Pine Tree Removal

Right now, we are about halfway done with the large pine tree removal project. The workers came early this morning and at precisely 9:00 a.m. started the chain saws. In my neighborhood, they are not allowed to start earlier.

Step by Step – Pine Tree Removal

The first thing the workers did was to position the trucks nearer to the large pine tree. Since there is a road behind the house, the workers parked the trucks back there. It was easy to remove one section of the privacy fencing to allow easy access to the property and the pine tree.

The big trucks are positioned near to the large pine tree.

Then, one worker worked out of the cherry picker basket to carefully cut down each pine branch. The below workers would then pick up the branches and feed them into the woodchipper.

The next step was to cut the large tree trunk into smaller pieces.

The large tree trunk was cut down in manageable pieces. When they got down to the bottom of the tree, the worker got out of the cherry-picking basket and worked from the ground.

One of the last steps was to remove the large logs from the lawn. The large logs from the trunk were too large to put into the woodchipper.

The logs are rolled up the hill and placed on large truck.

The last steps were to use a wood-chipper to remove the large trunk and the surface roots.

The stump grinder makes fast work of the remaining stump and roots.

Ending Notes on Pine Tree Removal

All in all, these tree removal specialist workers made fast work of removing a large pine tree. Now all that is left is grading the area and adding the rolls of sod, plus a good watering.

The soil must settle a bit before adding some flowering shrubs. Wow, I can hardly wait to pick out some nice flowering shrubbery. I’ll keep my Readers posted as to what we decide to go with.

A Big Thank You to Merrifield Garden Center for doing a Nice Job with Removing this Large Pine Tree.

Note: I briefly tried counting the rings of this large pine tree. I know it was at least 30 plus years old.
