    Would you use collateral for a loan?

    Thank you for your reply. They said interest rate would still be within their standard which is up to 9% which I guess is not the best but also not the worst. I do not have the all the money and it is just tied up in something else but I am also paying myself enough to live this year for the...

    Would you use collateral for a loan?

    Is there any bad things that go along with offering collateral for a loan... other than they will take all of your stuff if you do not pay them back? The rep for the financial institution that I am talking to is making it sound unappealing and did not even want to offer it. I do not plan on not...

    Plywood on steep driveway

    I was putting off even sending this bid out because even with that plywood I feel I might crack the driveway and did not explain that to them that as a possibility. I cracked my first sidewalk, the customer didn’t care as it was already in ruins but I was not anticipating it and it was a...

    Plywood on steep driveway

    I like the idea of belaying it down. I don’t think that would take much time to set up. I’m sure it doesn’t need much. Maybe just an f350 and a porta wrap at the top of the drive way would be fine.

    Plywood on steep driveway

    Stupid question I hope someone will answer for me... When putting down plywood on a steep driveway is there any chance of it shifting or sliding when driving down it especially when braking? I have never felt the need to plywood a driveway for my bucket truck. I just bid on a job where they...

    First chipper...decisions

    Do you think the 145hp is overkill? This is going to be my only chipper. My main concern is fuel usage but the 89hp might not keep up. I was quoted $68,000 for the 18xp 165hp gas with all the options but it’s probably too heavy for my 7.3 f550 with 20 yard box. I don’t want to tear that truck...

    @DTS What were you quoted for that chipper? I was just quoted $48,500 for the 145hp 12xp with all the options. It seems kinda high.

    Signal Lines

    Yeah normally we do but sometimes it’s just not practical so I thought it would be nice to be able to take it down ourselves

    Signal Lines

    That’s what I thought... I’m not knowledgeable enough about these lines to want to mess with them but it would be so much easier if we could take them down ourselves instead of having to set up for them to come out. I’m talking about 2hrs to get the work done with no cables 4hrs with cables...

    Signal Lines

    How do you all go about taking the signal lines down if they are in your way to where it is not practical to work around them? We have always set up whatever service to come out and take it down for us. A couple of the techs lately have been saying we should just cut it and then call to have...

    WTB: Knuckle Boom

    Long shot... I have been looking for a while for a 60' reach knuckle boom loader truck with a 12-14' dump bed and a single rear axle. I have not been able to find what I am looking for and this is not worth the extra cost of buying the parts separate and building one. I am just hoping someone...

    Throwing a big ash top

    Hi Daniel, I would love to pay for some of you educational videos. One of my favorite videos is the "Efficiency in Tree Removal" video. There were a lot of good ideas in there. The video also made me pay more attention and start finding other inefficiencies and how to fix them.

    Ground Damage

    Hello, I am curious how you all explain to a customer that the lawn is going to take some damage: dents, divots, track marks. I am not talking about the lawn being destroyed but just essentially removing the tree in the most practical way possible.(dropping everything that can be dropped...

    Dingo Overheating

    Hello, How do you fill a radiator on a dingo? I was having some over-heating problems and tried filling the coolant but only got the dingo to stop over heating once I found an air release valve on the top of the radiator. I am wondering the order in which you fill the radiator and release the...
