Merlo with grapple saw

[Page]

Looks like a company near me that I rent the 107’ platform lift from will be renting out a 96’ merlo with a grapple saw. That’ll make some jobs easier.

I'm amazed that they'll rent it out.
Takes some skills to use.

That sounds like an awesome opportunity for a rental.

I assume it’ll be like the crane where it comes with an operator

Ah, that makes sense.

Interesting that a crane company buys a Merlo, or are they a treeco

They are not a tree company exactly but cater to tree companies. The crane work they do is mostly trees. They also have several platform lifts 89’ and 107’, and now the merlo. It really has been great having access to all of this.

curious as to renting price on such a beast

Not sure about the rental price yet. They just got the machine and won’t be renting till after the new year. I imagine it will be similar to the crane pricing.

I told my crane guy he should get a seenebogan but I guess he's more than busy enough with crane work. He's got 17 of em and does alot of trees as well as GCW

GCW?

I was too lazy to type out general crane work.

And now look at you having to type out an explanation. That’s what laziness gets you😂
