Gravity!! Thats the biggest challenge in removing trees in difficult locations with lots of obstacles.

Removing trees with a crane overcomes gravity. It is fast, efficient and eliminates the need to remove fences and other obstacles. Also eliminates heavy equipment traffic on the lawn and prevents damage to valuable landscaping.

The tree in this video was one of those that would have taken probably more than a day with a bucket truck and very significant impact to the surrounding landscape.

We took this very large tree out in 8 pieces. It only took 2 hours and 3 minutes. Just a little over 5 hours to complete the job including set up, clean up and hauling it away.

Even for trees where you don’t need a crane, it’s still the fastest and most efficient way to remove the tree. That means less disruption for the homeowner and the neighborhood. It’s a win for everyone involved!

No fancy editing here, but I put a few clips together of a big oak tree we removed yesterday. It was behind the house with lots of nice landscaping around it. No access to it except from the neighbors driveway. This big limb over the house was 3400 lbs, about the same as a Honda Accord. At that weight and distance, we like to stand em up before we pick em off. We’ve got over ten years experience of removing trees with a crane. Big trees in bad spots are our specialty but we do lots of little jobs too.

I promised more content on our business page. The yellow in is Butter and Bumbles is the tuxedo cat My home shop cats. They were supposed to be shop / barn cats but theyre spoiled rotten and spend lots of time in the house during the day before bedtime when they go to the shop They follow me all over our property and always curious what im doing They keep me company while I’m sharpening saws, etc. I thought it was important that you know we rescue some cats with a portion of our tree revenue. We also have Twiggy who stays at the Madison shop. So 3 so far. 😊 🐈
