CHETS crane and crew set up for a difficult tree removal

RIGGING & CRANE-ASSISTED WORK

A Deliberate Plan for Trees That Cannot Simply Fall

Limited drop space changes the job. CHETS plans the sequence of cuts, rope paths, landing zones, crew positions, and equipment access so each section has a controlled next move.

WHEN THIS SERVICE FITS

Start with the tree, the property, and the work zone.

  • Tall or heavy trees with very little landing space
  • Trees beside homes, garages, fences, roads, or landscaped areas
  • Unbalanced, damaged, or hung-up sections that need controlled movement
  • Properties where conventional equipment access is limited

WHAT'S INCLUDED

The cut is only one part of the job.

CHETS scopes the work around access, control, property protection, material handling, and cleanup—not just getting wood on the ground.

01

Site-specific sequencing and equipment planning

02

Sectional dismantling and rope-controlled lowering

03

Crane-assisted lifting when it is the appropriate method

04

Ground coordination, brush processing, and cleanup

HOW THE WORK MOVES

A practical sequence from first look to cleanup.

  1. STEP 01

    Walk the site

    Confirm access, obstacles, tree condition, and workable equipment positions.

  2. STEP 02

    Build the sequence

    Plan each section around balance, rigging, lift paths, and the next cut.

  3. STEP 03

    Control the pieces

    Lower or lift material into managed landing and processing zones.

  4. STEP 04

    Finish the site

    Handle debris and complete the agreed cleanup before leaving.

ESTIMATE FACTORS

Why an on-site look matters.

Photos and a description help start the conversation, but the work plan depends on the actual tree, access, obstacles, and cleanup scope.

  • Tree height, canopy spread, and wood weight
  • Rigging complexity and available anchor points
  • Crane access, setup space, and reach
  • Traffic, neighboring property, and cleanup logistics

COMMON QUESTIONS

Does every difficult removal require a crane?

No. Some trees can be dismantled with climbing and rigging; others are better handled with crane assistance. CHETS recommends the method that fits the tree and work zone.

Can CHETS work with limited backyard access?

Often, yes. Access width, slope, overhead obstacles, and material-removal routes are reviewed during the estimate so the plan reflects the actual property.

REQUEST AN ESTIMATE

Tell CHETS what you see on the property.

Include the tree location, nearby structures, access notes, and what changed. CHETS will follow up to discuss the site and next step.
