    Ran across a good size removal job today. Talked to the lead man and he said take all you want we’ll load you up. 9A56E1D1-E5AD-4BB0-B069-D5640ED40822.jpeg 95F2009E-DA88-42B8-B6DB-6DB6C3EF20B8.jpeg It was hilarious. They have a lil John Deere 3032 with a grapple on it that probably weighed more than the tractor. It was on three wheels and just the front wheels a lot:rofl: :lol: 38A68375-166A-4D0C-806E-D41E552AF447.jpeg First load mostly elm. 6D67227C-B4DE-4E5C-A840-AF9D4368558F.jpeg Second load. 8419DE97-6E98-42D8-A261-FC0342B5FEBD.jpeg A lil casualty. Backed into a log. I’ve owned this trailer three days and had to have a tire fixed and broke this. :headbang:
    Gonna go back tomorrow for as many loads as I can get. About a 6 mile round trip.

    Awesome score there sir! :thumbs: Sure makes a hoarders day when they happen upon something like that?
    Too bad a bout the trailer light. Casualties of hoarding. Been a while since ive broken a tail light cover. Couple chips but still intact.

    Nice!

    Looks like trailer light at wally world would be a little less than $10.

    My experience is that here on Long Island it costs the tree service companies $100 per load to dump what they cut down. They chip everything under 18” dbz and dump the rest. They SAVE MONEY DUMPING IT AT HOUR HOUSE DOWN HERE. THEY ALWAYS LOOK TO GET RID OF IT. ASK AWAY!

    Got four more loads today. Mostly elm again but some maple. Didn’t get pics of all of it. D2FC1694-4C73-4698-AA1C-AC1BD1EC7E7F.jpeg 03EA555E-4B2C-47D3-9BE4-56A654429B5B.jpeg 4C799FE2-F70F-4052-8A4A-3C0455A1EB21.jpeg Also made a deal with them to dump all the brush cuz they didn’t have a place to take it local. In exchange they are going to take down a maple that’s leaning over my house. :thumbs: 1E6D41E4-205E-4857-B5ED-014C586D969C.jpeg These guys are hilarious! They really need a bigger tractor.:rofl: :lol: BAB99688-E0AD-41F0-AD7F-9536345FE38E.jpeg 39230250-B2CB-4894-AEF9-60B31E22F37D.jpeg
