Jobsite Information
* Jobsite Address(es): (Please mention if multiple locations are planned, even if you don't have the address yet)
1).
2).
3).
* Crane arrival time to the jobsite (preferably 8:00 am): (Gives you time to prep the site for my arrival and school/work has started, less cars/traffic around the jobsite)
* Distance from setup location to the tree(s):

- Max horizontal distance for medium sized trunk picks = 67' - 1,819 lbs capacity (1,273 lbs for tree work).
- Max horizontal distance for small brush picks = 81' - 1,356 lbs capacity (900 lbs for tree work).
- At 72 feet away from crane rotation point, my max reach is 75 feet vertical. With a capacity of 1,642 lbs (1,149 lbs for tree work)
- Max vertical angle is 80 degrees, about 15' from crane rotation. At 80 degrees and fully extended (105 feet) capacity is 1,102 lbs (771 lbs for tree work).
- Tree work lifts should target for 70% of full capacity.
- Capacity ratings do not include the 600 lbs for the sawhead.
- See more details here --> chart/diagram
* Will the spar(s) be flopped once they are grapplesawed to 18" in diameter, or will the spar(s) need to be lifted via crane slings:
* Additional Notes: (Total number of trees to be removed, Tree species, Tree's general location on the property and tree species, Line drop or power shut off job, Other potential concerns/problems, etc.)
- Bartlett Tree - target ratio or hours split between the job locations, for invoicing purposes.
- Allows me to "stalk" the job on google maps, so I am not coming in completely blind on the job. Might also allow me to address concerns about the job, prior to arriving.
To keep my base price low for easy trees/setups but yet account for more advanced trees/setups, which have higher risks to the crane or to the property, there is a surcharge for the scenarios below. Since most surcharges are daily, avoid multi-day bookings if the surcharge only applies to a single day.
Surcharge Items
* Is the setup location on grass/dirt: (Truck weighs 53,000 lbs...26.5 tons)
Click triangle to expand the details
- The truck and outriggers should have a 1:1 set back from basements and retaining walls.
- Example: For 6 feet of depth, I should stay 6 feet away from the wall with the truck or outrigger pads
- Truck will not cross or setup on any septic field, and all field/tank locations have been verified with the homeowner
- Increased risk due to: more stability issues after setup, sliding/getting stuck, higher potential of underground voids, often less even terrian, etc
NoYes ($100/day)
* Setup is on a slope over 5 degrees (8% slope or a 25" rise/fall over 24', or there is a +2' ditch/dropoff within the outrigger footprint)
Click triangle to expand the details
- To determine if I need to bring along extra cribbing/supplies, beyond what I always have on the truck. All tires must be touching the ground or on cribbing.
- 7 degrees is my max angle at this time. Anything more than a 7 degree slope will likely require extensive cribbing/ramp building to multiple axles.
- 1 degree equals a raise of about 5 inches for the front or back of my truck.
- With the truck at 5 degrees (the working limit of the truck), I don't want to be fully stretching out and/or reaching a far distance perpendicular to the slope. Both scenerios put a lot of side deflection on my boom
- See more details here --> Slope Chart
NoYes ($200/day)
* High Risk work or Insurance work (Regular schedule work)
- CHT Crane maintains the right to add this amount to a job location/invoice, if the tree(s) fits the High Risk guidelines
Click triangle to expand the details
- Tree(s) is laying on a structure
- Tree(s) that are unclimbable or unriggable, due to the structural integrity of the tree. Relatively small trees dont qualify unless in a high target zone.
- RV Campgrounds - if we are using the grapplesaw above RVs/trailers. All RV/trailers should be moved from worksite, if possible.
- Jobs where you increased your own price due to the hazard nature, scope of the work, or tree's location
- If your booking is for multiple locations/trees, half day can be selected if only one part of the day is High Risk
NoFull day ($200/day)Half day ($100)
Grapplesaw work is not a static operation. So, there is some potential for small limbs to break and fall from the tree, especially dead limbs. It is the tree company’s responsibility to protect/cover/remove any landscape lights, driveway lights or skylights under the tree canopy and work area. CHT will try to minimize any breaking and falling limbs to the best of their ability when there are buildings and fragile items in the work zone, but we are not responsible to cover and protect them. If you would protect them in some way while rigging a dead tree out above them, CHT expects you to do the same when you bring us to the jobsite. CHT is also not responsible for any driveway or lawn damage caused by the weight of the truck or CHT work operations, if you ask us to drive on to them.
