chip truck and chipper next spring. I will also get licensed and insured… I am going to get the study material within the next couple of weeks to be a ISA cert. arborist.
I am currently looking for a ½ ton or ¾ ton truck because this summer I will still be doing lawn care and landscaping; and a little bit of tree work. I only want to spend about $4000 or so on a truck because I would like to but a nice chip truck and a chipper next spring.
What are your thoughts? I am asking this because you guys had to of started some where…
Thanks,
Nick
