    Which to choose? Mini Skid Steer

    Bobcats attachments are great, so are there full size loaders etc. I have a great relationship with my local dealer. That said, the Ditch Witch is a better mtl. I have honestly never even been to the ditch witch dealer so I can't say too much about service etc. We order parts and have them...

    Which to choose? Mini Skid Steer

    We have a ditch witch 650 and a 750. Great machines. Owned a bobcat before and they aren't even in the same category as the Ditch witch. If your dragging brush with a grapple look at the ground speed in reverse.....imo the 750 could have a bit more hp but overall we love it. Ours go out every...

    MackCL713 truck

    I have always heard very solid feedback about Mack trucks. Also, we just purchased a crane as well with high hours......having the unit pre emissions was a huge plus. We also used the hours as a negotiating tool and were able to get the price down approx. the cost of an in chassis engine...

    Whats your most profitable way of disposing of/selling wood, chips, and debris?

    Farmers like chips for bedding because the the liquids drain through and solids stay on top making it very easy to keep clean. They cant be used for animals producing milk but pretty much ideal for anything else. Sawdust is expensive and in high demand around here because of all of the mills...

    Photography for your business

    I'm curious what a service like this would cost. Also wondering if you do any video? We have talked about having someone come in on the right job to shoot video (maybe from a drone or aloft) and take pics. It would be mostly for us to use in our marketing. We are in western MA.

    Cost to rear Mount a Forestry Truck

    ALC quoted me about 25k to do ours when they were still in biz. We ended up buying an elevator but it's not a bad option.......

    PERKINS PROBLEMS...low hour issue

    Bring the machine back and demand a loaner while they repair whatever is wrong. If they say no, tell them your going to call the manufacturer of the machine that they are selling. This kind of thing is unacceptable. Too often when the sale is done so is the service. I say hold them...

    Good for you man! Keep in mind that this is a really tough time of year to sell yourself so dont get discouraged if you feel like the works not pouring in. Around the holidays our calls and emails for work slow way down and we sell very little work. Jan gets a little better and by March your...

    Tree Climber Needed-Nantucket, MA-Housing offered

    Its true the grass is always greener.....We have built a solid biz here but it can be a struggle. Like most places the removal process is a very competitive market here. People do care about the trees......until they have to pay to preserve them, then we are back to step one. Definitely...

    I'm in the five college area of western MA. My family and I visit the vineyard at least once a year and we actually just came back from Nantucket. I have had a fascination with both islands since first visiting and I have this dream plan to start a division of my company on Martha's Vineyard...

    ISO 75 Foot Bucket Truck

    X2. This is the direction I'd be heading. The taste of the monthly payment for longer will be much easier to bear than down time and cost of some kind of big repair on the wrong used truck.
