The most exciting news!!!
So TreeCareLA has been in business for going on 6 years. We run a 4-5 man crew out of a 2 car garage. All our equipment is packed against the wall because we keep 2 cars in there every day. Chipper truck, pick up and employee cars get parked in the street in front of...
Trying to figure out why they require a particular rope as the replacement bridge for the treemotion harness.

California is in a major drought. It's changing my business. We spend as much time talking about watering as we do about pruning. In fact, when we talk about pruning it's usually "hey your trees are stressed. Don't prune them this year."
So I got this email from a dude I met last week. This is...
I have to drill a 7/16" diameter hole into a ¾" thick steel plate as the anchor for a cabling/guying project we're working on.
I've drilled holes in steel before...but never in something that thick. ¼" for sure. I've never bothered with any lube on the bits. I would just start small then...
Anyone ever used one of these services with good results? Karina has a 790 :\: but I got a measly 660. :|: I think it's pretty flawless, but 5 years ago I had a medical issue where I was getting dozens of invoices and a $45 one slipped through the cracks and got sent to collections before I...
Just had a carrier tell us they would cover us if we used more bucket trucks and less climbers.
Does that seem right? Just get irked every time I deal with an insurance company.

I think this would be a great topic for discussion. Let's post pics of utility poles and we can all take guesses as to how many volts are running through all the various lines. I have a basic idea of what I'm looking at when I see them- but it's an area where I'm sure many of us could use some...
So I got this truck. Totally love it. 2002 Chevy 4500. It's a cab-over. Technically speaking it's an Isuzu engine. But it's a chevy truck so I can pretend it's made in the USA...right?
Anyway- a while back it started making this hissing sound. At first it was only occasionally and if you...
It finally happened! We got the new 990XP

Here's my first time using it. The crew's had it a couple days now. I'm pretty sure it's a godsend.

I occasionally encounter this annoying situation. I wanted to see what you folks do in these situations. I'll describe.
So lets say I go out and meet a prospective client. I send them a bid. Maybe it has 5 items on it, ranging in price from $100 up to maybe $1,500. Lets say it looks like...

So we're looking for a new truck. Found this one

It's the model we want the way we want it, pretty low miles, only couple years old.... But the carfax shows this:
So...it has a history.
It blue books around $26,000. Carfax says...
48 and 52" DBH. I like the trees. This can be one of those threads where you all (especially Jomoco) tells me how dumb I am for not cutting them down. Have a look see

Not a super informative piece, but it's good that people are talking about trees BEFORE bad things happen..
