    The Industry of urban wood waste

    We chip all our prunings and sell it as arborist chips for our PHC and tree planting programs. Big money maker for us. It is a premium product and marketed as such. Go through all I produce every year. Sent from my SM-T818W using Tapatalk

    Come Sale Away with Me

    I think we as an industry need to get away from the 'sales arborist' concept completely. It should be a paid consultation where the client is paying for an educated professional to come and diagnose/identify issues and supply treatments or options to manage the situation. If I am having to show...

    Rapid spruce chlorosis

    If you are in heavy clay soils like we are here up north (Grande Prairie) with a lot of rain we had after such a super dry spring (wildfires in early May) it probably was weakened from 2 previous years of drought and then waterlogged.

    We normally meet at shop for 7 and get back at 5. Most jobsites are 20 minutes or less from our shop. 30 minutes for lunch if crew needs it, otherwise eat between jobs and take breaks as needed.

    Google Reviews Disappearing??

    I don't worry about the reviews at all. When you have lots it shows based on the great ones. Have one where we had them booked to give a quote for a tree Removal for about 6 weeks out from when they called. Not atypical for us to be that far out. She complained because she had to wait and gave 1...

    Clogger Ember - Chainsaw protection for the extreme cold

    If you don't do that here sometimes you won't work for 4 week straight. So yes we will. Sometimes we're just pruning and only using a top handle though and not the warmer work saws. Sent from my SM-A205W using Tapatalk

    Clogger Ember - Chainsaw protection for the extreme cold

    I'd love to try them here. -40 C tonight with the wind chill. If I had a pair earlier this winter I could have tried them in -50C. Not done yet. We may see more cold again soon. Sent from my SM-A205W using Tapatalk
