OK so a couple months ago I got a call to bid a BIG dead oak with extensive basal decay. Tree was leaning towards the neighbors house. The only way I could see to take it down was if we put the crane in the neighbors front yard, which was a mess anyway . Would have to come up and over an old...
An idea.....
what if there was a movement online to pick a presidential candidate from normal people. To start with people would nominate everyday people who they believe to be virtuous and above all not rich. They would have to be super smart and above all kind. By virtue of being not rich...
Anybody got any idea what kind of % people get for selling tree work
I am negotiating again to try to sell my business and the potential buyers want me to sell work for them
So Ive not been enjoying running a tree business for many years now. Back when I was the lead climber I loved tree work. Fast forward a few major accidents and I find myself not enjoying the day in day out drag of trying to keep everthing running. I recently lost my climber and hired a guy who...
After years of being busy all season the calls have stopped here. Guess folks a worried about inflation or some such.
Anyone else seeing call volume drop?
BIG shout out to Cory for driving out and taking a look at this old POS for me! Always sucks when you happen across a deal online and it doesn't make sense to go see it in person as it is so far away.
As some of you may remember I just got an even bigger chipper which weighs in at 17000 lbs !! I...
So as I am trying to figure out how to distance myself from the day to day running of our tree business to free up time for other pursuits ,it obviously becomes even more important to have good insurance coverage. Have any of you had your policies gone over by a profesional to see if they...

Ok so 2019 was a bad year for me all around. Started with the site I dump my wood where I had been operating out of for 15 years which is our local mulch place handed over the operation to their niece. Niece emails me in February and notifies me that my lease is up at the end of the month and we...
Looked at a really sketchy tree today, big tree with lots of cracking and decay in the base. Tree has moved and is going for neighbors house. Has anyone ever tried to get a waiver to basically say you will do your best but if the stump fails during the removal process it is out of your control...
I literally almost bought this!!

OK so we only have 1 Wraptor with Tanaka power train left, EVER
Shortly we will have them available with honda GX35 motors and a US made planetary gearbox. Small weight increase and a price hike which we still need to calculate.
Of the 1000 or so Tanaka units out there NONE have failed.
Just...
