This product has proved a remarkable success so far. Thankyou to everyone who made a purchase. I do hope it proved to be a good one. Please note the Arbor Trolley is now made in the USA and comes with flat proof tyres as standard. If youre a small company, or even a one man band such as I, the Arbor Trolley could save you a lot of time and effort. Ive had the one in the vid about 5 years now. Time flys.

 
we have put ungodly, laughable loads on our Trolley. As a crew of two guys, it is our THIRD man. the more creative you get when it comes to getting material on to the cart, the more it can do.
Thanks Reg, it has certainly proved well worth the purchase.
 
when felling a statue, look for ways to hold the stem up high enough to get the cart under it when it comes to rest, like pad log piles. or when felling a tree, if the stem is held off the ground, cut it up so you can slide the trolley under the longest piece of wood possible
 
A wide-felling cut might hold the spar on the stump, allowing the AT to be slid beneath, and carefully release the wood. Don't shockload onto the cart with wood. Obviously.
 
Right on Reg, thanks for developing the trolley ! We use ours almost everyday in conjunction with our mini skid for my 2 crews! If you don't have one ......get one !!!! They are worth the $ built tough and work tough !!!!

Maybe worth putting out some tips on use, everyone. We all figure stuff out. I like PVC extensions on the stakes.
Here's a couple of my tips .
I'm sure everyone knows to place the arbortrolley strategic ally so when lowering limbs on a line you lower directly on to er..but there I said it if you never did it ,hopefully you will now.. Just stay out of the damn drop zone and out from under shit coming down . Plan ahead , that s where the strategy part comes in . Pretend the rope will fail . Lay the limb down balanced on the trolley . and another if possible or if you take em like me you might only get one on ..then cut it up a bit to fit through the gate without tearing it down . Then when you take it to the chipper when you go to dump more strategy is helpful. Like remember ing the bottom of the pile is gonna be the top or more like the inside..how can I say this better.. place the bottom towards the chipper so its not a wrestling match to seperabale you piles. Arbortrolley likes strategy. I'm a chess player, so I like strategy too.

Reg, I could watch you put together a peanut butter and jelly sammich and enjoy it. It is obvious you take pride in your work, like August and others here do. It is good to see that type of attitude these days.

Stay safe, and what's with one eyebrow, mate? Looks like a woolly worm.
 
Hey Reg, where is my Arborella? I ordered a 100 custom Black ones with the ground spikes and I never received them. I know you just moved and they probably got misplaced but what am I supposed to do with all my throw lines now?
 
So, wait, you don't want to do the job of the ground, supporting the load, getting scratched up by brush carrying out 10 loads, walking back empty - handed ten times? ;)

On a downhill roll, gravity does a lot of the work, and saved 9 empty handed uphill trips for two empty cart, uphill trips.

PVC pipe extensions let you pile to the sky, if the room allows. Okay...7'. Feeding off the cart, as possible, is nice for working the pile. Less lifting.

It two guys are chipping, one works on the piles on the ground, while the other loads. When the full load arrives, both can work off the cart into the chipper from opposite sides. Then, one guy loads more while the chipper keeps eating.

AT, for the WIN!

I need your payment first. The goods will be delivered thereafter. Thanks
 
laid this stem on two logs we lowered off it before felling it. took our pivy, took the neck off the trolley, laid the trolley on its side, and rolled the stem and trolley over together. moved with ease, then slapped the winch on it. right into the chipper. easy $$$
thanks reg, now my employer will never get us a mini skid to move materialtrolley.webp
 
The company I work for is buying a arbor trolly this month..... Finally! I'm wondering what you folks do for cleaning up rakings or stump grindings, we use 30gal barrels and 10' by 10' tarps, both fit on our ball/log cart. I can see the tarps fitting nicely when folded/tacoed on the trolly, not sure the barrels will stand upright. Curious what your ideas and methods are for those fun tasks.

I drilled holes and used some twine for a hinge to join these boards at the bottom. Good for rakings and firewood too. These could be bigger but was all I had at hand.
