Minus the last storm you dealt with, how many crane related removals do you have? And not talking pulling trees off houses .... humor me, I'm curious.

Around 30 or so, usually use a 60 tn grove. I know not as many as you. Still learning each and every removal. The operator we use is very experienced in tree work, haven't had any shock loading issues or wild swings ever. I do a lot of insurance/storm work, and lifting trees that are mangled to all hell and screwed up are more work to calculate and get off then a normal removal. Insurance co's want 0 collateral damage. I have done every job assigned with 0 incidents! We roll night/day, whatever weather, it gets done soon as we can get there. Worked with several different operators when mine wasn't avlor in different parts of the province (we go allover)in the last 4-5 years and having someone that works with tree guys is a definite plus for sure!
