Tree Climber Service

When to use Tree Climbers?

Usually, our customers for tree service will know when they require the use of Tree Climbers to perform various tree services, or related work. Our tree climbers are certified in the types of ropes and rigging to use when climbing trees, and we NEVER use spikes to climb trees, unless they are being removed and cut down completely. 

Climbing trees with foot-spikes is very damaging and stressful and should only be done on trees that are either damaged beyond repair, or slated for complete tree removal and disposal.  Our certified Arborists ensure that the trees we do work on are protected from any extra damage. 

The most common times people need a tree service Montgomery County PA that can send tree climbers are when the space is restricted and doesn’t allow access via a bucket truck. 

The specific jobs that require tree climbers are mostly the trimming and pruning of those high, extended reach branches. These trees are located in hard to reach areas.

Bucket truck access for tree removal service often requires alot of space. And when there is enough space for one of our large trucks, we first need permission from you to actually drive the truck onto your land. We don’t always recommend this, but we do our best to ensure our truck drivers don’t damage any part of your yard while we perform the tree service you need. 

Obviously, for jobs like stump removal or stump grinding, we don’t need to park our truck in your driveway, but we often do need to drive our large stump grinders onto your property. However, these pieces of equipment are meant to have a small, light footprint and are meant to be highly maneuverable when we need them to perform your requested job. 

Cost of Tree Climbers?

Contrary to what most people believe, using tree climbers for tree removal or tree trimming is cheaper than using a bucket truck or lift.  The main reason for this is that a bucket truck requires a 2-3 man crew to run, and also costs more per hour to run than one of our Arborists that can safely climb a tree and perform the work in a safe manner. Because we don’t need to send a full crew to perform the tree service near me, we can pass this cost saving on to you.

For the types of tree service jobs we normally see in Montgomery County and the surrounding areas, the cost for one of our tree climbers to perform a simple tree trimming service can be anywhere from $150 to $500-$700.  This all depends on the height of the tree and how many branches need trimmed and removed. It is safe to say that it will always be at least $150 for any sort of tree service that requires the use of tree climbers. 

Ultimately, what matters is that you get the proper tree care you need. That includes the type of work that suits your needs, as well as what fits into your budget. Montgomery County Tree is happy to work with you to work out a deal that makes everyone happy!
