Our Approach

Navigate dangerous or challenging trees safely at the pull of a lever

We believe in using travel towers, which are also called cherry pickers or elevated work platforms (EWP). The mechanical advantage that we have on job sites when we arrive with and set up a travel tower or EWP can sometimes mean that tree work is completed faster, with less physical labouring (compared to climbing), and tasks can be completed by a wider range of our team members. All the advantages listed means that we can achieve more work, with greater efficiency, and often with higher safety, especially in dead trees.

Our EWP-Use Process

Cutting trees can be dangerous, so how will your team reach my tree branches?

We own and operate a tower or EWP that means that we can reach 23 metres high and have a 12-metre outreach.

The advantage of our 3.5 tonne machine is that it can be unloaded from our trailer and driven into people’s back yards, or tricky-to-reach front yard settings.

We have found that our machine has the potential to prune tall hedges where a climber or using a trestle ladder with planks is not a viable option.

We have also found that this machine has helped us safely and quickly position our team to formatively weight-reduce the outer canopy of Oak trees, prune the palm fronds and seed pods from Palm trees, and to cut down dead and defective Gum trees.

If our tower hasn’t been tall enough, and we cannot climb the tree safely, we have also used the service of a travel tower company to reach greater heights on the odd occasion.
