Tree Trimming Tools
When hedges, shrubs, or the branches of a tree seem to be overgrown and are preventing other plants from receiving sun, it’s time to consider tree trimming. To properly trim your trees, you will need the right tools. Here are some great tree trimming tools to use:
- Pruning shears: Pruning shears are like scissors intended for cutting branches.
- Ladder: To reach the higher branches, you will need a ladder.
- A pole pruner: If you don’t have a ladder, a pole pruner is designed to reach those higher places.
- Gloves: Proper gloves will protect your hands.
- Goggles: Google will prevent your eyes from getting leaves or parts of the tree in them during the process.
These are just some of the tools you’ll need for trimming the trees.
Tree Removal Tools
In addition to the above tools for tree trimming, there are other more specialized tools that you will need in order to remove a tree:
- Hard Hats: Sometimes called PPE, (personal protective equipment), something we all have grown accustomed to hearing about, hard hats are designed to keep your head safe during the whole tree cutting process.
- Chainsaws: In order to properly cut down a tree, you need a proper saw, and nothing is more suited for cutting down a tree than a chainsaw. A chainsaw should be used when a branch is more than 3 inches in diameter.
