Helpful hints about tree care

Having the right tree equipment = safety & efficiency

Having the right tree equipment in the tree service industry can make a big difference when it comes to the safety and the efficiency of a tree crew.

In tree services you hear the terms “Boom Trucks or Cherry Pickers”, “Minis or Skid Steers”, or “Tree Chippers or Wood Chippers”. All of these machines can create a more efficient and safe environment for your hired tree crew to work in, when safety procedures are followed. 

If all tree services could be done from the ground, things would be far less complicated. But the truth is, pruning, trimming, or even removals demand that workers get strategic to access branches that are far off the ground. 

Taking down a large tree or even a large lead going over a home can benefit from having a “Boom Truck”. At J’s Tree Trimming & Removal, Inc. our “Boom Truck” can reach a height of 75’ feet and has a side span of 60-65’ feet. If a tree is taller than 75’ feet, the operator can use the bucket to get up to that height and then get out of the bucket to go the rest of the way.  

Having a “Mini or Skid Steer” available can make moving brush from a backyard to the “Wood Chipper”, likely parked in driveway or street, fast and efficient. 

“Tree Chippers or Wood Chippers” make the disposal of brush an easier task and also create mulch that the customer can lay in their flower or vegetable beds.

With all this said, every tree is unique and likewise every tree care problem can demand a unique solution. Having the right piece of equipment for the right job means your tree crew can work safely and efficiently.
