Top Tree Removal Techniques

It’s interesting to watch tree removers at work because they use a wide range of techniques that help them cut down trees in a quick and efficient way. One of these techniques is rigging, which involves the use of ropes and pulleys to safely lower tree limbs and trunks after they’ve been cut. Proper rigging is important when dealing with large trees and/or when there’s limited space to drop off cut timber. Tree removal Palm Springs services, like eLandscaping, are knowledgeable about these techniques. As you can see from the video, you may want to leave these kinds of trees to them.

Tree removal companies use various rigging methods. As the video shows, one of these methods is tying the top section of a tree down to itself before cutting it down — also known as butt hitching. It works well both for small and large limbs but, for it to be effective, the arborist must know the correct knot types to use and the proper angles to take when making wedge cuts and back cuts.

Other Kinds of Tree Removal

Of course, tree removal isn’t always about cutting and felling trees. In some cases, it’s also about taking out stumps. This can involve manual processes (e.g. digging out the stump) or using tools like chainsaws and grinders.
