Slightly larger trees can be moved according to species and soil types, providing adequate crown reduction is implemented.
Please note that some machines can be supplied with ‘flotation tyres’ for work on sensitive ground.
Other tree moving services
In addition to moving trees, our other services include:
- guying
- feeding
- anti-desiccant application
- pruning
- rootballing
- installation of irrigation pipes
- preparation of trees for future moving
- preparation of a comprehensive aftercare package
Transplanting larger trees
Trees too large or inaccessible to a Tree Spade Machine can be moved using the traditional ‘frame and crane’ method according to size, position and soil type. This involves digging around the tree and fitting a special frame which is then lifted by mobile crane either to a nearby position or onto a lorry to transport the tree to its new position where it is then lifted off and replanted by crane.
