WTB smaller-sized chipper.

southsoundtree · May 17, 2017

Curious if anyone has a chipper to sell in the PNW.

I'm thinking ideally a Brush Bandit or Morbark 8-12". Even consider a 6" with a wide-throat, possibly. I have tight access spots and a light machine means moving the machine to the brush more often, and chipping into the wood.

$8-15k ball park.

Thanks

I'm looking for the same thing if anyone has the same thing in new England

I have exactly what you are looking for. Look on Treebay title Solid WC17.

I have a 99 brush bandit 250 XP located in NJ
Approximately 1000 hrs Cummins BT 4

I went over the whole machine last year sand blast to bare metal then paint along with new brakes and upgraded electronic auto feed then bought a 1590 found one with a tier 3 and the 250 has sat ever since.
Price is 22,000.00 firm comparable machines are going for 25k
Mint condition

Seems like sooo much more equipment on the east coast.

Try getting shipping quotes from you ship. It's pretty reasonable I have used them before it's a free quote from them also.

Make a treebuzz road trip. I'm sure there are guys all along the way that can put you up for a night, have a BBQ and you can move on the next day. Don't need much to tow a little machine you are looking for a gas sipping half ton pick up!

I've got a bandit 90 with 65hp Wisconsin. Late 90's unit.
Winch!
Spare good motor (for insurance and robbing parts as needed from)
In upstate NY
Chipper and spare motor 1st $7k...(motor alone with core would cost over $4k)

If I had the time, it would be a different story. I'd have to add in the lost income to the purchase price. Company doesn't work while I'm on the road.

I think a good shipping service, with free quotes, would grease the wheels on many Treebay purchases.

Let me know.

thx.

I have a 2013 Terex Woodsman 730 for sale on Treebay. It's priced a little higher than 15k. but it is in great condition with only 512 hours on an 84 hp kubota motor.

I am in Virginia but I sold and shipped my previous F550 chip truck to someone on the buzz that is in Oregon last year.

Can you please take pictures & also
Some measurements?

Specifically, the distance from the rear of the tires to the front of the hitch?

cedar · May 23, 2017

I will measure the distance from the rear of the tires to the hitch tomorrow. If you want to send a PM with your number I will text a few pictures tomorrow as well.
