Brushwood Chippers
For the efficient disposal of branches and smaller diameter timber we use Greenmech Chippers. This produces woodchip that can be either left on site for use by the client or removed to our yard for recycling. The use of woodchippers is a fast and efficient way of clearing arisings from our sites and enables us to recycle a high percentage of what would have been waste. We estimate that 95% of our waste is recycled.
Timber Removal Equipment
- Tractor and Winch
- Lorry with timber crane
- Cat skid steer with forks and grab
With the above equipment, we can undertake jobs that require more than just ‘a man with a van’. It enables us to remove arisings from difficult to reach places, or even just allows us to complete jobs quickly and more efficiently which keeps costs down.
Stump Grinding Machines
We have a variety of different sized stump grinding machines that can dispose of stumps of any size in most locations. For difficult to reach areas or rough terrain, we have tracked machines, but for sensitive areas we have smaller wheeled machines that will travel over grass without marking. The smallest machine is 730mm (29”) wide enabling it to pass through most standard gates.
For Mobile Elevated Work Platform (MEWP)
In accordance with current health and safety regulations where possible we try to carry out work using a Mobile Elevated Work Platform. The use of these machines is a fast and efficient method of working and the price of the hire can be offset by the reduction in time to do the job.
Skid Steer Mulching Machine
The Caterpillar skid steer machine has various attachments. These include:
- Mulcher head
- Timber grab
- Loading bucket
- Forks
The Mulching head is ideally suited to carry out medium scale site clearance work, being both cost effective and efficient. It will shred small trees and hedges leaving a coarse chip that will break down into the soil.
The other attachments allow us to clear both branches and timber from the site and then also tidy any arisings that have been left.
